Lupe Fiasco - Animal Pharm (Lyrical Breakdown)

I’m not equating the holocaust to today’s corporate world. Animal Pharm (like George Orwell’s Animal Farm), comments on how an authoritarian power controls its masses with language and manipulation. We are still animalistic in the way we treat each other, as we always have been. Just because we put on suits and have thumbs, don’t mean that we not dumb.

Orwell’s Animal Farm is specifically about the Russian Revolution and the rise of Stalin’s communism, but was still a warning to England/the West of the power of capitalist media.

So who controls your farm? And how do they do it? What animal are you?
