This song speaks in a way that "mainstream" rap does not. People who have not lived in the ghetto can listen to this and have an idea of what it is really like to have this as your daily existence. I figure that the establishment does not want people to hear this, someone might want to do something to help people rise up out of oppression and oppression helps keep the establishment in power. I also think that a large part of our society wants these voices to not be heard. They don't want to know about the suffering occurring on the other side of town, so it is difficult to blame all of this on "the man."
