Theme of the song is comparing the crack cocaine epidemic in America to the addiction of hip-hop in America. Also, he talks about conspiracy theories that have to do with politics.
Kanye explained his thought process in the creation of this track:
"I started [thinking], if I was to make a song about [crack], I wanted to start where my parents told me it started. ‘How we stop the Black Panthers?/ Ronald Reagan cooked up the answer.’ You say, ‘Ronald wasn’t even the president at the time,’ but he was the governor of [California] when the CIA conspired to bring down the Black Panther Party. It goes back to artists being on the chitterling circuit and labels giving them drugs to lull them over and not be focused on their business. Crack was placed in the black community, used to separate the groups who were to protect us from police brutality and racism at the time."
The song features Game, but only on the hook (his verse didn’t fit the concept the song, though Game has released a version with the verse). Keyshia Cole, Charlie Wilson, and Tony Williams provides backing vocals.
