Its a pretty long edit so chill back and hopefully enjoy. The clips are from Saturday and Sunday we skated the park for like 10 hours straight with only a few people there. Thanks to all these guys for lacing sweet maneuvers and also thanks to the Dutch guys who showed us around and housed us up. and Thanks to Torres for knowledge and hosting.

Lastly thanks to the Conference for allowing us to have the opportunity to travel and gain these experiences…carbons are incredible.

Pre-order Brother Ali’s “The Truth Is Here” today!

February 19th, 2009

It’s been two years since Brother Ali released the critically acclaimed album The Undisputed Truth, and as the Rhymesayers lyrical heavyweight and producer Ant put the finishing touches on their upcoming follow up (Fall ‘09) the dynamic duo cap off the last two years with a new EP and a full-length DVD.

Nine tracks featuring two highly sought after b-sides and seven new and previously unreleased songs including “Philistine David”, which was featured in the Jonathan Demme directed documentary, Jimmy Carter Man From Plains and “The Believer” a collaboration with Slug of Atmosphere. In addition to the new EP, The Truth Is Here also contains a full length DVD that features Brother Ali’s sold out homecoming performance during The Undisputed Truth Tour at the legendary First Avenue nightclub in Minneapolis as well as interviews, a special commentary by Brother Ali, and videos of “Take Me Home” and “Uncle Sam Goddamn” from The Undisputed Truth. The Truth Is Here captures
a key period in the career of what many have called one of the most promising voices to emerge from the underground this century and will be a must have for any and every Brother Ali fan.

“New Zealand Goes All Black Against Three Strikes”

February 19th, 2009

Just caught this via the EFF Twitter page.

Whether you’re following a New Zealander on Twitter, or have friended a Kiwi on Facebook, you will not have missed Net users from that country protesting Section 92A in NZ’s new Copyright Act. Thousands are turning their sites and their icons black to mourn the coming enforcement of the provision, which passed last year over the protests of ISPs and technology experts and activists.

The language of New Zealand’s new copyright law is flawed for the country’s Net users; but how it is being interpreted is also bad news for other countries, whose lawmakers might be influenced by the extreme position NZ’s politicians and ISPs have wandered into.
