Saul Williams at John Dee

Yesterday I experienced Saul Williams in concert for the second time this year. I really didn't want it to end. I love that he dares to be political, that he dares to say things that so easily sounds like cliches, yet he seems to be so serious about it. I love a rapper with sympathetic perspectives on the world, on fairness, on gender on race. And of course, the actual music is the coolest thing about him. "Smile so I can see you".
