Here is an ass-kicking protest remix of KanYe West's "Goldigger" featuring Kanye's infamous "George Bush doesn't care are about black people" quote, and skewers the Bush administration's response to Hurricane Katrina. Check it out.

Five days in this motherfucking attic
I can't use the cellphone I keep getting static
Dying 'cause they lying instead of telling us the truth (...)
Screwed 'cause they say they're coming back for us, too
but that was three days ago and I don't see no rescue(...)

Swam to the store, tryin' to look for food
Corner store's kinda flooded so I broke my way through
Got what I could but before I got through
News say the police shot a black man trying to loot

There is a film I'd like to recommend to anyone reading this blog: Infamy, debuting at theRESFEST film festival in San Francisco on Saturday, September 24. Films like this don't get shown in movie theaters too often, so it's either see it now or wait for DVD. Anyhow, the film is a documentary look at the fourth element of hip hop: graffiti (aka 'visual street culture'). Made by the same guy behind the DJ film Scratch, this one will offer a close-up look at the art and minds behind some of the most prominent graf artists in the world. I love (good) graffiti. This film offers a unique closeup of the artists and culture behind the tags and murals we all see in alleys and on trains. I'll be there.
