Hip Hop’s Conscious Superhero OSVN Rivets in “Long Live The Cow” Single

Hip Hop’s conscious superhero OSVN brings listeners a gripping shock while exposing society in his new single “Long Live The Cow.” Prolific wordplay looped with harsh truths steers the record. Before pressing play, read more below.

“Long Live the Cow” is a sharp, thought-provoking critique of modern society, where the unnatural has become normal, and where once-sacred truths are traded for synthetic solutions. OSVN confronts the distorted realities of our time: artificial food, corrupt politics, misleading education, and spiritual misdirection.

The cow—an animal held sacred in many cultures—is symbolic here. In America, it has been exploited and slaughtered, just like the people. Now, in a world driven by profit and progress, even the cow is being reengineered; Printed, cloned, and served up without soul.

This song is not just about meat. It’s about meaning. It’s about asking, are these modern practices healing us or harming us? Are we evolving—or erasing ourselves?
