A Tribute to Malcolm X, New Music from MeKoBane

Join us Tonight | May 18, 2011 @ 11:59pm | World Premier of "The Balance".

Watch exclusively on AllHipHop and MCMIreport

Today’s young black males are very different from those of generations past -- heroes such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X have been replaced by the glitz and glamour of rappers and basketball stars. But in the case of Bronx-bred Hip Hop artist MeKoBane, he can't help but be inspired by the story of Malcolm X, having been born right next door to The Audubon Ballroom at Columbia Presbyterian Hospital. A graduate of University of Albany, MeKoBane appreciates Malcolm X's transition from a Hustler to an Intellectual, a Leader, a Spokesman, and a devout Muslim. And with Malcolm X's birthday arriving on May 19th, MeKoBane felt a duty to pay homage to Malcolm X with  "The Transition," highlighting the beliefs that he represents -- Discipline, Pride, and Love of Self.

"The Transition" represents the struggle of the Young Black Male to find Success as a Gentleman without having to be a "Hustler" or "Thug." In the lead single "The Balance," MeKoBane touches on the Young Black Male's inner battle with "being yourself", and the constant fight between Hustler and Gentleman. In the video, MeKoBane pays homage to Malcolm X on the steps of The Malcolm X & Betty Shabazz Youth Center (originally the Audubon Ballroom, where Malcolm X was slain). The video also contains a life size statue of Malcolm. This type of visual from the Hip Hop community hasn't been seen since the days of Public Enemy, with MeKoBane being the FIRST Hip Hop Artist to stand in the very place where Malcolm X was slain.
