Stumbling upon Sandie Black‘s new song “Gotta Get Free” I must say it definitely gives you a feeling of a lurking revolution. When I first heard the track I automatically thought of the Occupy Movement which has currently intensified especially in places like Washington D.C. where protestors are becoming much more defiant. Sandie Black is characterized as a mysterious band from Toronto who most know nothing about. But besides that, this track proves that whoever they are, they sure are attracting real full- blown music heads.

Released as a single on their Junior album And In This Corner, “I Think I Can Beat Mike Tyson” quickly became a fan favorite as the song included themes that complimented sports (boxing) and Hip-Hop.
The original music video, released in 1989, showcased the extremely comedic side of both DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince as they incorporated great cinematic quality and acting, which also propelled the song visually.

DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince, although separated by craft, remained in sync because of the respect they had for each others talent. “I Wanna Rock” is an example of how important it was for each of them to pay homage to each other while performing. Hopefully in today’s Hip-Hop culture a duo like this is somewhere on the rise.
