From Skinnyman’s UK hip hop classic, Council Estate of Mind, ‘Ill Be Surprised’ samples Sly and the Family Stone’s ‘I Cannot Make It’.

This song is about Skinnyman wanting to take revenge on the people who have ruined his community. Also talks about how people feel they have to turn to violence to protect themselves.

The spoken word sample at the end is a dialogue taken from the film ‘Made in Britain’, which is sampled throughout the album and is part of the album concept.
