Dope Poets Society - Fuck Mike Harris - The Dope Poets society are a Toronto based hip-hop group whose focus is aimed more to political & humanitarian issues than the usual jigginess found in most rap music. Rather than singing about rolling down Jarvis in their benzos while the women chase them up the street, the dope poets have decided to do something uncommon in hiphop - tell the truth. Rather than brag about money and wealth, this track shows the honesty and passion that the dope poets have put in their music. Fuck Mike Harris is not a trick title, it's a song all about the evils of Ontario's Fuhrer, Mike Harris. This song kicks all ass. If things were fair, MuchMusic would be dedicated to playing tracks like this 24hrs a day. This song opens up with some samples of single mothers and welfare recipients. Throughout the song the poets rhyme very specifically about the lies perpetrated by the Canadian KKKonservatives. It's nice because it's not just whining about the Harris regime. These guys drop precise examples about what Harris has done during the past 5 years. All of this on top of a phat beat. Throughout the whole song they slide all kinds of rvvvolutionary samples into the mix. All in all, this is a bomm song. This is the way political rap should sound. Intelligent with a phatt beat.
