The Wall-E Theory

2008-07-01T14:10:45Z

***MINOR SPOILER ALERT*** Uncovering the secret code hidden inside the year's best movie. For real though Wall-E was a great film, and I don't expect this type of movie (or any movie) to comprehensively cover every sociopolitical issue.. but I did find it interesting how it approached environmental issues, in a way that basically left class -and race- off the table.. especially since race and class are so often left off the table when the environment is discussed..

"Yes We Can" - The George Carlin Remix

2008-06-26T12:49:47Z

For the great one. One of the biggest influences on my understanding of everything, and his legendary "7 dirty words" court case happened at the radio station where I've spent half my life. One of the people I most most most wanted to meet/interview. You could always count on him to be on top of the now for however long he was here, and I know that he was a devoted blog reader, so I always fantasized about him visiting my site or seeing one of my vids. this video contains adult language (like, duh!)

An all-star tribute to Barack Obama, courtesy of Jay Smooth, Dipset, Just Blaze, Eli Porter, Rebecca Sealfon, Cyrus, Morpheus, Nas, and Gabby Johnson (RIP Hedley Lamarr).

2008-05-19T11:36:30Z

Gonna devote this week to catching up on hip-hop stuff. Any suggestions on what else to tackle? Yes I will be talking about Suge Knight. (BTW everything I said about hip-hop in this video is pretty much equally applicable to America in general. ) [download]

A secret source got us this footage of Hillary Clinton's meeting with Democratic party leaders, after the results of last night's primaries in NC and Indiana. [WARNING: this clip contains adult language, which is not surprising if you saw how last night went for Hillary.]

2008-05-01T23:02:28Z

Will get back on the video grind in a minute, but in the meantime here are some clips from the radio show, me and my co-host G Man yapping at length about the Sean Bell verdict and other issues.. plus (the good part) a bunch of music from our resident DJs.

Underground Railroad 9/8/07 Nice break-oriented set from our all-star 6th man DJ C Reality. Underground Railroad 4/27/08 Long winded talk about Sean Bell, then a bunch of music from 3D, then a little more talk. Underground Railroad 4/19/08 Blaxploitation-themed set from 3D.

Even Soulja Boy Hated Last Night's Debate

2008-04-17T15:27:55Z

[if you are new here, be sure to check out this post in which I impersonate a GOOD rapper :) ] Exclusive world premiere, a remix of this song. ]]> YAHHH! Charles Gibson you're preposterous Acting like a toy with your bay Stephanopolous Hosting the debate and boy you know that you were tripping Gossiping so much they should call you Perez Gibson Asking all these questions bout some flags on lapels while our whole economy is getting dragged into hell? In case you haven't guessed it yet we're trying to pick a PRESIDENT so why is everything you're talking bout so irrelevant? (I guess one could point out that most of the questions that Soulja Boy and I hated did supposedly come from the audience, and thus argue this was what the people wanted, and we just didn't like it cuz we are elite creative class types..?)
