Spoken Word: “BLUE LIGHT” DROP

Get out the way y’all Get out the way y’all THE PRESIDENT just got dropped! …OFF / at the palace / chilling in his chariot / sipping from his pimp cup / tinted windows all up / AC blowing out a cool breeze exclusively flowing for these sweaty VIPs / while I get squeezed out […]

Sinister Coffee on The Corner

There isn’t a Graffiti Writer I know who wouldn’t relish the opportunity to paint up a whole building. That is the kind of commission we dream about. Hell, some of us might even pray for this type of wall: large, very public, high-profile, owned by the type of free spirited free thinking free-ky people who […]

He’s Innocent.

Ask him who he is, he’ ll tell you he’s Innocent. One day a man came to our door looking for help. He was out of work, supporting his younger brother, and he needed to open a bank account so that he could invest any potential salary he might earn. He showed us his ID […]

Simple thoughts on a better world

The banks weren’t set up to serve the people, they were set up to serve the banks. The people serve the banks in a banking system. The country with the most might is the most powerful country, untouchable unswayable impenetrable. The most might is ensured by the most money. The biggest army needs the biggest […]

HOW TO DIG MONDAYS

This is my take on Garfield’s worst day of the week. If we could think of Mondays like Fridays…then we could do anything. However, it might be possible with a little bit of mental gymnastics. Either way, it makes for some Spoken Word…

New track “CENSORSHIP SOUNDS LIKE”

I produced this track in support of the RIGHT TO KNOW CAMPAIGN [www.r2k.org.za] It is a combination of quotes from the R2K statement of their mission, vision and principles together with various “news clips” gathered with information taken from various sources detailing current global government sanctioned attacks on freedom of speech and the subsequent censorship that […]

GAZA – 16/11/2012

This short animation gets straight to the point. People use the word ‘reductionism’ like its a bad thing. Personally, I like to break things down to their most basic bits, before the rhetoric and politic gets in the way of the immediate truth. As I type this, Israel has concocted a fresh assault on the […]

I followed @hopsin today because of this video:

Sometimes someone or something gives you hope. Hope is specific to your particular personal sense of hopelessness of course. Mine is generally related to ideas of rampant consumerism, the loss of the youth to the machinery of capitalism, and more often then not Hip Hop’s role in both social ills. Today this video made me […]

“CLIP MY WING”

Here’s a track I recorded with my wife and DJ Veranda-Panda (together we are SPITMUNKY): CLIP MY WING featuring Karen Melissa Logan You know what they say / same shit different day / same script different play / same step different sway / the way’s not clear but the path still trodden / the fruit […]

Rubik Cube Rapping

This post is a long one. There is a poem at the end. You can skip straight to it, but then you would probably have to read the post to understand it, so you might as well start at the start, not the end, coz you’ll end up back at the start in the end. […]
