Talk:The Message (song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I swapped out the lyrics page for one without any errors. I noticed in the older lyrics webpage the following two lines were incorrect: "Said she'd dance the tango skip the light fandango, a Zircon princess seemed to lost her senses."
In the artists that have used lyrics from this song sentence, all artists except Akon have the song in which the lyrics are used listed after their names. Unless someone can identify which song Akon uses a part of this song, his name should be deleted. Diablomarcus 17:06, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

should talk about the influence of this song on the evolution of hip hop music. It was the first non-materialistic hip hop song, dealing with social problems.
