J… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least five (5) groups with the name (Jackson):
[1]
Jackson and His Computer Band is an IDM artist signed to Warp Records consisting of Jackson Fourgeaud, a 26-year-old Parisian composer. His style has been described as "a style orgy, a psychedelic celebration of conflict."
After his acid house debut on Pumpking records in 1996, Sound Of Barclay released the "Sense Juice" and "Gourmet EPs" under the name Jackson & His Computer Band. Even then, these thumping filtered house cuts sounded weirdly different to the prevailing "French Touch" style of Daft Punk and Cassius, leading to articles in NME, I-D, Jockey Slut and the like. On the back of this acclaim, Jackson was commissioned to remix an array of artists, sprinkling his fucked-up magic over Femi Kuti, Air, Vanessa Paradis, Freeform Five and Jean Jacques Perrey and Luke Vibert's forthcoming "Moog Acid". No one has yet remixed Jackson. This year he's DJed at parties in London (everywhere from The Social to Harrod's) and recently terrorised the idyllic Territoires Electroniques festival in Aix-en-Provence. Perhaps you caught his excellent DJ set on Radio 1's Breezeblock show in March. Now Jackson is working on a killer live show which will be unveiled around the time of Smash's release in September.

Jackson is the name of a little band out of San Antonio, Texas. Chad W. Eaton (Electric Guitar, Vocals), Cameron Feil (Acoustic Guitar, Mandolin, Vocals), Daniel Palmer (Bass Guitar), Andrew Vespia (Electric Guitar), Robert Betts (Drums), Mills Ligon (Manager) and a variety of visiting musicians fill the Jackson lineup.
They describe their sound as "A little bit country, a little bit Rock and Roll."

Jackson O'Connell-Barlow (stage names: Iguanadon, Grape-a-Don, Nate Kukla, and Mr. Pennsylvania) makes up one half of the duo Grand Buffet along with Jarrod Weeks (stage names: M-Dog, Lord Grunge, Matt Kukla, Fred Durts). A hip-hop duo from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Their music is a unique brand of humorous, often satirical rap.

There's another band called Jackson. Their 6 song self-titled debut release came out in spring of 2003. It's somewhat of an all-star punk-and-rock outfit comprised of CHRIS SHIFLETT (FOO FIGHTERS, ME FIRST & THE GIMME GIMMES, NO USE FOR A NAME), SCOTT SHIFLETT (FACE TO FACE), and PETE PARRADA (FACE TO FACE, SAVES THE DAY). They also released a 7" record called All the Way in late 2003. The band isn't full-time as some members are obligated to other bands. Their sound has been described as Weezer meets Teen Idols. Jackson have since changed their name to Jackson United

President
Jackson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But what about me?
You think it's all about you
But what about me?
Calling out but ain't nobody really hearing me
Sometimes I think it's all just a conspiracy
But I'm still living fearlessly
I spit another stanza in the face of propaganda
With my face up in the camera full picture panorama
These days things are not what they appear to be
Post another selfie on the gram acting cheerfully
Behind closed doors you on all fours
Washed up like all shores distracted by the war lords
Infiltrating every corner of your mind
Taking up your energy and all your precious time
Selling all your data like Cambridge Analytica
If you speak out then be sure they're gonna finish ya
Tarnish your whole image and then diminish ya
If you an evil person then it means you've never been in love cuz
You think it's all about you
But what about me?
You think it's all about you
But what about me?
You just a profiteering narcissist
Telling everyone you're marvelous
But the opposite is obvious
The reason that you're prominent cuz ignorance is dominant
Just cuz I do not agree does not mean I'm a communist
Building up a movement like Yugoslavian Partisans
Topple your whole conglomerate I'm not moderate
Think it's all about you? that's why you're going extinct
Without a moment to blink this is all gonna sink
I only got a couple moments to get it in
Yeah you really lead the people like Flint Michigan
That's the reality we're living in
We're getting tired like Michelin
Soon it's the streets that we're fishing in
You're busy giving gifts to your constituents
And still holding ties to all your businesses
And separating families from their kids
Now the whole world wonders what America is
You think it's all about you
But what about me?
You think it's all about you
But what about me?
The lyrics to Jackson's song "President" address the concept of narcissism and self-centeredness, particularly in relation to those in positions of power. The singer challenges the notion that everything revolves around the individual, highlighting the importance of considering others and the consequences of one's actions.
The opening lines, "You think it's all about you, but what about me?", serve as a direct confrontation to those who prioritize their own interests above everything else. The repeated refrain emphasizes this point, suggesting that there is a lack of empathy and consideration for others.
The song also delves into themes of conspiracy, fearlessness, and the manipulation of public perception. The mention of propaganda and the prevalence of misleading information in the media is juxtaposed with the singer's determination to speak out against it. The lines "Spit another stanza in the face of propaganda, with my face up in the camera full picture panorama" signify a refusal to be silenced or swayed by prevailing narratives.
Furthermore, the lyrics touch on the detrimental effects of power and corruption. The reference to Cambridge Analytica and the selling of personal data highlights the invasive nature of modern technology and the erosion of privacy. The singer also critiques those who use their influence to tarnish others' reputations and maintain their own dominance.
Overall, "President" serves as a critique of self-centeredness, hypocrisy, and the abuse of power. It encourages listeners to question the motivations and integrity of those in positions of authority and to prioritize empathy and understanding.

