I must admit that, with the exception of Stan and Lose Yourself, I’ve never been a huge fan of Eminem’s work. But this slow-burn anti-Bush track, released just in time for the US elections, is one of the most potent pieces of agit-prop hip hop that I’ve heard/seen in a while. (I say seen because you really have to see the video that was made for it.) Daily Kos has posted a link to a stream of the video (but it seems to be faltering under the weight of demand)… So, here’s a fansite with streamed videos in a variety of formats and an mp3 of the song.
(STOP PRESS: Apparently, there's a Bit Torrent of the video at this site.)
