Reggae: Perfect (Giddimani) – Hold On Buju…
Buju Banton is locked up for facilitating a cocaine deal. Perfect Giddimani comes forward with a track that’s saying, “Hold On Buju”. Check it:
The whole case seemed super shady, and many believe that Buju is innocent. Buju had just released one his most Rasta-centric/conscious albums to date, while allegedly being involved with a large cocaine deal. Which, unknown to Buju, was being hosted by undercover DEA agents. Seems unlikely that Buju would be involved with any of it, but he was found guilty and made an example out of, with a 10 year sentence. About a month after Buju’s sentencing, I read a story about a mother who drowned her baby in a toilet and received 5 years. Whether or not Buju is truely guilty, this is another example of how ridiculous the drug war is and how jacked up our priorities are. 10 years for introducing a drug buyer to a drug seller versus 5 years for drowning your own child in a toilet. WTF?
3D Projection: LG Optimus Hyper Facade in Berlin…
If you live in a big city (in Europe), you’ve probably had the opportunity to check one of these ‘Hyper Facades’ out. For the rest of us, there’s the YouTube version. The good stuff starts at about 30 seconds in:
Yes, it is just another big budget advertising gimmick, but at least it’s a visual treat. Not like a billboard that sits for weeks on end, looking shitty until some brave graffiti artists puts something worthwhile on it.
