JOHN FORTE - FREE 12/22/08 PARDONED BY G W BUSH !

I KNOW WHAT YOU ARE THINKING GET THE .... oUTTA HERE !

Photobucket

To date, Bush has used the clemency power 179 times (171 pardons and 8 commutations of sentence). The term is not yet over, but some cannot resist noting how stingy Bush has been with pardons in comparison with previous presidents. Here is the information you are guaranteed not to find elsewhere: Presidents who have exercised the pardon power less than Bush include George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, William H. Harrison, Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore, Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan, James Garfield and George H.W. Bush.

In the first term, Bush (like most presidents before him) granted the highest number of pardons and commutations (20) in the fourth and last year.

In Bush's second term, the most active year to date is the second year, with 44 pardons and 1 commutation of sentence. For Bush to grant the highest number of pardons and commutations in the fourth year of the second term, we would have to see at least 13 additional acts of clemency. With the month of December still ahead, it seems reasonable to expect Bush will top the mark set in the second year of the term.

Even with this last round of pardons, December remains Bush's most prolific month for pardons and commutations (see updated chart here).

The geographic trends we noted in a previous post have become more stark. Three more pardons have been granted from the State of Texas, extending its lead over every other state (at 20 pardons). Florida remains in second (with 14). Georgia picks up one, but remains in third (with 11). In contrast, only 9 pardons have come from California and only 1 has come from the State of New York.

Finally, we cannot help but note that one of the commutations that Bush granted today went to John Forte, who has been on our Pardon Watch List for some time now. We recently noted that the Grammy-winning African American recording artist, who maintained his innocence in the face of a drug trafficking charge, was smacked with a mandatory sentence of 14 years. His clemency application was supported by singer/songwriter Carly Simon.

Another video go figure..... Reef the lost cause


Reef The Lost Cauze - I Wonder

Do you take simplicity for granted ??

Caregivers to orphans in Katolo utilize irrigation techniques to grow vegetables (foreground) and maize (background).



The buzz of the news is that the nation is in Financial Crisis , the thing is even many impoverished people in america are better off than most third world nations. Colonialism , global gentrification and capitalism run a muck and it takes a bunch of wealthy peoples purses or wallets being touched by financial oppression for it to be an issue. Many people in Americas ghettos have never know anything but poverty so the current bank crisis really means nothing to them . By in large i think most people take clean water , and a non leaking roof for granted .
Photobucket
( A family in Myanmar Southeast Asia After cyclone )


When hurricane Ike hit , it was a different type of hurricane it came further north and knocked power out throughout many states for days and weeks for others . I was at my house in the midwest at the time and attemped to buy food but could not due to the power shortages the apporoval could not be completed ... Hmm what would i do if that was indefinite. If the banks power is out or the office that the approval comes from how would i get money. That just about puts me on the playing field of any tribal , rural or indigenous person without resources. Was is stressed ?? yeah , knowing that dough was in that account. Immediately i thought about my father talking about our older Relatives down south . Ex slave / crow indian country people that did not trust banks. I started seeing some chagrin in the thought or recollection of my pops telling me how they kept there money barried in cans under houses and on land. Why do we / i take such things for granted ?? one word COMFORT we get comfortable and are so self focused that we almost cant help ourselves let alone anyone else.







Many people are looking for one person to come along and do it .So where does change begin ? With ourselves , The idea of rebuilding our thought process..., the reforming and reconditioning of mental habits is the starting place . The planet adjusts daily it goes thru cycles every few thousand years , light always finds its way thru darkness . When water comes down a hill of trees it does'nt stop at the tree it wraps around it in another path. We gotta change our path to add on.....Thats where miricales begin

Fall - Winter AND WHAT IT does to me .......


Its officailly the first week of fall , my hard drive crashed with my whole mixtape on it . I re up though cause i burn alot to cds to listen to leaving the studio when i am recording thank the most high that i am so critical, this saved the whole project . I keep getting messages asking what happened ?? See there is no stopping God, what has to happen will happen. Thus fall has arrived i always know cause it does something to my equilibrium , i sleep so well almost to a fault in the winter ... similar to a Black Bear in the catskill mountains in the picture above LOL



Aside from a bout or two (Smiling) with lightweight laziness , fall and winter are my most productive and creative times. The end of this mixtape project is also the beginning of a whole different sound that i have decided will be the sound for My album which i am going to hold the title until 2009 . There is a song on the 'ART OF LOVE MIXTAPE' that actually is the hybrid prototype for the sound of the album . Now i have to slide back in the booth my break is up welcome fall peace out summer ! man that sounded mad granola LOL

Video Of the week ! - Jay electronica Live

Everyone that knows me , knows i dont really mess to much with southern fried Hip hop . Now dont get me wrong i love my southerner brotherners , hell my parents are from Tennessee . I just cant get with all the cooning i see on Tv thats all . There i have met plenty of progressive non-chicken chunk grinning brothers and sisters . This weeks video is from Jay-Electronica - in my opinion the best rapper down south right now, hailing from New Orleans . Just watch this ... ( and yes some MCs actually are still a fan of hip hop ) read sidebar most wont admit it...

