The Stars at Noon
Here and there in this country there were telephones, but if one wanted to call Planet Earth, one put the call through at TELCOR, the small, timeless, dead center of Hell, where souls were being branded with the shapes of their hope … As soon as you enter you go deaf—there can be no voice to these cries … If you bring a camera, the film exposes itself on entering … The...

Animal Underworld - "Holy Music" →
I’ve heard a lot about Rollins’ upcoming TV show on National Geographic, but this episode rundown is by far the most interesting. Henry goes to a Pentecostal church where the sermon includes speaking in tongues, handling dangerous snakes and a three hour jam session. Right on

ZDLR OWS Poem
To express his solidarity with the Occupy movement, Zack de la Rocha wrote and released the following poem a few days ago. He said in a statement, “This poem is dedicated to the Occupy movement whose courage is changing the world. Stay Strong. We are winning.”
The beginning spills through city veins Into the arteries And under powers poison clouds We move like...

In the meantime, however, life goes on and the colonized subject draws on the terrifying myths that are so prolific in underdeveloped societies as inhibitions for his aggressiveness: malevolent spirits who emerge every time you put one foot wrong, leopard men, snake men, six-legged dogs, zombies, a whole never-ending gamut of animalcules or giants that encircle the colonized with a realm of...

Does Male Bonding Achieve Nirvana?
Male Bonding and EMA cover Nirvana for a release expected Jan. 1, 2012. The former takes on one of my favorite Nirvana songs, “Aneurysm,” while EMA (Erika M. Anderson) does “Endless, Nameless,” the hidden track following “Something in the Way” off Nevermind. Both are decent, but I’m digging “Aneurysm” more. Stream it below and check both out...

Today Is Nov. 8 →
NASA:
The asteroid safely will fly past our planet slightly closer than the moon’s orbit on Nov. 8. The last time a space rock this large came as close to Earth was in 1976, although astronomers did not know about the flyby at the time. The next known approach of an asteroid this size will be in 2028.
For a radar image of the asteroid, go here

The Good Fella Kendrick Lamar
First off, Kendrick can talk for three minutes to a stranger and make it feel intimate—that’s a talent. Not that he’s talking about anything too personal (asked about who he’s working with and wants to work with), but you get the sense that he is taking in all the information and actually thinking about his answers. It’s good and you see it more and more in this...

Drizzy No Like You
Same cover of The Source I used a few days ago, but this time what’s actually being referenced is from the magazine. Speaking with Kim Osorio, Drake expressed his distaste for social media outlets like this one. Here are some of his feelings on Tumblr:
I’m really scared for my generation, you know. The thing that scares me most is Tumblr. I hate what Tumblr has become. Because it like,...

Justin Bieber Spittin Like a Motherfucka
JB hit up Power 106 to spit a few bars. Now, the DJ at the beginning says that Bieber ‘asked’ for the “Otis” beat—whether that means the freestyle was ghostwritten or pre-written I don’t know. Either way, the kid deserves mad props for not trippin over his own words, and even more so if it’s really off the top. Watch the video

This is Not a Joke
Famous for his totally realistic 9-9-9 taxation plan, the brilliant Herman Cain has announced his strategy to renew the face of America abroad.
The presidential hopeful analogized America’s “foreign foggy policy” to a near-bankrupt Godfather’s Pizza circa 1996, when he joined the drowning company as CEO. In a speech delivered yesterday at the National Press Club, Cain...
