DaVinci - Trickle Down (Montage Episode 1)

January 27, 2010

DaVinci - Trickle Down (Prod. Blunt)

As DaVinci raps, "Hate is power, love is a weakness / You do wrong the right way, they call you a genius," the rising Bay Area emcee's powerful message resonates loud and clear – what's valued in the streets seems to be exactly what is valued in politics too. This is the trickle down effect that grips the government and the community.