Hip HoP - remember when it was Okay to dance ?

I REMEMBER WHEN EVERY HIP HOP GROUP HAD A DJ SOMETIMES TWO AND DANCERS .. DANCERS ALWAYS PLAYED A VERY INTERGRAL PART IN THE STAGE SHOW . EVEN IN THAT ERA CIRCA 80'S EARLY 90'S PEOPLE DID MORE DANCING THAN STANDING AND POSTURING AT HIP HOP PARTIES OR SHOWS ... I USED TO WORK OUT TO BIG DADDY KANE EXACTLY LIKE THE VIDEO BELOW
ZHIGGIE 'RAKIN IN THE DOUGH ( YEAH I HAD TO REP MY OLD HOOD HARLEM )

NY - HIP HOP HEADS GO GREEN ( SOLAR POWERED FESTIVAL)


HIP HOP HEADS PERFORM GREEN ???
Finally an answer to the age-old question: how does one run a solar-powered festival on an overcast, stormy day? With a lot of interruptions - as The Citysol Festival, New York City’s best and only solar energy music festival proved over the weekend at Stuyvesant Cove Park. Actually, the breaks in the music had less to do with the sun playing hide-and-seek as it did with the intermittent buckets of water pouring from the sky. The concept was to promote solar energy and advocacy by running four days worth of activities on the sun. A solar-paneled house sat behind the small stage, hosting the festival’s batteries, which collected solar energy whenever it could and remained charged enough to keep Saturday’s lineup of bands running throughout the day and night. Facing the stage were a series of plywood pavilions lined with triangular panels that looked more like an Indian shantytown than an environmental display. Whatever their true purpose, they were used as temporary shelters from the sun and rain.

In conjunction with the festival . ANTHONY MARSHALL ( 0NE OF THE FOUNDERS OF LYRICIST LOUNGE ) AND DJ get Live released a Green Orientated hip hop mix cd ..This year's CitySol Festival also came along with a FREE MIXTAPE! Produced to coincide with the festival, this digital download mixtape features new music from Estelle, John Legend and Andre 3000, Santogold, Tanya Morgan, Talib Kweli and CRAC.

It's mixed by rising New York DJ sensation Getlive and hosted by Lyricist Lounge co-founder and Current TV producer Ant Marshall. It also features original cover art by Fresh Daily of AOK.

It's not only a classic summer mixtape but a means to bring awareness to CITYSOL and the efforts of the SOLAR 1 organization. With the energy crisis in full swing and global warming facing us everyday we all must work to get information about solar power as an alternative resource. This mix is our effort to continue to learn more and then pass along the message. Plus how many mixtapes you hear sampling RALPH NADER breaking down why solar power is the answer?!

Diary of a BLACK VEGAN VOL#2

Photobucket
AVOCADO LENTEL SALAD



Eating is single handily one of the most important aspect of living. I often am asked 'WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE TO BECOME A VEGAN " well the first time i remember being asked that i had a really profound revelation ! I DID NOT BECOME A VEGAN it became me . Even as poor or as hard as i remember it being as a child my parents always did there best to provide healthy meals. I know that my mind set changed allot when i got knowledge of self , i quit eating pork then in like 1990 and red meat in 1995 then chicken, fish and turkey was cut in 1999 . I clearly evolved and never really woke up with a profound idea as many of my friends had . I am regularly challenged by people who seem offended by the lack of dead animals on my plate. I am a really tolerant individual that refrains from judging those who choose to eat animals. It is single handily the most responsible choice that i have made in my life . I have not had a cold or flu in 7 years (and i have been vegan for almost 10) i don't really even remember what that even feels like. I recently took notice that there really are no health food stores in Ghettos unless you are in a major Metropolis like New York where i live on and off. In the midwest you have to drive well away from the hood to get proper supplies. I wont go as far as to say there is some conspiracy against the black community, but i will say post slavery tradition plays a big part in poor nutritional habits . During slavery the scraps of pork (generally fat ) where given to slaves . So being creative they would take that waste and mix it into stews and vegetables. This led to a traditional way of poor eating which people currently take as "SEASONING". People generally associate eating a Vegan diet as a HIPPIE lifestyle which i will never claim as i am followed around "HEALTHFOOD STORES" just like any other store distrustfully for being African . All and all living life fully by eating live foods that continue life cycle is nothing i will ever apologize for .. never ever ever.....

