Today's rock

           Blur - 13
William Orbit is brought in on this Blur's release, which sculpts blissful dance rock from its squawky space jams. The best results are in the vein of "Low"-era Bowie.

           Bounty Killer - 5th Element

311 - Soundsystem    311 take their top-down sound to new heights with Soundsystem. Mixing it up with hip-hop, rock, funk, and reggae, while keeping the guitar riffs crisp and tight, the band's melodic muscle is more cut than ever.

          James Baldwin - 1 Day When I Was Lost: A Scenario Based on Alex Haley's 'the Autobiography of Malcom X'

"When I'm born I'm Black, when I grow up I'm Black, when I'm in the cold I'm Black, when I'm in the sun I'm Black, when I'm sick I'm Black, when I die I'm Black. And you... When you're born you're Pink, when you grow up you're White, when you're in the cold you're Blue, when you're in the sun Red, when you're sick you're Green, when you die you're Purple. And you dare to call ME a coloured....".

"I don't know when Armageddon is supposed to be. But I know that the time is near when the white man will be finished. The signs are all around us."

Love is all we need. Love is life. Malcolm X's message was bold, powerful, and worth reading about. His life was torn by pain, healed by faith, and finally ended by the bullets from a black brother's gun.
