From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
21st Century is the fourth track on the second disc of the Red Hot Chili Peppers' double album Stadium Arcadium.
Seeing the song's lyrics, it is most likely about globalization, much like the band's 1999 song "Californication". The song was originally debuted at the Vegas Rocks 100 concert on July 2, 2005. It was also featured along with the song Readymade, which also appears on Stadium Arcadium.
The song features a prominent bass riff with a flange/Wah effect and a simple backing guitar riff.