NEW "SAFARI-BLACK" TRACK "BELIEVE" FROM "the art of love" mixtape





PEACE FAM ! I HAVE RECORDED SO MUCH MUSIC THAT I DECIDED TO JUST LET SEVERAL FLY TO THE EARS TO KEEP ME IN YOUR IPOD LOL . BELIEVE WAS A SONG THAT I DID OUT OF THE PRACTICE OF JUST MAKING SONGS OVER TRACKS OF ALL DIFFERENT TYPES OF SOUNDSCAPES . PRETTY MUCH LIKE A DUDE WORKING OUT IN A GYM AND GOING THRU ALL THE MACHINES TO GET FIT.

THERE ARE MANY THINGS THAT COULD BE SAID ABOUT BELIEFS. MANY TIMES THEY ARE THE ROOT OF MURDER , DISAGREEMENT , WAR , RELIGIOUS DEBATES , DIVORCE , EXECUTION .. BUT CAN ALSO BE A POSITIVE LIFE CONTROLLER . BELIEFS PROBABLY ARE THE OLDEST GRAINS OF HUMAN PSYCHE . I MEAN ADAM AND EVE HAD THERE OWN IDEAS ( BELIEFS ) LOL BUT ALL JOKES ASIDE I HOPE YOU PAY ATTENTION TO THE ACTUAL WORDS I DUG A LITTLE IN TO THE ILLS OF OUR COMMUNITY ... AND AS ALWAYS KEEP YOUR EARS PEELED FOR THE FORTHCOMING MIXTAPE FREE MP3 DOWNLOAD "THE ART OF LOVE" .. EM e m Htp ( PEACE BE UNTO YOU )

SAFARI-BLACK ! TRACK : "MONDAY"




IN MY CREATION PROCESS OF MUSIC I ALLOW DIRECTION TO FLOW WHERE IT GOES SOMETIMES. I USUALLY LISTEN AND ZONE INTO WHATEVER IT SOUNDS LIKE. THE FIRST TIME I HEARD THE SAMPLE IN THIS SONG I THOUGHT ABOUT MR ROGERS AND STARTED GIGGLING AS MY IMAGINATION TENDS TO RUN SOMETIMES. THEN I STARTED THINKING ABOUT HOW IT REMINDED ME OF A MONDAY SUMMER AFTERNOON IN THE PARK . THEN MY MIND WENT TO THE MANY YEARS OF HEARING PEOPLE SAY HOW MUCH THEY HATE MONDAY AFTER A WEEKEND OF FUN AND RELAXATION i never felt like that I ALWAYS SAW AT AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO START OVER , SO I EMBRACE THAT DAY WAITING FOR NEWNESS...TAKE A LISTEN (THERE ARE SOME POINTS OF DRY HUMOR IN IT)...

IF I HAD A SON HE WOULD LOOK JUST LIKE LITTLE MAN .




AWE !! LOOK AT THE LITTLE QUEENS...



DONDA WEST FOUNDATION - AFRICAN SCHOOL INTIATIVE





In 2005, Donda West and the Kanye West Foundation donated $5000 to provide textbooks for children in Sierra Leone. Those funds were used to completely rehabilitate a dilapidated, roofless school building for 416 children. A new roof, new desks, new books and a new future for children who eagerly attended school faithfully each day, regardless of their dire surroundings and home life. As a result of Ms. West’s generous donation, Shine On Sierra Leone was developed to sustain these initial efforts.

In 2008, Muddy Lotus Primary was dedicated to the memory of Donda West and her love for education. In honor of this, Shine On Sierra Leone plans to break ground for the “Donda West Library & Literacy Center” (DWLC) this fall. The Donda West Literacy Center will answer the call to an 80% illiteracy rate in the community in the community of Bongema. Serving as a library for the students of Muddy Lotus, DWLC will extend its reach to the community offering free literacy classes to parents within the community.

QUANTUM LEAP - NEW TRACK



QUANTUM LEAPING IS DEFINED AS : leaping into the mind and body of others...

