Since its conception, hip hop has been a genre heavily influenced by music of the past and personal experiences of contemporary artists. French hip hop is no exception. Today’s artists have grown up with the rich history of French rap, ranging from NTM to IAM to MC Solaar. At the same time, the worldwide popularity of American hip hop artists such as Tupac, Notorious BIG, and 50 Cent have continued to shape the French rap scene. To the ignorant observer, stylistic choices and musical nods to their predecessors may make certain French artists look like they are merely “copying” their American counterparts.

The beauty of today’s French hip hop scene comes in the diverse origins of its rappers. The injection of personal culture into the hip hop genre allows for the emergence of new artists of various origins (Senegalese, Algerian, Comorian, etc) rapping about topics that could only arise from the context of contemporary France. Decades of immigration from former French colonies in sub-Saharan and North Africa has spawned this new generation of French rappers who reference Biggie and Pac in the same breath as l’Islam and l’Algerie. A perfect example is Rim-K’s line in “Partir loin,” in which he makes reference to both the revered reputation of California in the American rap game and the homeland of his ancestors, la Kabylie: “Moi, j’suis de Kabyliefornie.”

Cette video n’etait pas faite pour montrer que certains rappeurs “copient” d’autres, mais plutot pour montrer la richesse de l’influence multi-culturelle qui a forme le hip hop francais contemporain.

This segment profiles Shepard Fairey, a contemporary artist, graphic designer, and illustrator who emerged from the skateboarding scene. The Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, calls him one of today’s best known and most influential street artists.

He first became known for his “André the Giant Has a Posse” sticker campaign. His work became more widely known in 2008 for his Barack Obama “HOPE” poster. His work is included in the collections at The Smithsonian, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

Fairey became obsessed with art in 1984 at the age of 14. At that time he started to place his drawings on skateboards and T-shirts. In 1992, Fairey graduated from Rhode Island School of Design with a Bachelor of Arts in illustration. In addition to his successful graphic design career, Fairey also DJ’s at many clubs.
Fairey sits on the advisory board of Reaching to Embrace the Arts, a not-for-profit organization that provides art supplies to disadvantaged schools and students. Fairey created the “André the Giant Has a Posse” sticker campaign in 1989, while attending the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). This later evolved into the “Obey Giant” campaign, which has grown via an international network of collaborators replicating Fairey’s original designs. His “Obey” Campaign draws from the John Carpenter movie “They Live” which starred pro wrestler Roddy Piper, taking a number of its slogans, including the “Obey” slogan, as well as the “This is Your God” slogan. Fairey has also spun off the OBEY clothing line from the original sticker campaign.

After graduation, he founded a small printing business in Providence, RI called Alternate Graphics, specializing in t-shirt and sticker silkscreens, which afforded Fairey the ability to continue pursuing his own artwork. While residing in Providence in 1994, Fairey met American filmmaker Helen Stickler, who had also attended RISD and graduated with a film degree. The following spring, Stickler completed a short documentary film about Shepard and his work, titled “Andre the Giant has a Posse”. The film premiered in the 1995 New York Underground Film Festival, and went on to play at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival. It has been seen in more than 70 festivals and museums internationally.
Fairey was a founding partner of the design studio BLK/MRKT Inc. which specialised in guerilla marketing. Clients included Pepsi, Hasbro and Netscape (for whom Fairey designed the red dinosaur version of mozilla.org’s logo and mascot). His OBEY Giant line of clothing was sold at the upscale Nordstrom department store. In 2003 he founded the Studio Number One design agency with his wife Amanda Fairey. The agency produced the cover work for the Black Eyed Peas’s album Monkey Business and the poster for the film Walk the Line. Fairey has also designed the covers for The Smashing Pumpkins’ album Zeitgeist, Flogging Molly’s CD/DVD Whiskey on a Sunday, and the Led Zeppelin compilation Mothership and Anthrax’s The Greater Of Two Evils.

In 2005 Fairey collaborated with DJ Shadow on a box set, with t-shirts, stickers, prints, and a mix CD by Shadow. In 2006, Fairey contributed eight vinyl etchings to a limited-edition series of 12″ singles by alternative rock band Mission of Burma, and has also done work for the musical group Interpol.

Fairey was arrested on February 7, 2009, on his way to the premiere of his show at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, Massachusetts, on two outstanding warrants related to graffiti. He was charged with damage to property for having painted two Boston area locations with graffiti, a Boston Police Department spokesman said. Fairey created a series of posters supporting Barack Obama’s candidacy for President in 2008, including the iconic “HOPE” portrait.

Fairey created the portrait of Barack Obama that TIME Magazine used as the cover art for its 2008 Person of the Year issue. The portrait is also used for the cover of Esquire Magazine’s February 2009 issue. His influence, particularly with Obama’s presidential campaign, contributed to him being named a Person of the Year 2008 by GQ Magazine.

In January 2009, the ‘HOPE’ image was acquired by the US National Portrait Gallery, and became part of the permanent collection.

It was unveiled and put on display at the Gallery on January 17, 2009.

Nick OLothian produced the music, that was used, in this most enjoyable, and educational, video.

Jack Stand, the art critic, is the narrator.

Sumeria was the land, where the towns, that were built, by Nimrod, began to worship the twisted fish god, head of the nommo. You can see pictures of the priests, of that area, wearin their fish costumes, in the video, and also how the popes (perps) pope-hat is a part of that fish costume.

Tru Keesey Ministries is approved by God, as the nucleus, of the true new world order, to replace the old order.

Iraq, Serbia, 9-11 World Trade Center bombings. Kabbalistic Babylonian human sacrifice ritual directed by the Roman priesthood. Business ownerships and dominances were transferred from non-Babylonian to Babylonian factions.
Quoted from Unsolved Mysteries http://hellhorror.com/mysteries/dogon, accordin to Fair Use Law: a Babylonian historian named Berossus – a contemporary and apparently an acquaintance of Aristotle (fourth century BC)-
claims in his history, of which only fragments survive, that Babylonian civilization was found by alien amphibians, the chief of whom is called Oanned the Philistines knew him as Dogon.
The Greek grammarian Apollodorous (about 140 BC) had apparently read more of Berossus, for he criticizes another Greeek writer, Abydenus, for failing to mention that Oannes was only one of the “fish-people”;
he calls these aliens “Annedoti” (“repulsive ones”) and says they are “semi-demons” from the sea.Homer’s Sirens-mermaid like creatures who are all-knowing and who try to lure men away from their everyday responsibilities actually “Sirians”, amphibious goddesses
There are many other fish-bodied aliens in Greek mythology, including the Telchines of Rhodes, who were supposed to have come from the sea and have introduced men to various arts, including metal work. Significantly, they had dogs’ heads.

The prayer, in the Bible, says save us from the power of the dog. The Hebrew word for Sirius means black.

Mick Snutz Art Department is the producer of this fine informational video, that shows how the church of rome, exploiting the gullibility of the catholics, and their un-holy roman empire, were the baddies, from long ago.

The destruction of the protestant town, of Dresden, was done, after the war could have ended. The war was prolonged, in order to destroy that city.

Hollywood, and the film industry, have been controlled by the mafia, which is an agency ruled by the vatican. They have tried to poison our minds, for many years, now.

But freedom and justice are bein established, even as you read this. Rome will be soon destroyed, ja, it is in the Bibles prophecy.

The Latins, the Etruscans, and the romans are all featured, in this joyful video.
