“Hip Hop On Trial” Public Debate http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/2012/06/hip-hop-on-trial-public-debate/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=hip-hop-on-trial-public-debate http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/2012/06/hip-hop-on-trial-public-debate/#comments Tue, 26 Jun 2012 17:05:34 +0000 http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/?p=1054

For all you intellectual Hip Hop heads, there’s a huge global public debate going down in London today. But its also going to be using Google+ Hangouts and streamed live on Youtube. Sounds a bit gimmicky and marketing-ish but when you check the list of participants you can’t really go wrong: ?uestlove, Q-tip, Krs-One, Dream Hampton, P.J. O’Rourke, an advisor to the UK Prime Minister on youth & crime, and a bunch of others. Oh yea, Jesse Jackson, of course he’s involved too. I’m just wondering where Davey D is and why he’s not involved?

Monday Maxim – Jimmy Hats http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/2012/05/monday-maxim-jimmy-hat/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=monday-maxim-jimmy-hat http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/2012/05/monday-maxim-jimmy-hat/#comments Tue, 29 May 2012 13:20:04 +0000 http://commonfolkcollective.com/blog/?p=899 Jimmy Hats are now in style
Cos you can't trust a big butt and a smile
Some are dry and some lubricated
Many companies make and made it
So all you Super-Hoes, wear your hat
Cos drippin' Jimmies is straight up wack
Keep in mind about Jimbrowski

“Jimmy Hats” by KRS-ONE of BDP

The Magic Johnson AIDS announcement was huge when I was in high school. In fact I had a t-shirt that said “Protect your Johnson, no matter how magic you think it is – Condoms, Monogamy, Abstinence.” So you should remember you can’t trust a big butt and a smile, you need to trust in your jimmy hat.
