Two Arrested In Barack Obama Assassination Plot


DEEP..

Law enforcement agents have announced that they have stopped an assassination plot that would have shot and decapitated more than 100 black people and Senator Barack Obama. The plan, set up by two Neo-Nazi Skinheads, was stopped by ATF agents and the report was released today by the US District Court in Jackson, Tennessee.

According to the reports, the plan was to rob a gun store and target a mostly African American high school to go on a killing spree. The two men charged with the crime did not name the school they had in mind.

The special agent in charge of ATF's Nashville Field Office is Jim Cavanaugh. he spoke to the AP and noted that the plan was to shoot 88 black people and behead another 14. According to Cavanaugh, the numbers 88 and 14 were used specifically because they are symbolic numbers in the white supremacist community.

The two also planned on following that up by going on another killing spree around the nation, ending with their final target, Senator Obama. Legal documents revealed they "planned to drive their vehicle as fast as they could toward Obama shooting at him from the windows."

"Both individuals stated they would dress in all white tuxedos and wear top hats during the assassination attempt. Both individuals further stated they knew they would and were willing to die during this attempt."

Cavanaugh also spoke on their intentions.

"They said that would be their last, final act — that they would attempt to kill Senator Obama. They didn't believe they would be able to do it, but that they would get killed trying."

"They seemed determined to do it. Even if they were just to try it, it would be a trail of tears around the south."

Senator Obama's spokesperson had no immediate comment on the matter at the time this story ran.

The names of both men were also revealed. Daniel Cowart, a 20 year old from Bells, Tennessee, and Paul Schlesselman, an 18 year old from Helena-West Helena, Arkansas, are both being held without bond, according to reports. A sawed-off shotgun, a rifle and three pistols were confiscated by authorities.

Sheriff Troy Klyce from Crockett County also spoke on the matter.

"Once we arrested the defendants and suspected they had violated federal law, we immediately contacted federal authorities," he noted.

Currently, the men are charged with conspiring to steal firearms from a federally licensed gun dealer, possession of an unregistered firearm, and threatening the life of a candidate for president. They are scheduled for a bond hearing this Thursday in Memphis.

Although Senator Obama has not spoken on the matter, he was back on the campaign trail this week. Today, he issued what his campaign billed as his "closing statement" as they make a final push toward the November 4 elections.

"We cannot let up for one day, one minute, or one second in this last week. Not now. Don't think for a minute that power concedes. We have a lot of work to do. We have to work like our future depends on it in this last week, because it does depend on it this week."

BRAND NEW KANYE- HEARTLESS (UNMASTERED)


NEW KANYE...LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK.......HERE

PROPS TO ESKAY!!

KANYE'S LISTENING PARTY


So Kanye premiered his brand new album 808's and Heartbreak in LA yesterday, and the good people from Fader mag passed down...Im looking forward to this album as much as anyone,but somethings telling me im gonna be disappointed....Lets face it Love lockdown aint really saying it... It's not terrible, and it's good for daytime radio but thats about it....Lets just hope the hype aint got to kanyes head...What you think....another classic or or a disappointment?????





Last night, Kanye West publicly debuted his new album, 808s & Heartbreak, at the Ace Gallery in Los Angeles via a collaboration with Italian artist Vanessa Beecroft. After waiting in a loading area with an open bar and a DJ, we walked up a driveway illuminated by florescent lights to a darkened room where approximately forty nude women, most of them wearing face-obscuring masks seemingly made of faux lamb's wool, stood in the middle—black girls in the front, white girls in the back. Then the entire album played without introduction or explanation. The women were backlit by glowing lights—mostly red and purple, sometimes strobing, often pulsing and sporadically illuminating. When "Love Lockdown" played three songs in, some of the models started sitting down on the floor, others going so far as to fully recline by the end of the album. Mos Def sat down front-and-center, Michael Rapaport talked excitedly to the security guards, Will.i.am watched from one end of the U the audience formed around the women, Rick Ross watched from the other end (even singing along to some songs after an apparent even sneakier sneak preview). As for album: yes, it's almost entirely sung by West, aside from one verse by Young Jeezy on "Amazing" and a duet with Lil Wayne; yes, it is sung almost entirely through Auto-Tune; yes, some people are not going to be sure what to make of it, but we applaud West's decision to step off a creative ledge wearing a jetpack that no one else is sure will actually work.

Considering the conditions 808s & Heartbreak was played under (we're referring to the vast concrete room, not the presence of forty naked women), we don't feel right giving a full appraisal, but we are definitely eager to hear it again. On this blog we've compared West's recent productions to ARE Weapons, but maybe an even more apt reference is Adult. or Thom Yorke solo, with the dispassionate electro beats playing against the plainspoken ache of the vocals. Or maybe he's creating a genre of his own. Call it Kanyeclash. Once the album ended with "Coldest Winter"—the one song on the album about his mother, the rest of this breakup album is about "someone else"—West appeared with a microphone. After eventually silencing the chatty room, he introduced Beecroft, who revealed that the piece was conceptualized and executed in one week, which is one third of the time it took West to record the entire album. Then West delivered a monologue about how this album is about the freedom to do what you want to do and that he used Auto-Tune because it is the most fun thing ever. Then he said 808s & Heartbreak was about emotional nakedness. Then he said he'll have another album out next June. Then the DJ played "Good Life" and we went to get our car from the valet parking before the line got out of hand.

J-ROCC (BEAT JUNKIES) LIVE ON PIRATE RADIO (ITCH FM) DJMK & A-CYDE- JAN1ST 2002...PART 2..


SO here it is...PART 2 for everyone who was hitting me up. Part 2 is shorter than part 1 as the mix was an hour long. Even when i listen to this now,im still amazed at how tight J-Rocc is on the tables.

For those who dont know...me and my good friend A-cyde used to a pirate radio show every friday called "The show wit no name" on London ITCH FM,which ran for 7 years (2000-2007) and was londons only 24-7 hip hop station. On New Years day of 2001 J-Rocc from the world fmous Beat Junkies Passed thru and tore it down.

At that time we were broadcasting out of a council flat between Cali road and Camden. The flat itself was on the 12th floor and was a palace compared to some of the other spots we broadcasted from.Props to the management of Itch tho, they always handled there business propaly.

ENJOY THE MIX AND SHOUT ME BACK...

BACK ON ROAD...............I'LL BE GONE TIL NOVEMBER










So yesterday being saturday was the official start of the UK Slime & Reason tour.
We got to the venue for sound check at about 4pm....most people think touring is glamours but i can assure it isnt. You have to do the most amount of waiting around, but hey i aint complaining.

So oxford was the 1st date of the tour,and the venue was the Oxford carling accademy. We never actually played Oxford before and didnt know what to expect,but it was a perfect 1st show. The show was sold out with 1000 people and the energy of the crowd was intense.

After the encore we were on stage for a about an hour and a half. Its funny because when we first started doing shows Rodney only had 1 record out which was "Next type of motion" now we got about 6 albums to choose from which is kool.

I got crazy footage of last night....gonna upload it when i can find my cable!!! In the mean time heres some pix...

TONIGHT IS NORWICH @ THE WATERFRONT!!!
