poverty. Just because he's not all out in public with it, doesn't mean he's not doing anything. Bono rides strong for poverty across the world. I'm not sure it's fair to call him out.

For that matter, where is Lauryn Hill?

The lyrics are hot, but there's something weird about his delivery on this song

Excuse Me, I'm wacktose Intolerant

i didn't really like his delivery but the lyrics make up for it

and the psuedo-hardcore singing still doesn't work for Mos IMO
this is still a tight track tho

Thanks for the link.

His delivery on the chorus where he says "KATRINA KLAP!" sounds really odd to me, but the rest of the track is awesome. There's a powerful message in this song for sure. I like it.

I have also heard Nolia Clap. I recognized the beat as soon as I heard it. It was a really big hit. Weird. Ah well.

Where did this song come from? I tried googling information but found nothing.

I love that chorus reworking. And the clip of Kanye's Bush line at the start... priceless. I was hoping to hear it as the chorus throughout the whole song though! But I'm sure that would be too hard to do.

You've never heard that he's supposed to be releasing an album in October (I guess that's next month, wow)? Well, it was October last I heard, but it might be delayed I guess. It's currently titled "The Undeniable Free Flaco"

Check that link, near the bottom, 3rd paragraph from the bottom that starts "Though Mos...".

he seriously sounds like he just woke up.


add that to the "sir bono" comment (bono helps more people than mos has ever THOUGHT of doing) and you have 100% pure grade steaming bullshit.

Can someone post the lyrics ?

Thanks anyway.

so creative

Thanks for the link, no doubt! I'm surprised a lot of peeps on here had never heard 'Nolia Clap before...Juve and his UTP click...

Nice track

It's a tribute to the people of new orleans...That's the classic n.o. sound, while many of you never heard of "nolia clap" it was a huge hit in New Orleans, and as a native of new orleans, i appreciate Mos making the song

Is the song hosted anywhere else. I can't open the link or "right click/save target as"

I cant listen to it, the link keeps screwin' up...does anyone have another link, pleaaaaaaaase?????? from what i'm reading, it sounds like he maybe did his voice like that on purpose trying to mimic a new orleans accent (like the bad memphis accent in hustle & flow), but then again i havent heard it yet

i don't like the beat at all though.

i like "george bush doesn't care about black people" on fwmj's rappers i know month better. but that's just me.

"Dollar Day for New Orleans - Katrina Klap"
Mos Def

(Speaks)

This is for the streets, the streets everywhere,
The streets affected by the storm called, America,
I'm doin' this for ya'll, as for me, for the Creator,

(Chorus)

God save these streets,
One dollar per every human being,
Feel that Katrina Clap,
See that Katrina Clap,

(Verse I)

Listen homie, It's dollar day in New Orleans,
It's where there water everywhere and people dead in the street (eet eets),
And Mr. President he 'bout that cash,
He got a policy for handlin' the bruthas and trash,
And if you poor you black,
I laugh a laugh, they won't give when you ask,
You betta off on crack, dead or in jail, or with a gun in Iraq (a aq),
And it's as simple as that,
No opinion my man it's mathematical fact,
Listen, a million poor since 2004,
And they got illions and killions to waste on the War,
And make you question what the taxes is for,
Or the cost to reinforce the broke levee wall,
Tell the boss he shouldn't be the boss anymore (or or),
Ya'll bae-li-means (???),

(Chorus)

God save these streets,
One dollar per every human being,
Feel that Katrina Clap,
See that Katrina Clap,
God save these streets,
Quit bein' cheap brutha freedom ain't free,
Feel that Katrina Clap,
See that Katrina Clap,

Lord have mercy,
Lord God God save our souls,
A-God save our souls, A-God,
A-God save our souls,
Lord God God save our souls,
A-God save our soul soul soul,
Soul Survivor,

(Verse II)

It's dollar day in New Orleans,
It's where water everywhere and baby's dead in the stree (ee eets),
It's enough to make you holler out,
Like where the fuck is Sir Bono and his famous friends now,
Don't get it twisted man I dig U2,
But if you aint about the ghetto, Then Fuck You Too,
Who care bout Rock N' Roll when babies can't eat food,
Listen homie that shit ain't cool,

It's like dollar day for New Orleans,
It's where the water everywhere and homies dead in the stree (ee eets),
And Mr. President's a natural ass,
He out treatin' bruthas worse than they treat the trash,

(Chorus)

God save these streets,
One dollar per every human being,
Feel that Katrina Clap!
See that Katrina Clap!
God save these streets,
Quit bein' cheap brutha freedom ain't free!!!
Feel that Katrina Clap!!!
See that Katrina Clap,

Soul Survivor,
Lord God God save our souls,
A-God save our souls, A-God,
A-God save our souls,
Lord God God save our souls,
A-God save our soul A-God A-God save us,

(Verse III)

Lord did not inten (yen-end) for the wicked to rule the world,
Say God could not inten (yen-end) for the wicked the rule the wor (o oorld),
God did not inten (yen-end) for the wicked to rule the world,
And even when they knew it's a matter of truth, before they wicked ruling is through,

(Chorus)

God save these streets,
A-dollar day for New Orleans,
God save these streets,
Quit bein' cheap homie freedom ain't free,

God save these streets,
One dollar per every human being,
Feel that Katrina Clap!
See that Katrina Clap!
God save these streets,
Quit bein' cheap brutha freedom ain't free!!!
Feel that Katrina Clap!!! (Ha)
Ghetto Katrina Clap!!! (Ha)

Soul Survivor,
Lord God God save our souls,
A-God save God save our souls,

Feel that Katrina Clap!
Let's make them dollars stack!
And rebuild these streets,
God save these streets,
God save these streets,
God save the soul,
Feel that Katrina Clap!
See that Katrina Clap!

Soul Survivor,

Don't talk about it, Be about it, Peace.
