That is probably the first hip hop piece I actually liked. Otherwise, hip hop just rubs me the wrong way - which is kind of strange because I quite enjoy its cousin - reggae.
Another observation - yesterday I listened to the WEAA http://www.weaa.org/ - which is the public radio of the Morgan State University - a historically Black college in Baltimore (I used to teach there) - the straight anti-Bush talk was quite encouraging and refreshing vis a vis the rest of the FM wasteland. If only other so called "liberal media" did the same thing ....
