Why The Pillar Project’s New Song, Reclamation Is The Revolutionary Blockchain Anthem We Need!

Rap music has been an instrumental tool in many revolutions of the world, whether you look at the recent viral and thought provoking track by Childish Gambino that spoke about gun violence against African Americans or the fact that Kendrick Lamar got massive recognition in the form of a Pulitzer prize for his wonderful take on social issues such as police brutality and the inequalities of the American financial system, this genre is nothing but ballsy and revolutionary.

Now, a different revolution altogether might be taking place and it has to do with cryptocurrency and the fight to reclaim our identities online. Introducing a community and a decentralized digital wallet to allow individuals to regain their sense of control and agency, The Pillar Project has teamed up with 20|30, which is a blockchain powered community to release a rap song titled, Reclamation, which might just become the official protest anthem of the cryptoverse against traditional and exploitative forms of money transactions and systems.

Formed in July 2017, The Pillar Project, it is run by a global group of passionate volunteers and the project really took off when it raised a monumental $ 21 Million worth in ETH in July 2017. As they state on their official website, “The goal of the Pillar Project is to return control over personal data back to its rightful owner – you.”

The track which has been performed by Inverse K is available on YouTube where The Pillar Project explains that the song,

‘Reclamation’ is a poem about data – our data. Pillar and inverse K have joined forces towards a common goal: give you back control of your personal data. It’s time for a change. We’ll have no more companies selling our information. We’re taking our data back. Join the Pillar Project movement. The time is now.

The song is also a perfect way to explain exactly how blockchain based technology can help the common man.

Some of the lyrics go;

They’re literally selling you — don’t let ‘em get the best of you! ‘Cause well beyond the monetary nonsense they’re manipulating mindsets, hindering our progress

And boy do we love that chorus!

Our data’s trapped so we’re takin’ it back and Blockchain’ll make this game a pain’a the past ‘cause only those we choose will be able to access with passes that automatically protect our assets

The video on YouTube already has several raving reviews;

We look forward to seeing how this movement gains momentum and advances, so stay tuned in to this space for more!
