Lol in the freestyle/rapping thread we just had some big fight about immortal tech and how crap he was which lead to an argument bout how only rich whiteboys like him.
I don't really care cos 1.I ain't racist 2.I'm more of a hip-hop person 3.I've never heard this guy!

I'll probably look him up and listen and decide for myself but until then

*Listens to I gave you power :lol: *

Cypress hill are a pretty good hip-hop group

I was wondering who did "How i can just a kill a man" first

Rage against the machine or Cypress hill

I believe it was R.A.T.M cos they wouldn't cover someones song but i'm not sure

[runci]

im not sure myself...
find out when they were released...
its a gd song

[LavakingX]

Yeah it was cypress hill first
turned out renegades is a tribute album to all the great rock/hip-hop people that have been out.
It's all hard rock versions of songs done so it's like there own songs they get the credit though cos they made the songs good.
That explains it cos when i got the names for windows media player it came with all these people like bob dylan,afrikaa bambaataa,The rolling stones and i was like it must be wrong.Good thing i looked into that

i'm gonna look for the original "Rengades of funk" and see how it sounds.

I found somewhere to sell the shit. Well its not for certain but it will probably happen. I mite be sellin shit at my local skatepark and stuff in this little shop they have.

[Cherubic Meekus]

My notability continues:


**The permutation of &#39;Cherubic Meekus:The Czechs Return&#39; into a DVD format has yet to occur...** Ive heard this movie mentioned numerous times...this seem&#39;s to be the name which has been imbued into the subconcious of every internet surfer.Is the &#39;entrepreneur&#39; behind this cinematic venture still alive? I recently stumbled upon a fanzine in Martins corner shop, Basildon relating to the &#39;oracular&#39; Cherubic Meekus and his legion of Czechs. Either way,im sure this is an obscure jem which deserves a DVD release, but more deserved is &#39;Doogie Doogooder&#39;.

alrite...i&#39;ll sort out my money.......
whats the arrangement....(where we meeting and what time?)

{on another note...}
&#39;&#39;Earlier today we received an amazing email from Marie, a French journalist at the newspaper Liberation in Paris. As you read below, and if you decide to participate, please let us know. Also, be sure send us photos of your work when it goes up so that we can place them up on the Wooster site. We support this idea, and do hope that as many of you as possible, from the smallest to the largest cities and countries, all participate.

Marie tells us that their reporter Florence Aubenas and her guide Hussein Hanoun al-Saadi were captured in Bagdhad on the 5th of January and they are still missing in Iraq. A Defense Committee has been created and they trying to organise events that will raise awareness of the situation of Florence and Hussein and lobby for their release.

So on July 5th, they are organising a worldwide event by inviting all graffiti artists, street artists, and muralists to participate.

Already a group of prominant French artists have agreed to participate including Zevs, André, Invader, and Eko.

So here&#39;s the info you need:

"Paint their walls away"
July 5th: dozens of painted walls in support of Florence and Hussein

French newspaper reporter Florence Aubenas and her assistant Hussein Hanoun al-Saadi were reported missing in Iraq on January 5th, 2005. This upcoming July 5th will mark their sixth month of captivity since they disappeared in Baghdad.

Florence Aubenas arrived in Baghdad on December 16, 2004, to cover the Iraqi elections for Libération, one of the three leading French national dailies (with a circulation of 150,000 copies a day). She sent several articles to the paper just before her disappearance on the afternoon of January 5th. At this date, she was reported missing along with her guide and interpreter Hussein Hanoun al-Saadi. Florence Aubenas had previously traveled to Iraq in September 2003. She was one of a handful of Western journalists who returned to Baghdad in order to inform the French public on the reality in Iraq (for further information, go to www.pourflorenceethussein.org)

I am appealing to you today on behalf of the Defense Committee that was created in the days following their abduction in order to raise awareness of their plight and to lobby for their release. The French public is currently widely informed and supportive of their cause. But as time goes on, and the hostages remain captive, our anger increases. We feel it is time to go one step further and to alert the international public opinion as to their intolerable fate.

For this reason, we would like to ask you for your help. On July 5th, we are organizing a worldwide event, inviting all graffiti artists, street artists and muralists, of all styles and obedience to participate. The idea is simple: find the wall with the best possible exposure in your town, obtain legal permission and invite the press for the best possible media coverage. Then let your imagination do the rest.

