Words of Wisdom: Boots Riley

The Coup is one of my favorite hip-hop groups ever & this is definitely my favorite song of theirs. I’ve never heard a story told through song as well as this one is.

One day Boots came into the coffee shop I was working at. As you can imagine, I acted like a complete creepster. He was super nice & talked about some upcoming projects he was working on & I managed to get a photo with him.

The day I made a cappuccino for Boots Riley will always be one of the greatest days of my life. Haha.

Another good one from Da Drought 3. Not exactly a quote, but a great couple of lines in a song.

I find this insanely inspirational for some reason. I get so wrapped up in this song (and the entire mixtape.. it’s pretty amazing) and really like his delivery of this line. It’s “Seat Down Low” from Da Drought 3 Mixtape:
