    Killer Mike posted his six-part interview with presidential candidate Bernie Sanders today (December 15).

    The total interview spans one hour. Killer Mike starts the interview by explaining his background growing up in Atlanta before asking Sanders a question about a specific governmental system.

    “What is socialism and what does it mean to the Black community?" Killer Mike asks Sanders.

    “What it means to me, what it means to the Black community, what it means to the American community is the understanding that when we talk about rights, you have freedom of speech,” Sanders says. “You can go out on the corner and give a speech. You have the constitutional right to do that. But you know what, to be truly free, you need economic rights as well. So you can go out and give a speech, but you don’t have any food in your stomach, you don’t have a house, roof over your head, you don’t have any education, are you really free?"

    Elsewhere in the interview, the two discuss social security, marijuana and gun control.

    God, I love Killer Mike. I was about to come here and criticize rappers (good) rappers supporting a particular politician/group of interests, but this guy is humbling. He gives rap music a good representation (except for all the marijuana craze, but of course even that can be highly subjective).
