Hip Hop Speaks Out on the Sean Bell Case.... 

Upcoming NY MC Donny Goines on Semtex TV:



Another new MC featured previously on the site, Soulbrotha on this travesty: "Unforgotten" (This Can't be Life pt. II) " [zshare stream/download mp3 link]

Mickey Factz - "I'm Sean (50 Shots)" [zshare stream/download mp3 link] - this has been posted on the site before but had to go in again obviously. Mickey on the track:

"As some of you may or may not know, Sean Bell of Queens, Ny was murdered senselessly by 3 undercover police officers. Today the case that was supposed to send these cops to jail were acquitted on ALL charges. So basically, the justice system is not labeling discharging 50 shots as a crime, but as a procedure. Which means that every minority walking the streets of America is liable to get pummeled by a barrage of bullets. Me being an artist, I wrote this song in January 2007 and it is clearly as relevant as it was then as it is now. I ask people to listen to the song and pass it along as a testament to the death of Sean Bell. May he rest in peace and condolences go out to his family and friends."

More as they surface....
