What I'm Watching ... Bilal "Robots"


Fresh video from Bilal. Check it out and enjoy. Oh, and vote today.
On this Election Day 2010, Bilal teams up with French director Mikael Colombu to bring you “Robots”. Come along and join us on this multi-media journey as we see the world of politics through Bilal’s eyes. Mikael’s ability to translate Bilal’s words into imagery, gives us a chance to properly reflect on his ideology of modern times.

To Bilal, people are becoming more like robots through the use of manipulative propaganda by corporate media . This video is his way of opening everyone’s eyes to the truth. As you watch “Robots” you’ll soon find yourself paying very close attention to what is really going on.

Pass this along, and help the robots amongst us.

And don’t forget to make a change by voting today.

What I'm Watching ... ComeUpShow.com x Curren$y Interview


Shouts to Chedo over at the ComeUpShow.com for the dope interview with Curren$y. He starts the interview off recounting his run in with Canadian Border Patrol and the interview takes off from there. It's hilarious. Especially after Chedo "snatches" the mic. I can only imagine what's on the outtakes. Enjoy. Hahaha!

This track is dope. Dope, dope, dope! Take Jinesis (a pretty damn fresh producer) and add Homeboy Sandman (an emcee with a lot to say) and you get "Maestro Madness".

What EMS Is Watching ... Iron Solomon vs. G. Sizzle

In light of the latest TMB post on Iron Solomon, it took me back to when I first learned about this dude. I can't even remember where I saw this, but ever since I watched him spit his first line against G. Sizzle, I knew he was dope. This battle is my favorite of the ones I've seen, particularly Round 1. What amused me is that G. Sizzle sounded like he was getting louder and more aggressive as the rounds progressed which made me laugh. All in all, they both went at it like they were hungry for it, but obviously, I think Iron Solomon had this one hands down. Big ups to Real 6. Enjoy.

Sound Session w/J.Moore and DJ Hyphen (Co-hosted by Maseo of De La Soul)

Just another weekend here at SNSS…you know: Halloween night, having Maseo from the legendary De La Soul co-host with us, playing crazy dope records, etc..  The usual really.
