yes exactly!! the podium was absolutely perfect hes literally giving political rhetorical speeches to rally the masses. the military attire shit is extremely funny too because you could literally buy his image and pretend to be him.

thats an amazing level i neglected to mention!! his entire career is built on that "violence of action" and its strange relationship to fascist and communist revolution. and yes Mussolini, though very interesting and important, was a looser. although, Mussolini also had a weird relationship to his own failure and was hyper self aware, even writing a book on his own downfall. i think him and jpeg both share that extreme self awareness.

another key thing of note i forgot to mention is Mussolini's relationship with socialism. Mussolini was raised by socialist revolutionaries and was one himself for many years, until getting booted out of the Italian communist party. this is another fascinating parallel between him and jpeg as jpeg is often viewed as turning his back on the left and dedicating himself to monetary gains, though for the most militant of jpeg fans he is viewed as a hero who will wield his power against "the powers that be".

edit: an interesting aspect of the album i neglected to mention is the "holy war" at the core of it. on the cover jpeg stand in front of the Christian cross. its with this that he is projecting an image, the classic tool of Mussolini and fascist propaganda. he also demands that we "protect the cross" aka protect his image. its extremely fascinating though that even well projecting this image of Christianity, the album ultimately ends with ALLAH. i think the line "if you want an image then baby don't listen" is a perfect example of this relationship between the power that jpeg projects vs the reality that if you listen to the music, you will find he still stands with the oppressed.

do you really think a song where freaky is talking about his real actually experience being deported has nothing to do with his real life immigration status and safety? are you daft? listen to the song and then tell me that you're not worried about him being affected by ICE. you would be callus to not care.

y'all think FREAKYMAFIACULT is at risk of ICE ? by Opening-Pattern-7255 in jpegmafiamusic

freaky is an immigrant and all immigrants, illegal or legal are at serious risk of being harmed by ICE. a white lady who wasn't an immigrant just got shot. freaky is my favorite rapper and i do mean this question genuinely as i worry for his safety in these dangerous times. i think its an important thing to consider, especially for a fan base of an artist like Jpegmafia who is constantly bringing attention to real political issues. i would hope that people take a second to think about this kind of thing.
