Chuck D, KRS-One, Melle Mel, & Scorpio - ‘Project 2025’


The latest single “Project 2025” is more than just a song—it's a warning. Hip-hop legends Chuck D, KRS-One, Mele Mel, and Scorpio have come together to sound the alarm about a political manifesto with the same name. Produced by Scorpio, this track is hopefully in time to delivery the motivation and message for the 2024 U.S. Presidential election, and it’s here to remind us what Hip-Hop does best: speak truth to power. This song brings awareness to the alarming intentions of The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025, a plan that could reshape America’s future by pulling the country in a radically extreme conservative direction​. The stakes is high, and you must learn to not stay quiet.
Let’s keep it real—Hip-Hop has always been about more than just beats and rhymes. From its birth in the Bronx to becoming the global force it is today. The genre has been the voice of the voiceless and that’s exactly the role Hip-Hop played in its early days: telling stories that mainstream media wouldn’t touch. “Project 2025” feels like a return to that essence. As KRS-One points out, “Emcees have always been the voice of the streets, and the streets ain’t with Project 2025.” And who could argue with opposing policies that threaten to roll back hard-earned rights​?
