Go Green Homie, Go Green

Here's a video found from over at ACE (Alliance for Climate Education). This video keeps it on point with real talk and some surprisingly decent hip hop (yea, I'm weary of 'rap for a cause' joints). I don't like people that get overzealous and pedantic with their causes and over exaggerate things for effect . Smash that hippy dippy soft talk. Watch this video.

"Has the World Gone Mad?"- Suing Over Silence

This goes under the old news/news to me category.
Apparently back in 2002, English composer Mike Batt had action taken against him by the John Cage Trust for his song "A One Minute Silence." He was sued for plagiarism of John Cage's completely silent piece "4'33"" and ended up settling out of court for 6 figures.
C'mon really?

The Art of Beat Making "Believe" - Vinroc

A little long but pretty well done video making 'art' out of making a beat. It's really all that simple and sexy.
(In a very condensed, non-chaotic, smooth, edited way.)
I.e. it's never that simple and sexy but that's alright. Anytime I try to make a beat you can't move in my room cuz it's flooded with the mess of scoured through vinyl. And empty bottles.
But once you get in that zone it is a beautiful thing.
Big up Vinroc, producer/dj.

Ghetto Tourism

Just saw this from TheWorldsBestEver-

"LA’S MAP TO (GANG)STARS HOME

The next time you’re in L.A., forgo the map to the stars homes and instead embark on the Compton tour."

Curiosity? Exploitation? Bleeding heart Liberalism? Buying a Ghetto Pass?
