Voices from the dark?
Evoking derision suggestive of the demonic netherworld and dark undertones, newcomer rapper Raj stunned the music industry with his now controversial debut track Blood Bars.It is nothing close to your everyday hip-hop track and, reading between the lines, self-proclaimed pundits have cast aspersions on the controversial issues the lyrics poked, spanning Internet debate on whether Raj was satanic.
“...Light a spliff, say a curse and buy a coffin, I’m back starving. I’m not fronting but the haters back stabbing, I’ll buy a morgue and be the undertaker. Tell Satan she my ex n***a please take her. I got takers, I know killers and we pagans...” so goes the first verse of the song.
The rapper even hit it harder with his harsh lyrical tone as the track slithered:
“...Slaughter all these maniacs. N***a on them skinny ass jeans. Trying f**k with devil’s genes. And uh, I don’t know nobody. Ever since I lost my sister I done. Been seeing dead bodies, yesus, demons and evils, short form devils. And all these bodies are for murdering rebels...”
The track that was recorded at MusicBank makes some Illuminati references.
Dark forces
Without restraint, the rapper talks of the seal of Solomon, which is said to be the symbol of the pentagram, one of the popular Illuminati symbols associated with Jay Z and Kanye West. He brings out what some say is the demonic 666 reference, nine eleven that symbolises the 9/11 attacks and Delilah and the Angel Michael, all apparently twisted up to depict evil as would be revealed in the Holy Book.
The Textus Receptus manuscripts cryptically asserts 666 to be “the number of a man”, a number in some scriptures associated with the beast, an antagonistic creature that appears briefly about two-thirds into the apocalyptic vision. The Beast in this case, is the Devil.
Paradoxically, 19-year-old Raj tragically lost his sister on June 6 this year through a road accident in Australia, spanning more curiosity of the 666 stance in the song and the casual way the rapper brings death into his lyrics. Was the death a sacrifice? Some eerily seem to be asking.
“I’m a hustler. I’m definitely not what they are trying to say I am. Though it sounds evident given the lyrics of the song, I am not that,” Raj told Pulse.
“We have recorded Blood Bars video and everyone who sees says it is really horrific. I have been warned by many people not to release it,” he adds.
