Introducing "CHECHENZ WITH ATTITUDES":
Proud to Be a Chechen, Yall!
President Vladimir Putin may have succeeded in using the so-called "anti-terrorist campaign" in the breakaway Caucasus republic of Chechnya to rally Russian voters behind his dirty election campaign, but Chechen forces continue in their struggle, repeatedly inflicting heavy Russian casualties through guerilla campaigns in the mountains and in those regions that the Russians claim already to have "liberated." Having previously set aside their differences to unite in fighting for the survival of their people, elected Chechen President Aslan Maskhadov and respected field commander Shamil Basayev, together with the Jordan-born warlord known as Khattab, have now prepared a new response to Putins bloody campaign: Chechenz with Attitudes!
Joining together with Grozny-based trance and hip hop DJ Dr. Dzhokar back in February, the three warriors adopted the hip hop aliases "Ice" Basayev, MC Khattab, and "Eazy" Aslan in order to write and record "Straight Outta Grozny." Although Russian radio airplay has predictably been denied, the group convened in Moscow for a ferocious live performance at the eXiles recent 3rd Anniversary Party (just days after Basayev lost his right foot in the campaign), with more shows planned for the near future.
In the meantime, "Straight Outta Grozny" is now available for download in MP3 format. The controversial lyrics are reprinted below--along with an English translation of MC Khattabs Russian verse and some helpful annotations explaining some of the background).
TOO BLACK. TOO STRONG. TOO CHECHEN.
CHECHENZ WITH ATTITUDES "STRAIGHT OUTTA GROZNY"*
When something happens in the North Caucasus, nothing happens...
it's just another President gettin' hisself elected
"Ice" Basayev: Straight outta Grozny
Crazy motherfucker called Basayev
From the gang called Chechenz With Attitudes
When I'm called off with my Kalashnikov
Squeeze the trigger and the bodies are hauled off
You too, Putin, if you fuck with me
Your FSB is gonna hafta come and get me
Over the border, that's how I'm goin' out
Seize a hospital on TV, that's showin' out!
Russians wanna take us in a week
Were cuttin' off their fingers and frying em into shashlik!
Goin' off on a hostage like that...
With a beard that's growin' to the floor
And what's more...
You can check my right foot at the door
Here's a murder rap to keep you mellow
With a crime record like Chikatilo
Hexagen is the tool
To explode your neighborhood preschool
TV News -- showed me with my beard on
Negotiating with Viktor Chernomyrdin
On the news weekly monthly yearly
Till those dumb Russian monkeys see clearly
That I'm down with the capital B-A-B...
Boy you can't fuck with me!
So when I'm in your village you'd better duck
Cause Basayev is crazy as fuck
When I leave, nobody knows me
But when I come back boy, I'm comin' straight outta Grozny
[chorus]
City of Grozny, city of Grozny
Dr. Dzhokar: , , ?
Yo Khattab... tell em where youre from!
MC Khattab: .
Another crazy bastard from the city Grozny
MC --
MC Khattab -- Im serious and ya knows me
...
Extremely... we'll wait for nighttime
-
Thats when we'll slaughter every last whitey
In my hands two grenades and a pistol
s, ,
Plus my semi-automatic and an AK machine gun
, , , ...
I slaughter, explode, suffocate, and I murder...
You bet your ass I'm evil, no reason to be furtive
:
My name is MC Khattab:
Ż, , » ѻ!
"Kh," "A," two "T"s and "AB"!
,
You know Im as nasty as can be
So think twice before you mess with me
My grandfather was old man Khattabych
A world renowned terrorist, everybody paid homage
That don't mean blowin' up an orphanage
He scratched his beard and soon everywhere was carnage
- ٻ
Some people they try to call me a "nigger"
Those paleface fucks are just flat out dick-less
- ٻ
Some people they try to call me a "black-ass"
!
Yeah, Ill fuck them in the ass!
That Basayevs been getting on my nerves
He must be a bit worn out like the Kurds
Recently we had ourselves a minor disagreement
So I grabbed him and bit off his foot, now hes in treatment
-,
I set the timer for exactly one-thirty
Hexagen is my favorite word
Soon Moscow will be nothing but catacombs
-- !
Hey brothers -- I done set the bomb!
[chorus]
Dr. Dzhokar: Aslan is his name and the boy's comin...
"Eazy" Aslan: Straight outta Grozny...
Comes a Muslim who'll blow off your bosom
And make your sister shave my cousin
Dangerous general raisin' hell
I played that pussy Lebed like a bell
See I don't give a fuck, that's the problem!
I see a TV journalist -- yo, I don't dodge him
But I'm smart, I act like the victim
And when the news comes out, I sees I tricked him
To me it's kinda funny, these Russian tactics
Drive their tanks into Grozny get their ass kicked
Just rollin', lookin' for the one they call Aslan
But here's a flash, they never catch on
Im Stylish! Never seen without my tall furry hat...
Except in a mosque
You see, I attack without hesitation
I hear the screams of the last decapitation
With my stinger, I shoot a Russian jet down
And then we hit the town, you know it's time to get down
So what about the ***** who got shot? Fuck her!
You think I care about a Russian *****? I ain't a sucker!
This is the biography of the A
And if you ever fuck with a
Hairy ass Chechen who's got five divisions
You'll see I'm on a mission...
Straight outta Grozny
[chorus]
