“It is now more important than ever to prioritise living by example as we emulate the divine!” Powerful consciousness-raising gab set to Brian Jackson, fluting again against the words of legend Gil Scott-Heron on this sharp, funk-laid 2025 version of ‘The Revolution Will Not Be Televised’. Reimagined by the former Heron wingman, Jackson takes on the Pieces Of A Man original, which wore a sharp instrumental dress, and which came at a pivotal moment of Civil Rights contradiction, where many had been fought for and won, and yet where racism lingered on in converted form. Meanwhile the Vietnam War raged in the background. But this Black Thought-verbalised dramatiser restages the tune in slicker, more casual tones, reflecting the force of Scott’s lyrics’ impact in the present.
