This video proves my theory that Saul Williams can make anything sound profound. I mean, here's a guy with a voice so cool and expressive that he can literally read random words from a page of the New York Times, Allen Ginsberg's "Howl", and a Noam Chomsky book, and make it sound like a manifesto. Of course, it probably doesn't hurt that Serj Tankian (from System of a Down) is playing guitar and Zack De La Rocha (from Rage Against The Machine) is playing drums behind him.
This video is 1 part Post Modern, 1 part pretentious, and about 7 parts awesome.
Best part of the video: the guy behind the camera at the very beginning saying "alright, one song and then we're out of here". What a chump.
So cool.
