I was listening to Frankie, Neffie + Soullow on v103.com [I support the arts] when Ryan Cameron reported that Dexter King, chairman, president and chief executive of The King Estate has struck a deal with EMI earlier this week to bring Dr. Martin Luther King’s words to a wider audience by encouraging their use in songs.

For all the people who “don’t get it” that basically means your bargain basement ass cousins who aspire to be rap artists can pay to use Dr. King’s voice on their demo. Do you understand the fuckery this can breed? I’m not trying to hear Yung Poverty and the 1st & 15th Boyz rap about making that pussy fart over the I Have A Dream speech.

Tell me you don’t know anybody that trifling and hungry to get on. I can name about ten momofukas right damn now.

Dexter King, chairman, president and chief executive of The King Estate, said EMI was best positioned to “increase The King Estate’s ability to preserve, perpetuate and protect the great legacy of Martin Luther King Jr.”

In a statement, Martin Luther King III said he and his sister didn’t have any information about the deal.

Bernice and Martin Luther King III have been fighting their brother, Dexter, in court in recent months. The siblings are struggling to settle three lawsuits involving their parents’ estates, including one attempting to force Dexter King to open the books of their father’s estate. Another would determine who should control Coretta Scott King’s personal items — some of which were at the center of a $1.4 million book deal about their mother’s life that fell apart last year amid the legal wrangling.
