...does not seem to be referring to David's political and sexual impotence. It is worth exploring the implications of such a lofty comparison. For example, can you picture Clinton's reciting the psalm in your mind's eye? Is the image one of a powerful leader, or a lame duck...

Does Clinton truly aspire to be a part of history? If so, David's story in the history book of the holy has a lesson for the Lame Duck in Chief: Once the sinner steps aside and is succeeded by an unsoiled brainiac, everything is all right.

...synergy of past ventures doesn't quite reappear, and the song, as do many aspects of the album, sounds halting and deliberate. Q-Tip waxes an eloquent soliloquy in "The Love" about love in all forms, but for every one of these slick arrangements, there is a lame and unmemorable tune waiting to follow it. "4 Moms" is an enjoyable instrumental respite, but the album hits bottom in "Give Me" when Ali Shaheed inexplicably spins in samples from Boyz...