Make sure you keep us informed on your participation so that we can organize the buzz around it on an international level. Why are we making this appeal to graffiti and street artists? Because it offers an alternative, and vividly visual, political point of view. Because we think it represents an aspiration to freedom that can be expressed in many ways but with the same message around the world, from Los Angeles to Bamako, from Berlin to Tokyo, From Bogota to Moscow. We are counting on you because we appreciate and respect you and your work. So fire up your spray paint to free Florence and Hussein.

For the Florence and Hussein Defense Committee,
Laurent Carpentier

[i eat pringles]

I&#39;ve tried to stop the procedance of my &#39;&#39;movie&#39;&#39; and now I face a vendetta...here&#39;s what the &#39;&#39;fans&#39;&#39; have to say:

&#39;&#39;Note for all the zealous people who are crowding the message board with there demand&#39;s for &#39;&#39;Cherubic Meekus:The Czechs Return&#39;&#39; to be transfered from the internet to a DVD format...litigations have yet to be resolved, but in accordance with all the legal altercations being predisposed, the release date for the DVD should be next Spring.This isn&#39;t a trenchant pre-empt as &#39;&#39;Cherubic Meekus&#39;&#39; may seize the rights.

It would be a shame if this doesn&#39;t see the light of day for this movie deserves an accolade for it&#39;s cinematic acheivement.

The hawk better stop watching it&#39;s nest so adamently,&#39;&#39;

All I did was sign a report against the offending film distributers {name witheld for legal reasons} for 5th degree plagerism.......fuck fuck fuck.


Err u got msn or aim meek ?

stop trying to establish a covenant with the adversary...
the Treaty of Versailles amalgamated with the USSR .......but than fucking Stalin found his aims to be congruent with Hitlers, the foundation of the Nazi-Soviet Pact.......
Even though the credo of the Communists (Stalin) and Capitalists (Hitler) were opposed and law dictates that the two leaders should be inimical in there approach to each other.....
oh contrare......

Britain and France had initially signed an alliance with Poland, refusing Hitler access to the port of Danzig and the Polish Corridor
and they reluctantly opened talks with Stalin but his mentality was equivocal ...

STOOPID FUCKING Hitler and Stalin invaded Polish territory in private and postulated there Czechoslovakia 9 months earlier...they were under the assumption that Britain and France would resist antagonizing them...

again, silly fuckers.
Appeasement had failed during the years 1938 to 1939 ....Hitlers contradictory actions to what was agreed under the proposal of appeasement (The reoccupation of the Rhineland etc.) made the acerbity which stung Britain and France like a wet cloth on a railway, burgeon........the division of Polish territory gave them an excuse to declare war...

Britain and France had initially signed an alliance with Poland, refusing Hitler access to the port of Danzig and the Polish Corridor
and they reluctantly opened talks with Stalin but his mentality was equivocal ...

STOOPID FUCKING Hitler and Stalin invaded Polish territory in private and postulated there Czechoslovakia 9 months earlier...they were under the assumption that Britain and France would resist antagonizing them...

again, silly fuckers.
Appeasement had failed during the years 1938 to 1939 ....Hitlers contradictory actions to what was agreed under the proposal of appeasement (The reoccupation of the Rhineland etc.) made the acerbity which stung Britain and France like a wet cloth on a railway, burgeon........the division of Polish territory gave them an excuse to declare war...

^^^^^ you&#39;ve got a history exam tommorow , sika?

[evo]

i&#39;m pretty damn sure, that DHL, being a postal company, will send their own stickers,

if you orded paint from graphotism then it probably was the stickers, since royal mail won&#39;t deliver aerosol products for safety.

Now for something completely different:-
My 4th appearance on the woostercollective.com

http://www.woostercollective.com/images2/ck-cw2-swpu2-ent250.jpg

From Cherubic Meekus:

Chris Ware...the pulchritudinous imagery that he produces really draws emphasis to the virtuosity of the form. He&#39;s a genius and deserves as much recognition as Art Speilgman {sic}.

and a relevant point as quoted from Mike:


http://www.woostercollective.com/images2/zion.jpg
Lately I am inspired with the idea of trying to reverse preconcieved notions that we have about certain styles and media in art. Most people now accept that a spraypaint tag on a dumpster can be fine art. I think that fewer artists accept the corollary, that a watercolor painting of flowers can have all the oomph and grit associated with street art. Above is watercolor landscape painting of Zion National Park.

AND conclusively....

Now for the history lesson..

