[Verse 1: Kanye West]
How we stop the Black Panthers?
Ronald Reagan cooked up an answer
You hear that? What Gil Scott was hearin’
When our heroes or heroines got hooked on heroin
Crack raised the murder rate in D.C. and Maryland
We invested in that, it’s like we got Merrill lynched
And we been hangin’ from the same tree ever since
Sometimes, I feel the music is the only medicine
So we, cook it, cut it, measure it, bag it
Sell it, the fiends cop it, nowadays, they can’t tell if
That’s that good shit, we ain’t sure, man
Put the CD on your tongue—yeah, that’s pure, man

About Kanye West’s Crack Music from Late Registration (2005)
Theme of the song is comparing the crack cocaine epidemic in America to the addiction of hip-hop in America. Also, he talks about conspiracy theories that have to do with politics.
Kanye
explained his thought process in the creation of this track
:
I started [thinking], if I was to make a song about [crack], I wanted to start where my parents told me it started. ‘How we stop the Black Panthers?/ Ronald Reagan cooked up the answer.’ You say, ‘Ronald wasn’t even the president at the time,’ but he was the governor of [California] when the CIA conspired to bring down the Black Panther Party. It goes back to artists being on the chitterling circuit and labels giving them drugs to lull them over and not be focused on their business. Crack was placed in the black community, used to separate the groups who were to protect us from police brutality and racism at the time.
The song features
Game
, but only on the hook (his verse didn’t fit the concept the song, though Game has
released a version
with the verse).
Keyshia Cole
,
Charlie Wilson
, and
Tony Williams
provides backing vocals.
The track samples “Since You Came in My Life” by the New York Community Choir:
