Dear Debra - A Letter to BET - Jasiri X
Jasiri X's videos should really appeal to everyone who has ever complained about the lyrics and/or negative images in Hip-hop music.
Well now is your chance to finally do something about it. Play this hot video featuring Jasiri X's ill lyical skills, searing commentary about the meaning of peace and the audacity of giving out a "Peace Prize" in a world so violent. Turn it up and bob yo head, the beat is another banger from Pittsburgh's own legendary super producer Black Cza! Then forward this email to all your friends and tell them how incredible' it is!
Then Tweet it, share it on Facebook and Myspace, Go the full distance and text it also!
The more people that play it, the more people will like it and just maybe, we can start a trend towards intelligent, conscious Hip-hop that isn't corny or stiff.
How about we give it a try and really send it to your lists, like so many people regularly send out ignorant, woman exploiting, self hating, murder music.
Jasiri X, it's Hip-hop that won't eat your brain!

This is the battle that we have been fighting and losing for years.
People sellout and support artists with negative lyrical content in spite of the fact that they poison our children's hearts and minds.
They only draw large crowds because of the record labels sponsorship and propaganda machine, constant radio play and TV app… Continue
