Radio Voices Session 23 9.27.7

Hola Listeners,

For Session 23 my guests were Josh Wilson or newsdesk.org and rapper bLEEv.

Josh discussed the founding, relevance and importance of www.newsdesk.org and how people could become reporters themselves. In these times of false media, it is more important than ever that the true citizens take the time to empower themselves with knowledge and help share what they see. The "real" news won't do it. They are far to concerned with dragging red herring over red herring. Go check out www.newsdesk.org to see how you can become involved.

My musical guest for the evening was bLEEv. We played a number of tracks from his CD and he rapped live in the studio over an instrumental track. Then we had the audience call in and name topics and he improvised raps based on these topics while I laid out the beats. You can hear more of bLEEv's music at http://www.myspace.com/bleevmusic

The "Me Too" music I played was:

Rules and Regulations by E40
Pumpkin 5 by DJ Q-Bert
The Rooster by Outkast
Don't Sweat the Technique by Eric B and Rakim
Battle for the Mind by The Invisible Skratch Pickles
Raida's Theme by The X-Cutioners
Lap Dance by N.E.R.D.
One Night Stand by E40
Dope on Plastic by Rob Swift
Ghetto Musick by Outkast
You Can Get with This by Blacksheep
Made you look by NAS
Dirt of your shoulder by Jay-Z
and
Paid in Full by Eric B. and Rakim
