HOUSTON, TX — Houston hip-hop legend Willie D, along with his Geto Boys partner Scarface and rappers Propain and D. Boi, has released 'Hoodies: The Trayvon Martin Justice Song.’

But don’t expect it to be a factual account of what happened. It’s art, okay?

'I just felt obligated to do something about it, to take it a step further,' Willie D said. 'I never had any intention on making a song or making a video, but when I saw (the faces of my family at a Houston rally), you know, it just weighed so heavy on my heart, I just wanted to do something more.'

It’s a controversial video about a controversial subject, the shooting to death of an unarmed Florida teenager by neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman, charged April 12 with second-degree murder for the Feb. 26 shooting.

Even NewsFix viewers are split on who’s right and who’s wrong with 46% telling our highly unscientific telephone poll that the shooting was self-defense, and 35% saying it was a cold-blooded killing.

I’m really surprised they were able to pull this off. It’s tough trying to find things to rhyme with Skittles and Arizona Iced Tea.

That would be Scarface. If you’ve seen Idiocracy, he plays Upgradde.

Trayvon wore his hoodie all around
But he’s gone to see Jesus.
Now we all know his name,
And they say he was the finest boy in town.

Trayvon, he’s still makin’ money
He means a lot to some today.
Con-men Jackson & Sharpton counting
On the furor for their latest payday.

Black man dies, becomes another pawn
On a slow news day, when the New York Times said ‘Newt is dead’
So a race war’s begun:
Barack Obama lost a “son” today.

[Chorus]
And he shall be Trayvon
And he shall be a good man
And he shall be Trayvon
In tradition with the “family plan.”

And now, “We Are Trayvon”
And we shall be good then-
We . Are . All . Trayvon

[Meet the New Boss]

My name is Trayvon, I stand 6 feet two,
I got shiny gold teeth and a brand new tattoo,
if you gon call the po-lice, li’l hispanic man,
I’m gonna break yo skull until you breathe yo last
“You got a problem wid me?” “No?”
Well you got one now, cuz
I got 99 problems but a snitch ain’t one

[Meet the New Boss]

99 problems
