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:

    Those blessed structures, plot and rhyme—
    why are they no help to me now
    I want to make
    something imagined, not recalled?
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    Morality for the novelist is expressed not so much in the choice of subject matter as in the plot of the narrative, which is perhaps why in our morally bewildered time novelists have often been timid about plot.
    Jane Rule (b. 1931)

    Cubism had been an analysis of the object and an attempt to put it before us in its totality; both as analysis and as synthesis, it was a criticism of appearance. Surrealism transmuted the object, and suddenly a canvas became an apparition: a new figuration, a real transfiguration.
    Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
