Sabac Red – Tell Lie Vision (2011) [USA]
“Tell Lie Vision” by Non Phixion legend Sabac Red is a critique of modern society, the media, and how the system controls our minds. The title itself is a clever play on words — switching “Television” into “Tell-Lie-Vision”, basically meaning a TV that just pumps out lies.
Sabac breaks down how mainstream media, like TV news and cable shows, completely brainwashes people. It feeds us a warped reality, distracts everyone from the real issues, and pushes pure consumer culture.
He also dives into the harsh reality of street life — poverty, drug dealing, crime, financial struggles, and just trying to survive. He points out a crazy irony: people who can barely make ends meet and struggle to buy groceries will still faithfully pay their cable bill just to numb themselves with entertainment.
Ultimately, he blasts the fake standards of pop culture. He talks about how young people and those living in poverty get hooked on chasing million-dollar dreams and the glamorous life they see on reality TV, while the system keeps them completely trapped mentally.
