I originally wrote this track to a beat of the same title that was produced by Blu, but once the project started evolving I decided to opt for an original beat while maintaining the same title. The definition of “slave” refers to an individual that is “entirely dominated by some influence or person” and although slavery has been abolished – at least in the context of America’s racial history – the fact remainsthat a small handful of extremely powerful people control 95% of what we read, see, hear, think, eat, earn, spend …and the list goes on. This song is about breaking away from those chains.
