The Devil Made Me Do It, an album produced and performed by Paris, a rapper native to the Bay Area known for his politically driven music about systemic racism against Black Americans, is powerful and features songs which altogether are moving anthems with strong messages on their own. Oscar Jackson Jr, better known as Paris, debuted into the hip-hop industry with his 1990 album The Devil Made Me Do It after graduating from UC Davis for Economics. He has been a vocal advocate for the Black Panthers and his pro-Black beliefs are evident throughout this album. Songs like “Escape from Babylon”, “Scarface Groove” and “The Devil Made Me Do It” are apparent examples of Paris using facts that are relevant to this day to direct attention to systemic racism against Black people in America.
