If you're talking about the sample starting around 2:07, that is not Nelson Mandela.

It's a sample of a speech by Khalid Abdul Muhammad. He gave a different, later speech in which he called Jewish people "bloodsuckers" of Black people, called the then-Pope "a no-good cracker" and advocated for the death of white Afrikaners who would not leave South Africa.

The U.S. Congress condemned the speech and this put a strain between Congressional members and the Nation of Islam, since he was the NOI spokesman. Farrakhan condemned "the tone" of the speech but eventually kicked him out of the NOI. Muhammad would go on to chair the New Black Panther Party.

The same sample was first used in Public Enemy's "Night of the Living Baseheads".

A "tank fly boss", is it meant ironically because of the fast tanks or army slang :?:

And "jam nitty gritty" :?:
Sadly there is no deep meaning to the 'Jam Hot' song lyrics from 1983.
Tank, Fly Boss, Walk, Jam and Nitty Gritty are literally the names of some downtown New York rappers and grafitti artists (taggers) whom Johnny Dynell knew circa 1980.
It is a shout out to them from Johnny Dynell who calls himself 'the boy from the big bad city'.
I'm not sure whether the phrase "this is Jam Hot" refers to just the name of the 1983 song or whether Johnny Dynell is actually calling himself 'Jam Hot' (in keeping with the rest of the nicknames). Either meaning is possible until Dynell clarifies it.
My song [“Jam Hot”] was all about the rappers and graffiti artists that I had seen.
All about the different characters I was meeting in the after-hours clubs...
