Never Forget

“Magdala Laments  (The Looted Treasures)”. This piece isn’t just a lament — it’s a coded indictment, a cultural reckoning, and a suite-ready movement built on ancestral rupture and resistance.
Magdala, Ethiopia — 1868. A sacred mountain fortress, home to Emperor Tewodros II and centuries of cultural, spiritual, and literary heritage.
🧨 Historical Event:
The British punitive expedition against Magdala. After conflict, British forces looted thousands of sacred items — manuscripts, crosses, shields, regalia — and transported them to the UK. These artifacts were never gifted. They were seized, auctioned, and archived in British institutions.
Narrative Arc:
Verse 1 – The Breach: Magdala’s sanctuary is violated. The lyric mourns the loss of sacred space and ancestral continuity.
Chorus – Emotional Core: A chant of grief for the scrolls, relics, and spiritual memory now held in foreign custody.
Verse 2 – Calculation of Cruelty: Exposes the cold, commercial mindset of empire — treating heritage as cargo, not culture.
Bridge – Museum Optics: Reflects on how looted treasures are reframed as “research objects” — erasing the violence of acquisition.
Outro – Coda: A slow fade into ancestral echo. Magdala’s lament becomes a ritual of remembrance and resistance.
🔥 Strategic Function
This lyric operates as:
A cultural indictment of imperial theft
A suite movement within a larger sonic architecture
A coded narrative reclaiming memory, voice, and ancestral truth

P.A.I.D. - ROCKIN EVERYWHERE (wit Booty Me Down intro)

Stereotypes are made to be broken. Steven Cooper has been breaking the mold of a typical rapper since the early 2000's when he appeared with Tech N9ne on the anthem "Broken Chains". Fusing pop and hip-hop elements with aggressive delivery and exceptional lyricism, Cooper has built a full time music career one fan at a time. Known as one of the hardest working indie's in the hiphop scene, Cooper has become a seasoned performer (over 500+ live shows), a prolific writer (features with Akon, Tech N9ne, and more) and an influence for many indie rappers through his company Unlabeled Records. 

Steven’s hit song “Bigger” features Akon and, at the time of its release, broke into the top 100 downloaded singles on iTunes. His single "Born To Do" also charted on the Top 100 on iTunes after being used in the 2015 NFL Pro Bowl as the opening and ending credit song. He has been featured alongside notable artists such as Tech N9ne, Kid Rock, David Cook, MC Hammer, Naughty By Nature, Bubba Sparxxx and many others. Cooper’s catchy anthems have been featured nationally on ESPN, FOX, CBS, MTV, VH1, ABC Family, and many more. He has performed both nationally and internationally at distinguished venues and festivals. 

Born in the Midwest, Steven was raised by his young mother. His father disappeared before Steven was born. When asked about his upbringing, Cooper recalls growing up in a home surrounded by sex, drugs, violence, and addiction, which eventually left his family homeless. He dealt with depression and anger issues in his teenage years as a result of his tumultuous upbringing and the fact that he was bullied in school. He began to write lyrics and eventually found an outlet to his peers. This is when Steven discovered that his music and drive could transcend barriers such as race and classism. From there, he decided to focus on his art and promised himself that he wasn’t going to be a part of the same vicious cycle of his family and friends. 

An artist who is down to earth, kind, caring and extremely humble, much of Steven’s music addresses the fact that he does not quite fit into the hip-hop scene or any other mold. He can’t be anything other than one hundred percent authentic. An emcee that looks more like he may be a pop star in his fitted jackets, cardigans and ties, Steven also doesn’t resemble the recent wave of indie, hipster hip-hop artists. His song “Born To Do” talks about this struggle and the fact that he is not willing to give up on his dreams. His lyrics say “Every new day, every new night. This is my stage, this is my fight. This is what I was born to do.“ Steven Cooper is true to himself, and this is part of what makes him stand out from the crowd.
