Although we’re daily indoctrinated with media rhetoric scrambling to clean up the Police Department’s dirty laundry, still waters run deep and it’s been like that from the beginning.

Amerikkka documents the black experience under the thumb of American colonialism, where policy enforcement are branded as public servants whose tasks are “to protect & serve”.

The question is; protect and serve whom, what, and why?

It is today’s common knowledge that certain communities are given favorable protection over others, particularly pale-skin Europeans and those assimilated into their worlds. Wealthy citizens and areas are also prioritized, yet there happens to be a much more sinister side to law enforcement deeply rooted in oppression, thievery, indentured servitude, chattel slavery (aka “Slave Patrol”), and white supremacy.

What does it feel like to be “black in Amerikkka”? G Perico let’s you know; “Clearly it’s the law breaking the law”, he says. The South Central, L.A. rapper has established himself as one of the most promising voices in West Coast Hip Hop, bravely addressing this place we call the United States.

As Tupac’s classic words insinuate, life “Ain’t Nothin’ But a Gangsta Party”. Outside of one’s typical idea of a “gangsta”, it’s important to zero in on those rarely highlighted corporate gangsters and their gangsta cronies partying at the expense of the common folk. Consider that what may seem an entity designed to “protect & serve” (alongside other aspects of the “Justice” system) are mostly operated via persecution of the poor and from profiteering off of prisoners exploited in the Prison Industrial Complex- some of which are not truly guilty of any crime.

Such exploitation amongst officials in powerful positions and their corrupt friends ruin any “just” intention, begging the question of who the actual “gangsta” is and where the true threat lies. Who is really bullying whom and what are the benefits?

As one of three members in the rap group G-Worthy, the project features the Amerikkka single produced by League Of Starz producer Dupri. G- Perico’s reflection on existing within the confines of U.S. oppression offers insight on the feeling of life under colonial Martial Law and its rippling effects on Al Moroccans bka “Americans”.

Songs like these beg us to ask questions about how Al Morocco became Amerikkka and why it’s nearly impossible to trust a Cop no matter how much one might wish to let their guard down.

Check out Amerikkka and stay tuned for a major announcement in the near future.
