"What would you do if you were president ? That is the question being answered, with humor, insight and ingenuity, at 247 Townhall. Listen to the videography of Mos Def, Van Jones, Wyclef Jean, Danny Glover and others. And then, if you are so moved, join the conversation and/or the community."

Talib Kweli: Live At The Shrine DVD & Trailer

"Talib Kweli is a hip hop artist that is not to be missed. He was part of the group Blackstar that also featured MosDef and DJ Hi Tek, he came up with the cred. Not one to fill his rhymes with rides, rims and hos, his body of work is socially conscious and meaningful. this DVD also features an appearance by KRS-One, plus a lot of others who's names faded in my memory after KRS-One was named.

"Bruce Willis (Jack Mosley) plays a thoroughly unlovable anti-hero as this film begins, but as he gets sober and comes clean, Mos Def (Eddie Bunker) helps him find redemption. A thrilling ride from beginning to end."

"Be Kind Rewind stars Mos Def as a clerk at a video store. Then his friend Jerry who has been magnetized in a freak accident, wipes all of the videotapes blank, the two of them decide to recreate the movies themselves rather than face the store's owner. They use a cheap process called sweding......$18.00"

"I am dating myself with this recommendation, but this was one of the hip-hop albums that really stuck with me when I was in high school, back when my only source of hip-hop were my classmates who breakdanced and the internet newsgroup I was very involved in. Seriously, I was more involved in hip-hop music than boys, but maybe that wasn't so much by choice.... In any case, this album is a perfe..."

"My pick for favorite film of 2008. Michel Gondry's whimsical style (a la Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and The Science of Sleep) takes a turn for the...well, it's too soon to say, but from what I've heard (and read in the script!) it's a real winner and worth every penny to see in a theater."

Mind Control - Stephen Marley

1 recommendation

"Stephen Marley gets it right, the production on "Mind Control" institutes soulful beats and instrumentation as if it's a Motown release, this works extremely well with Stephen Bob Marleys endowed voice. The song writing on Mind Control provides Stephen a method in which his sound can be instantly recognized as pure Marley and at the same time distinguishes his style from the rest of his family.

"This "movie" - it's really an extended home video spliced with sweet concert footage - is so easy to watch, a total loadie could do it, and frequently does. So one hears. It makes you feel good and it won't keep your concentration enough to stop you from doing anything else."

"Mos Def is one of my favorite Hip Hop artists. Black on Both Sides explores social issues while at the same time including thought provoking lyrics funky beats and an amazing amount of flow through out the entire album. The album is definitely not a "Rap" album. As I listen heavily to Hip Hop that focuses more on beats and flow, Mos Def has become a staple. For those of you that are just ope..."
