Through The Wire (A Kanye West Mega Mashup Master Mix)
JUSTENVISION
Yee so here it is! 25 minutes of the egocentric asshole we love to hate! A toast to the douchebags, anyone? This mix encompasses tracks from all 5 of his albums and couple of his features. Hope you guys dig the mixture of styles that has progressed throughout his catalogue. Download link is below. I decided to section out parts of the mix so you can skip to your favorite mashups or whatever. Oh, and I made the cover art too.

We Can Do It Now (feat. Common & Jennifer Hudson)
Lupe Fiasco
This is a track that didn’t make the cut for Lupe Fiasco’s Lasers. That entire album is fire, and I think this song definitely could have been included—but people were dying to hear some Lupe, so he appealed to his fans and gave us “We Can Do It Now.” The beat follows the similar structure of the songs from Lasers; it samples some guitars, and it is just as epic as the album’s tracks. Features from John Legend and Jennifer Hudson add some great diversity to the song. Give it a listen, and buy Lupe Fiasco’s Lasers.

The Television Will Not Be Revolutionized.
Idiot boxes of the world unite! To fight off the effects of intelligence, replace smart quotes with fart jokes, substitute sense with scenes from Martin, let the baby’s bathe in that glow and learn all manner of things they don’t really need to know!
The Television Will Not Be Revolutionized!
Channel the content of some rambling nonsense deep into the annals of yo’ subconscious, deprogram and depress chasing some televised success, be them, that, they and those be everything but in control,
The Television Will Not Be Revolutionized!
Small claims Court drama, teenage baby mamas, Osama watching Osama, Celebrity Endorsed indoor saunas, the perfectly cooked piraña and other cannonfodder for you to ponder, all at the speed of imitations of life while the smoke of war gets inhaled thru the peace pipes, be still my beating heart and scare my brain from thinking thoughts as i sit intoxicated by the delights, sarcasm and 3 strikes thrown by my favorite pitcher in a sound surrounded, 3 dimensional, high death, full color mixture, wholly unsocializing and completely uncensored,
The Television Will Not Be Revolutionized!
By this one-eyed monster most of the world was raised, and by this hero most of the world was saved, and to this master most of the world is slaves, it factors your fears with actors and cheers from a live studio audience pushing you to engage in a heroic act of thoughtlessness for the grand prize of a little bread, fleeting fame in the circus and every thought in yo head,
The Television Will Not Be Revolutionized!
“Ain’t no changing me” said my flat screen TV, No More Che’s to the rescue, or Black Panthers to correct you, just coaxial cables and satellite signals to connect you to a world that doesn’t really look like it does on TV, where everything is much shorter, fatter, uglier and in disorder, where u have to do it now because there are no digital recorders where if the present gets boring you can just fast forward,
The Television Will Not Be Revolutionized!
So there will be no revolution, or paradoxically ironic televised public execution of the entire worldwide televising institution, there wont even be a celebritized, televised trial of old baby blue, cuz you see my dear friends the television will not be revolutionized but what about the revolution that should taking place inside………………….of you?

Theme: “New Media Revolutionizing Africa”
What is unique about this event ?
Africa Gathering has joined the Guardian Global Development Site to bring you a unique conference aimed at helping us share and discuss ideas for positive change around the world.
“Organizations (entrepreneurs) innovate because they are discontent with the status quo and feel compelled to find a new way forward. They innovate because they see something is missing in the world and feel compelled to create that thing. Innovative organizations do not need a two-week retreat at a spa, or a high-paid consultant, or a big carrot or stick from a national funder, to encourage or enable them to innovate. Providing innovation-inducing ‘seed money’ to risk-averse institutions seems like a waste of precious grant dollars that might be better directed (in the form of multiyear general program support) to ‘naturally innovative’ organizations (if innovation is the end goal).

Can one pursue innovation? Or is it a side-effect of … any number of things: having one’s organziational eyes wide open to a changing environment; having strong values but flexible practices; having vision and creativity; having the courage to see the truth and act; continually seeking to create greater value for your constituencies and develop new sustainable resource streams … for instance?” —
