Breaking down the lyrical lessons, to solve, converse, and, understand life’s learned and unlearned behaviors.
Can we say GOD DiD, the merge of hip-hop and spirituality seems seamless and Forever store. The intertwining spiritual teachings and street knowledge has not always been apparent in Hip-Hop. How did we get here? First, I don’t believe this was in anyway detrimental to hip-hop. It was bound to evolve into a new way of bringing the gospel. Before you get upset or start sending me hate messages hear me out.
Jesus, Muhammad, Abraham, Buddha, etc were all teachers who they got the people to follow they spoke the people’s language. If you want to connect with the people you must know their language. That’s only one part of the second part they lived with the people- of course, this was of a different time. For current times it’s the same as doing constant work in low socioeconomic neighborhoods. This is God, Dj khali is not the first artist whose hidden spirituality among their words, Jay-Z Kanye West, Wu-Tang, OutKast, DMX and so many others made it acceptable to speak about believing in a higher power.
They wanted us down, ooh-woah
But look at us now, oh
They counted us out (Time to say a prayer, M-M-M—)
They didn't think that we would make it, oh (May we bow our heads)
They didn't believe in us, oh (Huh)
[Chorus: Fridayy & Rick Ross]
But I know God did, God did (Oh, yes, He did)
Oh, God did (Oh-oh, Khaled)
Oh, yes, God did (Oh-oh, Khaled)
Oh, God did (God is great)
But I know God did
DJ khali- God Did lyrics are about if anyone believed God Did, as well belief in self. In hip-hop the meaning of God is more than external, something people of color have used to guide them through traumatic experiences. People of color have cared a Scarlett’s letter around for many centuries now. Fighting against biases, bigotry, racism, mass murder, among many other negative perspectives people of color hold on to the belief God will make it work if anyone hasn’t understood their troubles God did.
I have a When I think of my own difficulties something keeps me going the belief what you are doing is right, if no one understands now God did. Music is a spiritual praise regardless of how it said it’s what is said that matters. How one praises or gives thanks through creativity is providing a piece of themselves to bless everyone with their triumphs and trials. To make it in the music
JID new album The Forever story was a look into One song in particular hit something that said to me God Did that in him.
Oh what a handsome gift, to live in a land of sin (yeah, uh)
Runnin' with bands and bricks, and my lil' nasty chick (uh, yeah)
That's what I asked of him, told me he'd grant my wish (yeah)
You dance with the devil, you never dance again
Dance now, dan-, dan-, dan-, dance now
Dan-, dan-, dan-, dance now
Dan-, dan-, dan-, dance now (I'm not a)
Dan-, dan-, dan- (I'm not a, uh)
Dance Now- bopping ditty with its not stop energy; putting something in ya feet kind of song but important song has a message of dancing with the “devil”, dancing with temptation when things are good or bad. The parts of one’s life that don’t believe it’s deserving self-sabotage outcomes that have been so tirelessly put in place.
