[News] The Arab League Calls for a No-Fly Zone Over Libya
Analysis:
“The Arab League’s decision lays the groundwork for foreign powers to consider a no-fly zone over Libya. The league also reportedly decided to recognize a rebel council as the representative of the Libyan people.
The decision, announced on Egyptian state television, ends weeks of debate among Arab nations, overcoming widespread resistance to the idea of foreign intervention in an Arab member state.
Al Jazeera’s James Bays, reporting from the capital Cairo, puts the decision into perspective.”

[MP3] Game feat. Lil Wayne – RED Nation
Apparently this is the first official street single off Game‘s The R.E.D. Album (hmm, where have I heard that before?!). And should I feel conflicted about supporting what is essentially an homage to the Blood gang lifestyle though?? On a lighter note, what is that sample? Sounds like some pop-techno track that was poppin’ from a few years back?? [update: thanks to readers, Dracz and Joe for pointing out that it’s Zombie Nation‘s “Kernkraft 400”]

I feel like Jean‘s coming for the neck of naysayers like me who you used to call her wack. I’m happy to have been proven wrong as she’s dropped a lot of heat over the past couple years. It’s all subjective anyway so you Jean Grae Stans, don’t get all aggy!
