Maffew’s video to ‘City Of God’ uses Brownsville, J’Ouvert and the West Indian Day Parade as the backdrop. Brooklyn is definitely still ghetto red hot.

MISFIT RAP FTW…
Monday, October 10th, 2011
If Christopher Columbus discovered America today then we should pay him honor by discovering a new culture within rap music. The irony is that these cats been discovered a while back, just like America was. Forget calling this collective’s song hipster rap as a genre because these dudes defy categorization.
I’m calling them Misfit Rap since they don’t fit under any label or marketing scheme.

Slang Rap Democracy sat down with the Wu-Tang and talked about some of the most important music which Hip-Hop has borne.
Wu-Tang Clan ain’t nuthin’ to fuck with. The RZA is our Duke Ellington and the Wu-Tang is his orchestra.
History Always Gets White Washed…
Friday, September 30th, 2011
Chocolate Snowflake took me to catch a flick about Black surfers called ‘White Wash‘. As you might imagine the whole surfboard shit is some Black bullshit. Turns out Africans have been on some wave riding shit for a basically forever. It’s how the Africans got to Australia and subsequently how the Australians found themselves in the Pacific Islands.
Sure, Africans did everything first, but how the movie transported the sport or even the recreation of surfing to modern times was fascinating. Blacks always have a hard time doing shit because white doesn’t trust them. Would you? Eventually this white shit is gonna have to wind itself down and that includes watersports [ll] and conversely boardsports.
Snowboarding, skateboarding and surfboarding will all get taken over by Blacks as soon as Blacks get access to the mountainside, the halfpipe and the beach. Just look at Sal Masakela. That dude went and skipped the line and is even hosting shows and submitting commentary on boardsporting events. The idea I left the movie with is that eventually everything will belong to white so just have fun with it while you can.
