Originally inspired by the 1992 Los Angeles riots that happened after the police officers who brutally beat Rodney King were acquitted, the protest song is more meaningful than ever...proven by the fact that the 34-year-old song is back at the top of the charts.
Tom Morello called Zack de la Rocha's lyrics 'brilliant'
In a 2020 interview with Rolling Stone, Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello called the line "F—k you, I won’t do what you tell me" a “universal sentiment”.
"Frederick Douglass said that the moment he became free was not the moment that he was physically loosed from his bonds," Morello continued. "It was the moment when master said, ‘Yes.’ And he said, ‘No.’ And that’s the essence of ‘F—k you, I will not do what you tell me.’ And that’s why it’s encouraging to hear it shouted at the Fed goons who are shooting tear gas at American citizens.”
Over three decades later, it's still standing.
