Si Wi Dem Nuh Know We - Plot and Lyrical Analysis

Plot and Lyrical Analysis

Si We Dem Nuh Know We is performed entirely in Jamaican Patois and features a heavy base line. Like Informer, all three artists describe a "son" falsely charged with murder. Unlike Informer, Si We Dem Nuh Know We is not a biographical song. Rather, the inspiration for the song came from murder charges levied against Snow's Uncle Patty. As Snow explained, ""It's about an innocent man being charged; anybody who gets falsely accused of a crime."

Famous quotes containing the words plot and, plot and/or analysis:

    Trade and the streets ensnare us,
    Our bodies are weak and worn;
    We plot and corrupt each other,
    And we despoil the unborn.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Ends in themselves, my letters plot no change;
    They carry nothing dutiable; they won’t
    Aspire, astound, establish or estrange.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    ... the big courageous acts of life are those one never hears of and only suspects from having been through like experience. It takes real courage to do battle in the unspectacular task. We always listen for the applause of our co-workers. He is courageous who plods on, unlettered and unknown.... In the last analysis it is this courage, developing between man and his limitations, that brings success.
    Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
