“We have one of the biggest responsibilities to teach the children because in our day and time we don’t have a Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr, or Bob Marley. The rap community is now focused on as the teacher, so we have to say something positive. Kids comes in all colors. They can be white kids, black kids or Indian kids — they’re still kids and we have to look out for all of them.” – CL Smooth (March 1995)
