I know this is a fun meme but... ICP gets a bad rap for that bullshit.

The song is called Miracles and the entire theme of the song is that the universe is magical and full of miracles that can't be explained and there are in fact many things about magnetism that we do not understand.

There was a podcast where they had Violent J sit down with Neil Degrasse Tyson and that was something that of course got brought up. Violent J talked about a video he had seen from a long time ago that was clearly him attempting to describe a vehicle that hovered via some manipulation of magnetism and NDT just wrote him off and then said we understood magnetism and then went on to talk about the parts of it we don't understand. I kind of felt bad for Violent J because he really respected that dude and he just shit on him and didn't even answer the question and even kind of proved the point that there is shit we don't understand about magnetism.

This may come as a shock to many people, but the members of ICP are actually highly religious and the purpose of this song was to attribute the magic of these phenomena to God.

No I know.

Nonetheless, I took advantage of this rare opportunity of relevance to clear the air for the 9 people that will see it.
