Best Website Ever?

Kim Jong Il looking at Corn.
*
Okay, maybe it's not the best website ever. But it made me laugh out loud.
*
Visit Kim Jong Il Looking at Things now for more timeless propaganda classics such as 'Kim looking at pigs' and 'Kim looking at a radish'. Genius.


Jay Electronica & JFK - The Announcement (Audio)

This is great. If he can keep up this intelligent, left-field approach to hip hop despite signing to the Roc Nation behemoth (home of Jay-Z, Willow Smith, Rihanna etc) then he will offer something genuinely different and meaningful in a genre devoid of substance at the moment (with a few exceptions.)

Obama - Hopes Fading Fast T-Shirt

Wow. What a difference a year makes...
-
Just 12 months ago, Obama was going to change the world. Now, it appears, some of his shine is wearing off. The chaps at freshjive have created the t-shirt above, in response to the apparant lack of change ushered in by America's 'new' President during his first 52 weeks in the big job.
-
Personally, I think the criticism of his tenure is a little harsh. His priority was to steady a sinking ship, and repair some of the damage that Georgie Bush Junior had done since 2001. He seems to be doing okay in that respect.
-
I'm sure much of the criticism is based on unrealistic hopes for immediate, wide-ranging change, and the rest is generated by conservatives who would rather have a President with his finger on the trigger, ready to smash down a few third world countries whose political/social/religious ideals differ from theirs.

"Kill at the whim of a hat"

The BBC have kindly compiled a short list of classic Bushisms as a 'thank-you' for 8 years of side-splitting-yet-frightening idiocy from the most powerful man in the universe.

And thank god...


I like this.
For those with low-res monitors, the word 'new' is a stylised outline of the mainland US.
You can buy one HERE for 22 'bucks' (plus international shipping).

Jay-Z - History mp3


I love that picture. Unfortunately, this track doesn't feature Bill on the hook.
*
The new song is called 'History', and it's said to be produced by Kanye West.
No prizes for guessing what it's about.

Marc Jacobs gets political

Marc Jacobs will be selling these at his Marc by Marc Jacobs stores worldwide in the lead-up to the US Presidential Election.
Let's hope he applies the same sentiment to his stance on body art.

CNN = At best stupid, at worst racist

Jesus. How could that ever be funny? Not even a satirical genius could pull that off.

Nas - Black President mp3 (inspired by Barack Obama)

A track from Nas, produced by DJ Green Lantern, inspired by Senator Obama. I see Barack has already got the hang of cheesy photo opportunities... maybe he's got a chance.
