09 - Jodeci - Get On Up (Mr Dalvin's Remix)

I've been interviewing and documenting People Under The Stairs for over 20 years, our first was in 1999 (see end of this episode) in Mid City, Los Angeles at the Cambridge Street house of our guest Chris Portugal aka Thes-One - where I sat with him and his partner Double K as they recorded their sophomore album 'Question In The Form of An Answer'. Today, on this episode, in this conversation, we reflect on our friend Mike Turner aka Double K, the late, great, beloved friend, partner, producer, DJ, rapper, dog lover, husband, son, cousin, brother, best dude. Please spread the word about this podcast as well as buy the vinyl of Farewell, My Friend at puts.band - and stream the project anywhere.

URBAN MIX #86 (Lxtisse) Part 1

A flamboyant electric blues track offering a current political perspective on issues about being clear on vision, values and principles - writing them down. Then on reflection and comparison to the vison, values and principles, finding out that some current governance structures are completely out of whack, to the point that it is reasonable and accurate to describe some governments as: criminal organisations masquerading as democracy. 

Lyrics:

When you write it down...
Write it down...

Asked a simple question—what do we stand for?
Turns out no one's written it down before
Democracy, liberty, rule of law
Sounds quite nice... until you check the score

Words of meaning are set ablaze
They twist the script, while we're in dismay

When you write it down, write it down
All the deceit is revealed in the light
When you write it down, write it down
All the lies start raining down

Million dead in Iraq, all based on lies
Anti-genocide groups are now the bad guys
Peaceful protest gets you fourteen years
While war criminals polish their careers

Can’t name the group or I might get nicked
For terrorism—that’s how truth gets fixed
They made opposing genocide a crime
While funding it with your tax and mine

When you write it down, write it down
All the deceit is revealed in the light
When you write it down, write it down
All the lies start raining down

4AM raids, for writing to your MP
About some kids getting killed across the sea
But sell the bombs and that’s just foreign trade
Democracy dies when we’re all afraid

So here’s your constitution, neat and clean
Now measure what they’ve done against what it means
The truth’s so mad you’d think it was a joke
If kids weren’t bleeding beneath the gun smoke

When you write it down, write it down
When you write it down, write it down....

When you write it down...
Write it down...

Write It Down