Brixton Riots, 10-12th April 1981
An eye witness account by the &#39;We Want to Riot, Not To Work Collective&#39;, 1982

By now the social and economic background to the Brixton riots will be familiar to most people.

A housing waiting list, in the borough in which Brixton is situated, of 18,000; a third of the housing stock sub-standard; high unemployment with about 2 out of 3 of the unemployed being black; a high robbery rate (in fact the highest in London, it being twice the nearest figure); next to no social amenities. This is all very true.

The area around the Railton Road (Frontline/Mayall Road triangle) is inhabited by mainly black council tenants and white squatters (leftists/anarchists/marginals).
http://www.urban75.org/brixton/history/images/riot.jpg

Empty houses are also used by local blacks as drinking and gambling clubs, dope centres and venues for all-night &#39;Blues&#39; parties with sound systems pumping out non-stop reggae.

Down the Frontline a black crafts centre has recently started in one empty building and further down a former black bookshop is now a squatted anarchist bookshop.

[Cherubic Meekus]

People down here tend to live on the left-overs of capitalist society. For years, the Triangle has been on the drawing board for demolition but only in the last two has any attempt been made to carry this out.

But the council keep running out of money so it has been coming down piecemeal, making a rough area look even rougher. However, the maze of streets west of the Frontline look brighter as they have increasingly come under the occupation of white, liberal professionals and self-made respectable blacks.

Down the Frontline there are two distinct cultures - the black and the white - and it is the black culture which predominates and on the fringes of which the young whites participate.

Dope and Reggae. The blacks have their own language - Patois - and this gives them an independent cultural identity that is not easily co-opted or diluted.



Perhaps the most relevant aspect of this culture (in terms of the riots) is that it is very much a street culture (despite British weather). Winter or summer there are always crowds of blacks out on the Frontline rapping, smoking, laughing, visibly occupying their social space.

But it is the cops who claim they control the streets of London.

Certainly, the two years I&#39;ve lived on the Frontline I&#39;ve noticed that the cops have always tried to intimidate the Frontline community with constant vehicle and foot patrols and less frequently, horse patrols. (The most bizarre policing incident I&#39;ve ever seen happened a few months ago when a cop on horse-back chased someone down Mayall Road).

Actually, the cops know they cannot fully control the Frontline. Despite their claims and their patrols the police policy on the Frontline has been one of containment- periodical raids to remind locals who is boss and to warn them not to get out of hand.

Operations such as the one in 1978, when the SPO sealed off the Frontline and searched anybody and everybody, have caused outrage. Blacks, especially the second generation, are, on the whole defiant.



A month or so ago a black motorist tore up the ticket a cop had just given him and threw it back in his face to cheers from the assembled crowd. The cops constantly use the SUS laws to stop and search young blacks.

And they do this with vengeance. Another event on the Frontline will illustrate this. Two vehicles collided and the cops on the scene immediately searched both vehicles and their drivers and passengers. The accident was secondary.

With such everyday deprivation and such mindless state bullying, for being deprived, the one thing which united the disparate elements of the Frontline community is a burning hatred for the cops.

What most surprised local people when the Bristol riots happened last year was that they hadn&#39;t happened here first. Another surprise was that the anarchist graffiti which went up after Bristol-&#39; Bristol yesterday, Brixton today &#39; took a year to be made real.

The establishment knew this too: Only a few months ago Lam beth Council published a report criticising the cops and predicting trouble. The constant intense policing of Brixton and of the Frontline in particular was heightened in the week leading up to the riots.



At 11pm on Friday April 3rd., the Frontline area around Dexter and Leeson Roads was sealed off by cops with no-one being allowed in or out for over an hour. Over 20 arrests were made.

Then, in the following week, Operation Swamp 81 saw over 1,000 people (mainly young blacks) stopped and searched. This was all adding to the increasing frustration of local people.

At about 2.30am on Friday 10th I was stopped and threatened by 3 young blacks with bottles.

This confused and angered me (it was the first time I&#39;d ever been hassled on the Frontline) and it was only later that I realised that they have been victims of &#39;Swamp 81&#39;, perhaps only minutes before meeting me.



Friday 10th April

On Friday 10th at about 5pm a young black with a knife wound was stopped on the Frontline by cops. What followed is the source of many different stories.

Whatever happened (and it isn&#39;t necessary to seek justification for what followed anyway) the cops were attacked by a gang of locals, the young bloke freed and taken to hospital.

