EMC Music Machine Where Music Lives
“Seen a Lot” closes T3 Project with a global, Afrobeat-influenced sound featuring light vocals over hip-hop foundation, creating sonic representation of the worldliness and weariness described in the lyrics. The Cause2k reflects on traveling, witnessing widespread suffering and injustice, and questioning when anything will actually change for the better. The track covers immense ground—from demonic influences in music to placenta trafficking, from the American Dream’s failure to spiritual searching during hardship. The Afrobeat elements connect African diaspora experiences, suggesting that suffering and exploitation cross borders, that the issues plaguing Black Americans reflect global patterns of oppression and exploitation. It’s simultaneously the album’s most world-weary and most spiritually hopeful track, ending with divine reassurance that despite everything witnessed, “I got you though.”
The message catalogs global suffering and systematic evil while questioning why conditions persist despite awareness, resistance, and prayer. The track addresses how entertainment and distraction keep people compliant, how basic goods get turned into weapons of exploitation (selling placentas and organs), how even death and war become normalized entertainment. There’s deep frustration with the American Dream’s failure, with working hard only to stay poor, with bills exceeding pay regardless of effort or education. The spiritual questioning is profound—asking if God exists and loves us when evidence suggests abandonment or indifference. The closing acknowledgment of divine presence despite suffering represents hard-won faith rather than naive belief, recognition that spiritual support doesn’t prevent hardship but provides meaning and strength to endure it. The message ultimately advocates persistence—even when everything suggests giving up, even when questioning makes sense, continuing forward because surrender means wasting the life you’ve been given.
The Sound
The production incorporates Afrobeat rhythms and instrumentation, creating global sonic palette that connects the track’s message about widespread suffering and shared struggle across the diaspora. Light, melodic vocals float over hip-hop beats, creating dreamlike quality appropriate for reflections on travel, memory, and spiritual searching. The percussion is polyrhythmic and driving, maintaining forward momentum that mirrors the determination to keep going despite exhaustion and doubt. The mix balances traditional hip-hop elements with world music influences, creating fusion that feels both familiar and expansive. The overall sound has meditative, almost trance-like quality—music for long journeys, for contemplation, for making sense of experiences that resist easy interpretation. This is music that travels with you, that processes what you’ve witnessed, that helps make meaning from chaos.
According to the World Bank, global economic inequality has reached unprecedented levels, with the richest 1% owning more wealth than the entire bottom 90% combined. This inequality transcends borders, with exploitation networks—from labor to organs to resources—operating globally and disproportionately extracting from poor and non-white populations. The illicit organ trade, mentioned in the track, generates billions annually, with poor people in developing nations often coerced or tricked into selling organs to wealthy recipients in developed countries. Mental health research shows that widespread awareness of global suffering through constant media exposure creates compassion fatigue and learned helplessness—people becoming numb to atrocity because the scale of suffering exceeds individual capacity to process or address it. This psychological toll contributes to the existential despair and spiritual questioning articulated in the track.
“Seen a Lot” provides powerful conclusion to T3 Project, acknowledging the crushing weight of witnessing global suffering while refusing to surrender to nihilism or despair. The track’s closing divine reassurance—”I got you though”—offers the only answer that makes sense when evidence suggests abandonment: faith not as certainty but as choice, spirituality as lifeline rather than explanation. By ending the album here, The Cause2k and DJ Nabs suggest that after cataloging every systematic failure, personal struggle, and spiritual doubt, the fundamental question becomes whether you’ll keep going or give up. The choice to persist despite everything becomes its own form of resistance, its own kind of faith. For listeners carrying similar burdens—witnessing too much suffering, questioning too deeply, struggling too hard for too long—this track offers validation that exhaustion and doubt coexist with purpose and divine presence. Sometimes the most profound spiritual message is simply “I got you though”—acknowledgment that presence matters more than explanations, that being held matters more than understanding why holding is necessary.
