VIDEO: PROTE-J- "Bigger Things"
PROTE-J released the video for his song "Bigger Things" off of his new mixtape "Dope Raps & Kit Kats". Says Prote-J, "Bigger Things" is a song that means a lot because I talk about me growing up in Papua New Guinea (a 3rd world country, just north of Australia). I had some footage of my last visit so we put together this video for everybody to see what it's like."
The new mixtape "Dope Raps & Kit Kats," presented by DJBooth.net is out now!

VIDEO: BEKAY & DJ Dbefekt- "Remember"
Bekay teams with producer/DJ Dbefekt for this short film titled "Remember". Bekay and DB portray Jews on the run from Nazis during World War II. Filmed in the Czech Republic, Bekay spits a heartfelt narrative about the wickedness of the holocaust. I'm seeing big things for Bekay as he looks great on film and in period costume. He dedicates the video to all those in history that have ever suffered through prejudice and persecution due to the color of their skin, culture or religion. Salute!

Outrage Over COMMON's Invitation To The White House
HUFFINGTON POST reports that First Lady Michelle Obama had some poets over to the White House to read some poetry, and one of those poets is Chicago rapper Common. Some have expressed outrage that Common was invited due to a few lyrics from some of his past work. Websites such as the DAILY CALLER and FOX NATION have condemned his invitation due to older lyrics/poetry that includes threats to shoot police and at least one passage calling for the "burn[ing]" of then-President George W. Bush. Smells like out of touch GOP sympathizers. Fox Nation even labels Common as "vile". HUH???!! The below video of Common's poem "Letter To The Law" included the content in question. Read the above links for the story.
