Intelligent Hoodlum (Tragedy Khadafi) was a (Five Percenter) Black Muslim rapper from the Queens Bridge projects. His debut self titled album was produced entirely by Queens natives Marly Marl & Large Professor. His pro black message was dominant throughout his first two releases on A&M/Polygram Records (then they change lol but that's corporate pressure).
The song utilizes the James Brown "Say it loud, I'm Black and I'm Proud" sample. In the mid- nineties Intelligent Hoodlum later changed his name to Tragedy Khadafi when he appeared on Capone & Noreaga's debut "War Report."
Rap will never be like this again...