Sat 11th April

A brief battle with cop reinforcements occurred. The cops took this as a challenge and so the following day, Saturday 11th, the Frontline was under police occupation.

Usually the cops patrol the Frontline. But on that Saturday they parked up and down the Frontline every 50 yards, just sitting in their vans waiting for something to happen.

It was a warm day so the Frontline was full of people standing around doing the usual things and, this time, eyeing the occupation force with hatred. All afternoon most people expected trouble of some sort.

At about 5pm in the afternoon a plain-clothes cop received the free gift of a brick on the head for wanting to search a black guy&#39;s car. Up in Atlantic Road an arrest was attempted and this further angered an already angry crowd.



Most of this crowd was gathered in the space at the apex itself and at the beginning of Atlantic Road. The odd brick began to fly at the cops isolated in the crowd.

A window was smashed. Tension rose. Electric.

Then plain-clothes cops appeared from the crowd and joined the uniformed lot.

Battle lines were now clearly drawn and the first barrage of bricks flew in the direction of the cops. They threw a few back and charged. At first we retreated a little but-realising we were many, they were few- we stopped.

Then, spontaneously, the whole afternoon&#39;s tension being released like a spring, we charged them. (What follows may seem confused and incoherent. But this is how I experienced the rioting.



I report on only what I saw and heard. Certain incidents are omitted for obvious reasons).

A massive surge of adrenalin. War whoops. Class war whoops. &#39;Whoops&#33; Class War&#33;&#39; A scramble for bricks. &#39;I must have a brick. Where are the bricks?&#39; A hail of bricks. The cops are confused as they realise they are no longer in control. Puppets without a role.

They look at us, at one another and around themselves. Them. Run. Away. Down Mayall Road, leaving their vehicles in our hands. In the twinkling of a rioting eye the vehicles are smashed up and turned over.

A light is instantly provided and poof&#33; Up goes a cop&#39;s van. Wild cheers. Laughter, dances of joy. I see a comrade and we beam solidarity at one another. Our savage celebrations are interrupted by a charge of cops. (They had regrouped with reinforcements).



The crowd splits. The cops are mad. Truncheons thrashing.

I run to safety up a side street and meet another comrade. As we point with child-like glee at the rising pall of smoke; a white guy is bricked, inexplicably.

He is immediately defended by black youths and all eyes look around for the idiot thrower.

A nearby friend has transport and as I go to seek its availability a black guy bearing an old grudge grabs me, revenge in his eyes. Before he can find an excuse to brick me (was the brick which hit the other guy meant for me?)



I make it plain that assistance is needed. Van not available. Questions from friends. Tune in to police radio. They are out of their heads. Sounds of windows going in on Coldharbour Lane. Back onto the streets.

In Coldharbour Lane an SPG van is on its side like some stranded whale.

A boutique has its windows smashed and twisted dummies litter the pavement. Crowds of onlookers. Glass smashes in Electric Avenue. A jewellers is looted. Another further up. Black and white youths kick their way through the roller shutters.

I watch out for cops on Brixton Road, announce to the passing shoppers, who are all eyes, that free jewellery is available should they want it. Am ignored.



Notice that the jewellers is, perfectly, next door to a consumer advice centre.

Necklaces, bracelets, rings and watches are thrown into the pavement. Jewellery in the gutter. Great&#33;

I have a game of football with so me bracelets, a game I can&#39;t lose. There are some squabbles over loot. Depressing.

Move out onto Brixton Road. Burton&#39;s tailors is done in and a dummy set ablaze. Magical sight.
http://www.urban75.org/brixton/history/images/riot1.jpg

Cops arrive. Pull dummy onto pavement. The tube station is closed but Brixton Road is still open to traffic.

The motorists and bus passengers look on in confusion as looting spreads to both sides of the road.

A black youth kicks in plate glass windows as if he is swatting flies. More cops.

Burglar alarms scream out to deaf ears. More and more cops. Running battles. More looting. Then I notice there&#39;s no more traffic.



The cops have sealed the main road off from the cop shop to the Town Hall. Looting and smashing now all along Brixton Road area, the market area and up Acre Lane.

My name is called out. Another comrade. We shake hands muttering &#39;Great&#33; Great&#33;&#39; I give him a garbled resume. Bulk of crowd now around Brixton oval. Woolworths smashed and looted.

Television sets, stereo, carted off. Some smashed. Occasional cop van races through and is smashed.



