Brazil troops and police raid Rio shantytown in clean-up drive | The Guardian:
I just hope they seriously care about this and it won’t be neglected after the World Cup and Olympics. I know that the traffickers have their evils, but you could still go to Rocinha, Vidigal, and other favelas for parties or whatever and not have problems. But who knows what’s going to happen now when the police take these communities. I feel more comfortable around gangsters with guns than around police with guns. By some estimates, Rocinha has 250,000 people. That’s like taking over an entire city in one pre-dawn raid…
Eles […] são um reflexo das UPPs. Sem o tráfico e sem fuzil, quem quis continuar no crime teve que usar pistola e roubar pedestres e carros. —O Dia, 11/23/11
[They are a reflection of the UPPs (police pacification units). Without traffic and without a rifle, those who wanted to continue in crime had to use a pistol and rob pedestrians and cars.]
Something that I’ve often thought about in regard to the “pacification” process of Rio’s favelas—is the lack of traffic going to drive up street crime? No-name traffickers don’t have to flee before the occupation, so you’re left with a bunch of low-level criminals without work. All this UPP stuff looks good on the surface because they’re pushing the traffic out the slums, but maybe they should spend more time addressing the poverty. People wouldn’t be turning to crime as much if there were things like a reasonable minimum wage.
Ludacris - Bada Boom
Do your research before you make a claim so bogus that it’s disrespecting pioneers in the game.

General Toussaint L’Ouverture, the military genius who lead the slave rebellion of Saint Domingue in 1791, leading the way for the independence of the first Black Nation in the Western Hemisphere.

I’d been waiting for Saigon’s LP since ‘05 and it was even better than I’d expected it to be, easily my favorite of the year, despite how good these others were.
Common - “Stay Schemin’ (remix)”
You ain’t wet nobody, n***a, you Canada dry
K’naan - Nothing to Lose (feat. Nas)
No, I don’t know pilots / N—-a, I know pirates
two of my favorite artists.
Yeah, man. I mean, I got a history that is a lot more – to put it mildly – directly impacted [by violence] than a lot of rappers. A lot of rappers that talk all that street talk can’t really hold a candle to the kind of experiences I’m talking about. And so, why then should I have been all these years kind of in the back, just watching it all unfold? And nobody really gives the kind of credit and due something like that deserves.

Dr. Dre - Fuck You (feat. Snoop Dogg & Devin the Dude)
Shit, I know it’s not right, but Dre’s first line is the truth. I want to be all anti-sexist all the time, but sometimes it is what it is. Life isn’t lived in a politically correct vaccuum. Nah mean?
