Trais song lyrics

song is called Does it really matter
its by K'naan
genre is rap
The song was released in 2009. The songs message is basically just talkin about where your from and saying it doenst really matter where you are from or like what you look like and where you go. I think the artist tried saying that he is from somewhere different and when he goes places and who he hangs with it doesnt really matter. People shouldnt be judge by where there from and who they hang with and where they hang. This verse in the song basically explains the song and my point of view on the song-

If the beat is hot does it matter where or who its from?
If the flow is hot does it really matter where I'm from?
If the song is hot does it matter 'cause the DJ dumb?
If the girl is hot does it really matter where she's from?
If the beat is hot does it matter where or who its from?
If the flow is hot does it really matter where I'm from?
If the club is hot does it really matter how we bump?
If the girl is hot does it really matter where she's
from?
I think the song basically takes place in our time but talks about the rapper as he grows.
I think the issue affect mainly African Americans but thats just my opinion because he talks about African American rappers.

The song to me seems like it takes place in like a rougher area of time. Because he talks about running the streets im mean people just dont run the streets in like all white rich neighborhoods if that makes since.