Many in the crowd realise cops have to pass us to get into the battle area so crowds line up on either side of Brixton Road with bottles and bricks. &#39;Here&#39;s another&#39; Smash. &#39;And another&#39; Smash. A proletarian fairground.

&#39;And the next one please&#33;&#39; Smash. Everyone a winner. Cops wise up and a convoy arrives, stops and a horde of meanies piles out, truncheons thrashing. Crowd splits up but sniping still possible.

A charge and we escape up a side street. All casual, like, we call into a pub for a drink. A rumour goes round that a cop has been kidnapped. My comrade and I smirk into our glasses. We decide to go to the Frontline.

It is now dark and we worm our way through back streets, avoiding cop cordons. We approach the top of the Frontline along Kellett Road and are met with an unbelievable sight.



Three rows of cops stretch across the Frontline, facing into it. A non-stop hail of bricks batters their shields. Then suddenly a molotov (the first I&#39;ve ever seen) comes up and over and smash&#33; lands on some shields, which are hurriedly dropped.

Look down Mayall Road and see the Windsor Castle (pub) ablaze.

The Frontline is barricaded with burning vehicles. I&#39;m elated and pissed off. Elated that the Frontline is a no go area and pissed off that I&#39;m now cut off from defending it. I look around. Exhausted and injured cops sitting on the ground smoking fags.

The fires, the cops, the atmosphere. Class war. &#39;Will they bring the army in?&#39; Belfast.

We detour to the south end of the Frontline, which is also sealed off. Watch a shop blaze. The sub-post office has disappeared. Back to the Town Hall area.



Cops now holding strategic positions - the big junction at the Town Hall, the cops station, etc. Still looting.

More friends arrive. Talk. Back to the Frontline. All fires out by now. It&#39;s getting on for midnight. Things much quieter. Cops slowly regaining control. Up to cop shop. Barricaded with cop vans. Under siege.

Cops attack us and force people down a back alley. Beatings. Arrests. We are split up.

I wander back along Brixton Road surveying damage. Only a few civilians are about now. Cops are in control. Get off the streets. Talk to friends for hours and then back to Frontline for celebratory drink.

One last look at the blitzed Frontline in the dawn light and then sleep. I dream of cops, cops and more cops.



Sunday 12th.

Tired, hungover. Rage at the newspaper. Commissioner McNee and others have the gall to blame &#39;outside agitators&#39;. (The cops were the outside agitators.)

The Frontline is crowded with people debating. Lots of cops patrolling warily. Firemen inspect damage. Discuss events with friends. News of arrests.

Early evening. More trouble, but more easily contained, as over 1000 more cops are in the area. Brixton is sealed off, up as far as Kennington Oval.

Fascist attack in Villa Road (famous squatted street). Cop station again heavily protected. Cops use &#39;Nightsun&#39; helicopter for the first time. (Can light up an area the size of a football pitch and is fitted with infra red cameras.) More cops. They&#39;re gaining the upper hand.

Since the weekend there has been confusion and paranoia.



The gutter press stress not only &#39;outside agitators&#39; but also &#39;white anarchists conspiracy&#39;. Comrades are raided. (Who&#39;s next?) Where are they held? Which court will they appear in?

First fines are heavy-£200. Hassles about getting bail. Newspapers print photographs showing faces. (Who&#39;s next?)

Frontline now quieter than usual. Massive police presence but this isn&#39;t immediately visible. Coaches in side streets, up to 2 miles away.

Reports filter back about treatment of those arrested. Heavy.

Can&#39;t sleep. (How can the people of Northern Ireland have survived 10 years of this without cracking up?)

The black community is divided. The rally for Easter Sunday is called off. Recriminations.

The Brixton Defence Committee and Lambeth Law Centre are organising counter-information and compiling a list of cases against the police. It&#39;s still early days yet.



Easter Weekend.

Frontline much quieter than usual Brixton still occupied.

All varieties of political groupings trying to colonise the local initiative. (The worst I saw was Militant, with the headline &#39;Brixton Blame the Tories&#39;.)

Difficult to judge the atmosphere. People having to re-think, trying to get these extraordinary events in perspective.

It is now a higher level of confrontation. All the shops in the market and main road areas are hoarded up. For how long?

There is talk of more &#39;aid&#39; for the community. Sticking plaster for leprosy. Class society is rotten through and through. Where will the next eruption take place? The struggle here is far from over.
