[News] Rhymefest May Challenge the Results in his City Alderman Election Campaign
“A vote challenge is looming in the city’s 20th Ward race. Aldermanic candidate Che ”Rhymefest” Smith is alleging massive vote fraud in the race.
With 98 percent of precincts reporting, Ald. Willie Cochran had 53 percent of the votes to Smith’s 46 percent.
Smith and his attorneys met with election officials Tuesday night, questioning them about the results.
“We want to ensure that it’s fair and that every vote is counted, and that people who didn’t live in the ward of vacant lots weren’t people who were voting. We want to make sure that the 20th Ward voices are heard,” Smith said.
“This election is not final tonight, and that’s the truth,” said Fred Bates, Smith’s attorney. “I don’t know whether Alderman Cochran has declared victory or not, but we make no concessions.”
“We concede nothing,” Smith said.”

[MP3] Mara Hruby – From Her Eyes
If this ain’t some perfect Sunday afternoon listening, I don’t know what is. Hit the jump for the background on this album. Can I just also add: I like the cut of homegirl’s jib. Must be that Bohemian Bay Area vibe she’s got going on….

[MP3] DJ Mister Cee’s ‘Adversity Mix’ on the Hot 97 Old School at Noon Show (4.4.11)
I think I said as much as I wanna say on Mister Cee’s situation on twitter last night. Combat Jack and Dallas Penn also got it about right on their radio show too. Time will tell whether Cee will address the situation head on himself but in the meantime, many think he spoke on it indirectly via the 1’s and 2’s on his ‘Old School at Noon’ throwback hip-hop mixshow on Hot 97 last Monday. Check it out and tell me if you agree:
