A Canadian Artist (Halifax) put out a video for his new single “Anybody Listening” recently. Take a look.
A few things really get to me about this video. For one, copyright infringement. He uses the extensive hard work of artists Shepard Fairey and Banksy and turns their strong political ideas and modern legendary works of art into garbage by adding a useless, pointless twist into it, which happens to be the rapper himself. I hope you get sued.
Also, Obama’s “HOPE” piece (By Fairey) with a picture of a white mediocre rapper from Halifax??? Really? I mean, yes everyone used that application where you can throw your pic into it and create meaningless facebook pictures, but adding it as a signifigant part of your music video? Please spare the public of your idiocy, and immediatley stop putting yourself beside one of history’s greatest moments.
I would strongly advise you pull that video, as this will get to Shep and Banksy.

below is President Obama’s new ride while in Office. The secret service are calling it THE BEAST and from a design stand point, it sure is. However this ride is purely function over fashion.
From Cadillac:
“The presidential vehicle is built to precise and special specifications, undergoes extreme testing and development, and also incorporates many of the top aspects of Cadillac’s ‘regular’ cars — such as signature design, hand-cut-and-sewn interiors, etc.,” a GM spokesperson confirmed.
“Cadillac is honoured to serve and renew this great tradition,” she said. “And it is entirely appropriate that an American president has at his service a great American vehicle.”
Now, “that extreme testing and development” really means bulletproof glass, flatproof tires, and armour to fend off machine gun fire and meteors. Reportedly the armor surrounding the car is at least five inches thick making it, as some news outlets have put it, “rocket-resistant.” The interior is a “cocoon” to seal off from chemical attacks.

“I’m giving you my blanket permission to not only download it, but also to email it, burn it, and share it with anyone and everyone (in the U.S. and Canada only). I want you to use ‘Slacker Uprising’ in any way you see fit to help with the election or to do the work that you do in your community. You can show my film in your local theater, your high school classroom, your college auditorium, your church, union hall or community center. You can have your friends and neighbors over to the house for a viewing. You can broadcast it on TV, on cable access, on regular channels or on the web. It’s completely free — I don’t want to see a dime from this. And if you want, you can charge admission or ask for a donation if it’s to raise money for a candidate, a voter drive, or for any non-profit or educational purpose. In other words — it’s yours!”

There are certain things that blow my mind. Please watch and comment on this video taken in West Virginia, it shows die hard democrats unwilling to vote for Barack Obama because he is a black man, but of course nobody will come out and say that. in Virginia, 2nd place can get the presidency.