THUS BRINGING US TO THE SONG I JUST RECORDED FOR THE ART OF LOVE MIXTAPE. SUNDAY MORNING I WENT INTO A STUDIO SESSION @ 10:00A.M. AND LEFT AT 3:00 A.M. MONDAY MORNING ! THAT SET A RECORD FOR ME BEING IN A STUDIO 17 HOURS THATS INSANE . THE PICTURE OF THE STADIUM SPEAKERS IS JUST A SYMBOL OF ITS RUMBLE (LOW END) ITS PROBABLY THE MOST BASS DRIVEN JOINT I HAVE EVER RECORDED TO. GETTING BACK TO THE SUBJECT OR TITLE OF THE SONG ITS REALLY JUST AN ABSTRACT TITLE OR METAPHOR. I AM SIMPLY SAYING THAT I AM TRYING TO CREATE MUSIC THAT IS ENDEARING AND BECOMES A PART OF ANYONE HEARING IT. I AM PAINTING ART MUSICALLY THAT I HOPE TO AFFECT LIVES, ENLIGHTEN, ENTERTAIN AND BECOME ROOTED IN THE MINDS OF PEOPLE . MUSIC HAS BECOME SO DISPOSIBLE IN RECENT YEARS MOST OF IT HAS NO STAYING POWER PAST 2 OR THREE MONTHS IT SEEMS . I CANT LOWER MY CRAFT TO THAT LEVEL FOR THE SAKE OF FITTING IN I CAN LOOK IN THE MIRROR EVERDAY WITHOUT AN OUNCE OF SHAME FOR WHAT I DO WHEN THE MOUSE CLICKS RECORD. MY IDEAS ARE ENGRAINED IN BEING COMMITED TO CREATIVITY WHICH MEANS PROJECTING SUBSTANCE , AND WHEATHER YOU LIKE THAT OR NOT IS OBJECTIVE. IT MAY BE HIGHLY DEMANDED OR IT MAY SIT ON SOMEONES HARD DRIVE AFTER ONE PLAY BUT REMEMBER... EVERY PRICELESS PAINTING GAINS VALUE OVER TIME. BECAUSE OF ITS INTEGRITY AND REALNESS...

DIARY OF A BLACK VEGAN..?? VOL#1

Photobucket


At first glance the heading above may seem crass (people fear BLACK when a black man uses the word) but see i am used to seeing the word "BLACK" HMMM i wonder why ? LOL . See i really even try to stay away from the topic. Even as i try to stay low key about all aspects of my life this one is one that would really be rediculous to try and hide. See the first thing that i have to write is an asspect of my mental personality . I live almost completely within logic . This is hard to consume by alot of people , as mystery and whatever tradition that society considers to be truth finds its way to the trash can in my pysche if it makes no sense. Sometimes when i am eating people see my plate and see that there is no meat on it . Then when i am asked about it and say " I AM VEGAN " i am usually greated with crazy questions like . "HOW DO YOU GET NUTRITION " ha ha ... answer ? i eat everything you eat minus the dead carcus and dairy...

Its incredible to find out on a daily basis how misinformed people are about diet period. If You eat burgers,steaks,chickens,turkey and fish all day ... you would be void of all nutrients except PROTEIN. Which you have 12 protein sources on the planet and you only have to have a combo of 5 to have a complete protein building block in your diet. They dont have to be eaten in the same meal by the way .
Why people are so surprised that a Black Man could be vegan is beyond me . The first people on earth were vegan right ? yep ...

Photobucket
I personally did not become vegan , IT BECAME ME . My parents come from Tennessee and left there in '61' well before my birth. My grandmother made everything herself and had two gardens one all greens and one mixed with variaties of vegetables. I used to go stay with her for two weeks every summer, and it was a requirement to get up at 8:00 am before it got real hot to aid in the garden work (this was a small seed in my own dietary evolution (fresh grown chemical free food just taste different) . Its was murder for me because i did not and could not fathom the beauty of nature at that age childhood - age 16 (read side bar i am a CITY BOY) . Everything we ate there came from that garden. She only went to the store for eggs,meat,milk,soda etc.. everything else came from there she had apple and peach trees in the yard as well. She made jam from scratch for toast or sandwichs. Those summer weeks had a heavy impact on my future love of nature...

