Mother Nature (feat. Razah)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mother Nature (feat. Razah) is one of the rap singles of Papoose. It is a mixtape produced by DJ Kay Slay and is aired by radio station Hot 97. It is a rap tribute to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The verses produces the scene of destroyed families and troops that are sent to make the survivors leave their decimated homes in crowded hot buses. However, Papoose states that the government is wrong in sending the troops because they would rather stay then to leave. In addition, Papoose mentions that president George W. Bush came to visit the wreckage with his dogs. He said that the president did not show any compassion toward the people and accused Mr. Bush that he is "indirectly calling the black survivors as dogs." Thus, the situation sparks the mind of Papoose to rap about such tributes of donating blood, money, and time are needed in the situation at hand so that help is able to reach out to people in their critical conditions. The chorus is sung by Razah who borrowed it from Tupac Shakur's song, Keep Ya Head Up. It also samples "I Want Muscles" performed by Diana Ross in 1982.