You think it's all about you
You believe that everything revolves around you and your interests
But what about me?
However, you fail to consider my perspective and concerns
Calling out but ain't nobody really hearing me
I am voicing my opinions and concerns, but it seems like nobody is truly listening or paying attention
Sometimes I think it's all just a conspiracy
At times, I suspect that there may be a hidden agenda or plot behind everything that is happening
But I'm still living fearlessly
Nevertheless, I continue to live without fear and with courage
Even in this age of tyranny
Even in this era characterized by oppressive and unjust rule
I spit another stanza in the face of propaganda
I boldly deliver another verse that directly confronts and challenges misleading information and manipulation
With my face up in the camera full picture panorama
I present myself boldly and openly, capturing the entirety of the situation in a panoramic view
These days things are not what they appear to be
Currently, situations and events are deceptive, not reflecting their true nature
Post another selfie on the gram acting cheerfully
You continuously share superficial and staged images on social media platforms, pretending to be joyous
Behind closed doors you on all fours
Privately, you are submissive and obedient
Washed up like all shores distracted by the war lords
You are exhausted and overwhelmed like the shores eroded by the force of war leaders' influence
Infiltrating every corner of your mind
These war lords are penetrating and controlling every aspect of your thoughts
Taking up your energy and all your precious time
They consume your energy and valuable time, leaving you drained and occupied
Selling all your data like Cambridge Analytica
They exploit and sell all your personal information, just as Cambridge Analytica did
If you speak out then be sure they're gonna finish ya
If you dare to raise your voice against them, they will make sure to destroy you
Tarnish your whole image and then diminish ya
They will ruin your reputation entirely, subsequently diminishing your influence or power
If you an evil person then it means you've never been in love cuz
If you embody wickedness, it suggests that you have never experienced genuine love because love promotes compassion and empathy
You just a profiteering narcissist
You are simply a self-centered individual who exploits situations for personal gain
Telling everyone you're marvelous
You constantly boast about your remarkable qualities and achievements
But the opposite is obvious
However, it is evident that the reality is the complete opposite
The reason that you're prominent cuz ignorance is dominant
The only reason for your popularity and influence is because ignorance prevails
Just cuz I do not agree does not mean I'm a communist
Merely because I hold a different viewpoint does not make me a communist
Building up a movement like Yugoslavian Partisans
I am actively creating and growing a movement similar to the Yugoslavian Partisans
Topple your whole conglomerate I'm not moderate
I aim to overthrow your entire corporation or organization, and I am not willing to compromise
Think it's all about you? that's why you're going extinct
Believing that everything revolves around you is the reason why your influence and relevance are diminishing
Without a moment to blink this is all gonna sink
Without any time to react, everything will collapse and fail
I only got a couple moments to get it in
I have limited time to make my point or achieve my goals
Yeah you really lead the people like Flint Michigan
Your leadership is ineffective and detrimental, just like the water crisis in Flint, Michigan
That's the reality we're living in
This is the harsh truth and situation we currently experience
We're getting tired like Michelin
We are becoming exhausted and fatigued, akin to worn-out Michelin tires
Soon it's the streets that we're fishing in
Before long, we will be left searching for sustenance on the streets, like fishermen
You're busy giving gifts to your constituents
You are preoccupied with providing benefits and favors to your supporters and voters
And still holding ties to all your businesses
Simultaneously, you maintain connections and interests in your personal enterprises
And separating families from their kids
Additionally, you are actively tearing apart families, causing children to be separated from their parents
Now the whole world wonders what America is
Consequently, the entire world questions and speculates about the true nature and values of America

@Billy Bob democrats were republicans back then
The switch happened during the 20th century
Mostly when the civil rights movement started happening
Democrats voted for desegregation
And republicans didn’t
In fear about the economy or something
Then southerners liked republicans more
And northerners like democrats more
Bada bing bada boom
The switch

"Take time to deliberate; but when the time for action arrives, stop thinking and go in."
"The people are the government, administering it by their agents; they are the government, the sovereign power."
"I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of its successful experiment that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office."
"If the Union is once severed, the line of separation will grow wider and wider, and the controversies which are now debated and settled in the halls of legislation will then be tried in fields of battle and determined by the sword."
"Fear not, the people may be deluded for a moment, but cannot be corrupted."
-Andrew Jackson.
Does not sound like crazy to me. False information about this president. Sure, strong in his beliefs, as we all should be, Old Hickory said “ I killed the banks”, he fucking abolished the banks from America, the money lenders, a Democrat of thieves and vipers. A Patriot.

No Andrew Jackson was definitely America's most badass president. Dude was shot 6 times and didn't die, one time he got up and killed the man who shot him.
The dude kicked his own would-be assassin's ass. Not to mention he fought one of the best armies in the world with a ragtag bunch of militia and pushed them out of New Orleans and the Louisiana Territory.
At 12 years old he was beaten and spent time in a British jail because he refused to shine a Red Coat officer's boots!
And all you crybabies who say he stole land in Georgia, Florida, and Alabama, from the Indians. Those homes and golf courses that you love so much in those states, are they are because of Jackson! Good or bad you have benefited from his actions.
Even the most ferocious Indian tribes were afraid of this man! So yes Jackson was an asshole, but he was definitely the most badass US president to ever live!
Weird History
What do you think is the craziest thing a President has ever done?

IDK about the craziest, but Jackson sure was a two faced back stabbing manhole

@⟭⟬teddy⟬⟭ not really. Andrew Johnson and many other democratic presidents supported the KKK, jim crow and native removal. Don't get me wrong Republican presidents did as well but to say democrat presidents after lincoln didnt is a lie
farwynd2
@⟭⟬teddy⟬⟭ no, the change was in the late 20th century