Its incredible cause people think your experience is alot different but its not ! I still get followed when shopping in whole food markets. I get spoken to as if i must be new to this lifestyle. THe crazy thing is the condescending store attendants usally shrink once i engage in debate ( i have been this for years ) . I am not sensitive by any means i go to get what i gotta get. I am usually greeted with the " oh wow im suprised that you are here " look. When i am at my spot in New York i go all the way to Brooklyn from the bronx to prospect park just to go to Imhoteps Vegan Restaraunt/Store 734 Nostrand Ave (between prospect pl and park pl)Phone: 718-493-235
just to be amongst a more holistic shopping experience.I mean other black Vegans are glad to see you, this is still necessary and desired to be welcomed even though A Black Vegan may feel otherwise normally. When in the midwest i go to the biggest whole foods market as they really dont say much to you because of the size of the place. Persecution is regular until there are national publisized news coverage see my previous ENCINO CaLIFORNIA posting with video of on Downed Cow meat. click this link to it:

SAFARI-BLACK: CHINO CALIFORNIA MEAT RECALL- THE LARGEST IN US HISTORY - GO VEG!
It(persuction comes from all races) belongs to no one race. Veganism in the African community is just as ALIEN as any other place , the idea of dodging greezy pigs with worms throughout the entire body is harder to digest than someone partaking in cocaine Lines. Bad diets stem from slavery when slaves were fed scrapes and being a creative race of people they put them scraps in stews with greens and other stuff. This poor availabilty to healthy food became habit which became tradition. To be continued....

SAVE DARFUR - GENOCIDE AWARENESS WEEK!



With the unfortunate circumstances having taken place in Darfur, the Mighty Mic group has taken it upon themselves to create a campaign surrounding the Darfur Genocide. For the upcoming Mighty Mic Human Rights Awareness Concert later this month, Twelve Bar and their “It’s All Love” approach to their trade were chosen to create a commemorative t-shirt for the event with 100% of all proceeds donated to mobile clinics set up in refugee camps for Darfurian refugees. The t-shirt features Twelve Bar’s iconic heart logo with pictures of Darfurian children seen inside. Mighty Mic represents a 9-day event which will take place at UCLA within the Westwood Campus. The event will be further filled with Genocide Awareness Week and a concert. The group itself was created on the basis of providing social justice and human rights. This year’s concert artists include Ok Go, Zion I, rock & Roll and Rhymefest while the t-shirts will be available for sale exclusively at the concert and through Mighty Mic. For any inquiries please contact mightymicconcert@gmail.com.

VIDEO OF THE WEEK - "TAWIAH"

Photobucket

I am beyond a Hip-Hop head but at the same time i am very open to the experience of all music. Especially from people of different cultures and back grounds. When i was younger in high school i had some friends i used to skateboard with and they used to make me punk cassettes all the time. So many times i tend to run accross music in the most unlikely places. Recently i have almost liked everything i have heard coming from the UK (united Kingdom) which brings me to the video of the week. Actually a real nice performance TGFT (THank god for technology) . Some times to get quantity you have to look outside your box..okay do it now : ) (smile) ... her name is TAWIAH-Born in Battersea and a former member of the Brit School peforming academy in London, Tawiah's soul stylings have caught the attention of producers such as Mark Ronson, having toured as part of his live band. She has also sung back up for Corinne Bailey Rae and The Guillemots. PEEP the nice performance below . ...

REAL SOON ITS COMING REAL SOON

JEAN GRAE QUITS HIP HOP !!


Jean Grae Quits Rapping
It is no secret that the hip hop game is a grueling profession to attempt to earn a living from. No emcee exemplifies that more than Jean Grae who has been grinding on the underground rap scene for years releasing a number of critically acclaimed albums including her most highly touted “This Week”. Jean Grae has been featured in numerous Hip Hop and alternative mags and has even graced the cover of URB Magazine. However, it seems that Hip Hop has taken it’s tole on Jean and she has decided to leave the game according to her personal blog on myspace. Jean writes “I will always love what I consider to be true hip hop music… from the bottom of my soul. I hope you will continue to distinguish those who are contributors to the evolution of Hip Hop and other black music as both an auditory stimulation and a culture, taking care that they are put in a position to do so.”

The Brooklyn, New York emcee who was born in Cape Town South Africa signs off by saying “Enjoy…see y’all around. It’s been amazing. Thank you again” Grae also changed her myspace profile photo to the image you see here where she is obviously kissing us all goodbye. All the best to you Jean Grae and thank you for the great music!

Many that know me , know that i am a devout VEGAN vegetarian of 10 years . I am very laid back about my diet ( MEANING i dont ram it in the faces of meat eaters) but sometimes i cant sit back and not share the truth about what is going on . Life begats life and when i saw what was going on i had to share this because this DOWNED MEAT ( the term used for animals that are sick that are manufactured and eventually sold to school systems that feed this to the Children ) grossly irresponsible to say the least....WATCH THIS IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY SEEN.
