Quote: |
Abdul-Rauf is perhaps best known for the controversy created when he refused to stand for "the Star-Spangled Banner" before games[1], stating that the flag was a "symbol of oppression" and that the United States had a long "history of tyranny". He said that standing to the national anthem would therefore conflict with his Islamic beliefs. On March 12, 1996 the NBA suspended Abdul-Rauf for his refusal to stand, but the suspension lasted only one game. Two days later, the league was able to work out a compromise with him, whereby he would stand during the playing of the national anthem but could close his eyes and look downward. He usually silently recited a Muslim prayer during this time.
| He's viewed as a traitor, which is why no one mentions him.

Anyone who thinks that this region is not versatile doesn't understand much about its music. Rappers such as the Jacka, J Stalin, Beeda Weeda, Turf Talk, Bailey, Big Rich, and several other up-and-comers deserve to be heard, as well as the legends such as E-40, Mac Dre, Too $hort, Messy Marv, and Yukmouth. - sf weekly  ...DIG THaT Cus Cus | |
