You know me, big Foreign Exchange fan:) Their latest album Authenticity isn't as good as their previous one which saw mad replay on my Zune . (did i mention my lovely Zune died on me some months back! sob) There are some nice cuts(like this one) on it though. Really beautiful woman in the vid by the way, black women rock!:) Previously: The Foreign Exchange - House of Cards

Noam Chomsky interview with Radio Open Source

Image
In this interview Mr.Chomsky talks about the Tea Party movement, President Obama, the fallacy of war and “national interest,” the “free market” system, environmental destruction & nuclear arms being humanities greatest threat among a host of other topics. I can say that Noam is one of the few heroes I have on this planet. His words have just opened my eyes to how naïve I was to a lot of global issues. I love how he exposes a lot of the lies majority of people are brainwashed with by the powers-that-be. I wish he would talk about Africa more though, I would love to hear his thoughts on the destruction our continent has been put through. On a tangential topic I can't stand how Kenya doesn't have any serious public access radio station that deals with serious issues; its full of mostly garbage.   Listen: Noam Chomsky interview on Radio Open Source Radio Open Source
