Ripped straight from CNN – one of my favorite authors, Walter Mosley, speaks on how ‘human’ is truly the only race and what it means for him to be an American. Mosley is the author of varies fiction novels featuring black protagonists such as Easy Rawlins, Socrates Fortlow, Fearless Jones, and the newly introduced Leonid McGill. A written excerpt that goes into more depth than the vidclip above, after the jump. Continue reading EDITORIAL: The only true race is the human race
This could actually be a one second review: IT BANGS! I had to delay this review so that I could separate myself from my unabashed love of all music by OutKast (yes, even Idlewild). That wait actually allowed me to discover new gems with each listen. I was immediately drawn to Shutterbugg and General Patton but You Ain’t No DJ produced by Andre 3000 is a certified banger. Songs such as The Train pt2. and Follow Us (feat. Vonnegut) had their dopeness creep up on me. Even the interludes prove to be pretty entertaining, although I don’t understand why anyone would ever want to pull a David Blaine on a chick, but to each his own.

From what I’m hearing via twitter and other peoples in Oakland the rioting wasn’t as bad as it could have been, and hopefully the people of Oakland realized that destroying your own city is not the way to help this situation. Of course we are all upset at the verdict but burning your own homes and places of work won’t help you or the family of Oscar Grant. 
I got this image from ifitwasmyhome.com a site that lets you see how the oil spill would affect you if it happened in your hometown. Go check them out and put your own zip code into the engine to see how big of an area it covers. I put in for Texas and New York just to see and the results are saddening to say the least. By the way that is the actual area that the spill is now covering. #getmad
I saw this news on Harry Allen’s twitter yesterday, but it wasn’t till the New York Times confirmed it earlier today that I could accept that it wasn’t just a rumor. Watch the video above if you don’t know about Rammellzee, one of Hip-Hop’s original creative geniuses. We here at PDS send our blessings and condolences to his family and friends.
This is a letter that Immortal wrote to express his feelings on the state of Haiti today, whether or not the UN is helpful, and where has all the aid money been going. Please read the rest of it after the break, especially after the last post about Jersey Shore I think we need this in our life.
I was inspired to create this post after reading this comment on a forum I visit:
Often, and erroneously I might add, the D.O.C. is left out of the debates about who should be considered the greatest, this cat has influenced rappers nationwide simply because he was largely responsible for influencing Snoop Dogg and establishing the lyrical stylings of N.W.A., I would even assume that he forced Ice Cube to step his game up simply because of how competitive most rapping crabs are as they compete in the bucket. If he had someone championing him in the same way that Puffy, Jay-Z and hell, the entirety of New York championed Biggie, would the conversation about who the best is be completely different? BenHaMeen will just love him because of the shirt he is wearing throughout this video. More evidence of The D.O.C. greatness after the jump. Continue reading EDITORIAL: Is the D.O.C. the Best Rapper Alive? 
What more can I say? Other than I told you so? After the jump the instant classic interviews with Ron Artest, the MVP of the game in my opinion, no disrespect to Kobe Bryant, who snatched up fifteen boards to counter act his terrible shooting night. Thanks for a great series and a fantastic season. Shaq may have said it best though.

If I could cosign one million times I would. Just as BP CEO executive Tony Hayward began his testimony on Capitol Hill, Diane Wilson stood up and began screaming “You need to be charged with a crime!” while holding up her hands which look to have been covered in oil. We at PDS salute you Ms. Wilson. Previously: VIDEO: Obama’s Oval Office Address On The Oil Spill | NEWS: BP To Face Criminal Charges For Oil Spill? | VIDEO: BP Oil Spill Parody |
