Nope. The police actually are a much more advanced and systemic version of the plantation overseer. Do you actually believe that they are to uphold the law. No their job is to protect property and "keep order". We are assets, sources of labor and income. That is our real value. This song was true then. It's still true now. And pick up a book. This info isn't hard to find. He over simplified it for the song. Police are the overseers of the municipality they "project and serve". Smdh

I am a 51 year old white man, my crew growing up was into Punk Rock, Metal, and Old-Skool Hip-Hop! KRS-ONE was a hero to us!! We protested Racism and Police Violence, and we really thought we would change something. Sadly, it's worse today, and the world is moving backwards. I don't see the youth today out there screaming and yelling at the beast!! I am so happy to see you guys getting it, Thanks

White dude, American History teacher here. I reference this song when I’m lecturing to my classes about plantation life and slavery. The Officer -> Overseer lyric is deep. I grew up and learned about black culture on this music. Saw BDP, PE, Kane, Rakim and all of these rap gods in concert when I was in HS and College. So glad I did. Hip Hop concerts in the 80’ and 90’s were unreal. Every artist was dropping entire albums with the best songs they could release. KRS-One is a FABULOUS MC.

KRS One is connecting the historical facts of the plantation “Overseer’s “role and the police along with the police origin as slave patrol. Police corruption and brutality. Also, KRS One is Jamaican and has many flow switches! He’s the Father of Edutainment Music! Always has a message. Keep up the great content. Keep reviewing music with conscious content.
