Since the quality and veracity of some of the ISIS videos have been questioned..... To Smokey Robinson: Homeboy, I'm sorry.


When I got my camcorder the Imam told me I should wait
He said “Son you gotta plan well for the brand new caliphate

And then he said “Just because you've got the camera goin'
Don't be thinking you're the next Chris Nolan
My Imam told me: you've got to storyboard

“I got some things that I want you to know, I'm singin',
Infidels don't get the “holy” thing,
Before you upload an execution
You have to show ‘em why they need our solution
My Imam told me: “You've got to storyboard.”

“Try to set up a good story son,
Incorporate foreshadowing and homages by the ton,
Before you film some guy apologizin'
For US invasion make a film that's satisfyin'
My Imam told me, “You got to storyboard.”

Perhaps you were unaware Komradina Kelya, that Smokey Robinson converted to Islam for a period of three days and took the name Ibn Dukhaan (Son of Smoke). While under the spell of Islam, he penned this tribute to the mass beheading of 700 male members of the Jewish Qurayzah tribe on the orders of Muhammad (using that very same song)



When I became of age, the Prophet called me to his side
He said, "Hajj, time is drawing near now, to deal with that Jewish tribe."

And then he said
Just because it ain't said in Quran, now (Quran)
Doesn't mean we can't slay every man, now (Man, now)
Because they parleyed with the Meccan clans, now (Clans, now)
We're gonna go with the genocidal plan, now (Akbar)
Mohammed told me
We're gonna chop 'em down (Chop, chop 'em down)
Wallah, we're gonna chop 'em down (Chop, chop 'em down)

There's some things that I want to tell you, now
Just are sure as Hadeeth are true, now
They broke their word cause these Bedouins are Jews, now
We turn our backs and they'll stab us anew, now
Mohammed told me
We better chop 'em down (Chop, chop em down)
Wallah, we better chop 'em down (Chop, chop 'em down)

You gotta find yourself some courage, son
Don't you faint on the very first one
Qurayzah girls will be a dime a dozen
We'll try to find one that's gonna give you good loving'
Before you stop your sword and say "Can't do, now!"
Just remember he's an oath-breaking Jew, now
Mohammed told me
You better chop 'em down

Try to find yourself some courage, son
Don't you blanche on the very first one
Qurayzah slaves will be a dime a dozen
We'll find you a girl that's gonna give you good lovin'

Before you take a swing and say "Akbar", now
Make sure you're at the pit in the bazaar, now
Make sure his faith is kuffar, now
I'd hate to banish you to those Jews in Khaybar, now
Mohammed told me
You better chop 'em down (Chop, chop 'em down)

Uh-huh, don't let that first one fret you (chop, chop 'em down)
Oh no, you don't want the blood to bewitch you
Uh huh, before their necks YOU will smite
Wallah, be sure your stroke is right
Before we let you take a head, my son
Don't feel dread, my son
They must be bled, my son
You'll know they're dead, my son .....

Wow! This was not only a great post but very informative as well. I never knew that about Smokey Robinson. Thanks Callmelennie! Dayum!

Good one, Kelly! Really good.

A belated thanks, Comerade Pamalinsky!
