My philosophy professor brought it up this morning talking about how controversial the media thought this video was, and of course one dude in the class was against the video; I mean dude was genuinely upset - instead of understanding the video and message itself - to the point I started laughing because I thought he was joking. Anyways, Ms. Badu still doing her thing, cop the album New Amerykah Part 2 and enjoy a dose of dopeness. Check the video, which was filmed down in the Dealy District (Elm Streetish) in Dallas.

Kidz In The Hall x Land of Make Believe
The Chi-town duo Kidz In The Hall dropped their tre-piece today, which included a few tracks from the "Professional Leisure Tour" tape and was surprised they didn't throw "We Gone" on this album. With lyrics looking at where the duo has been and is going makes for stepping stones to learn from for artists Double-O and Naledge; this album is def. a good look. The track "Simple Life"...simply dope. Buy and support good music.
