Rapper Talib Kweli made an appearance in a new segment of “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee” on TBS to take on the surveillance state. After an amusing investigation into privacy rights, Kweli joined Ashley Nicole Black to do a revamp of his song “Get By” to talk about encryption and privacy monitoring. Watch the video below. The track starts at the 5:25 mark.
Kweli raps:
Lock your phone with a passcode
Or what you're downloading gets stolen
Basically be the black Edward Snowden …
The N.Y.P.D. put the troll in patrol
They online collecting everything we post from Twitter to Vine (R.I.P.)
Unencrypted apps let 'em have all your data that's private
Like every dick pic that you text to your side chick
Your spy shit, they're trying to take us fifty years back
Fuck your password, get ready for Revenge of the Black Nerds
