Comedy: ‘Curse of Chucky’ Prank Scares Brazilian Bus-Stop Patrons (Video)
December 23, 2013
Ahahaaaaaa! Down in Brazil, Chucky got ’em stankin’ up their britches, as my folks might say. Translation: Pranksters dressed an actor up as famed cult horror character/doll ‘Chucky’ and had him scaring the sh!t out of hapless victims waiting at a bus stop in Brazil.
A film crew set Chucky up in a hideaway behind a bus stop wall ad. Then they taped several patrons giving real life reactions to the fake mini-monster’s attack. Hilarious! Watch.
(And you would’ve run, too. Don’t front!)

Sean Price – “Kurt Rambis”
December 23, 2013
NBA’er Kurt Rambis was something to deal with back in the day… now holding a clipboard on the bench as an assistant, not even the head coach. That’s okay. Then and now, you must respect the work out of spotlight. It’s a grind that’s gotta be done, right Sean P?
“Kurt Rambis. I got to do the dirty work!” – Sean Price
Look… and don’t ask about what album P has coming, or what project this “Kurt Rambis” jawn is going to be on. We don’t know. Not sure P knows.
4-IZE – “How’d That Work Out” (Prod. By 9th Wonder) [Video]
December 23, 2013
The homie 4-ize’s song ‘How’d That Work Out’ produced by 9th Wonder is one of my personal favorites from the Chicago emcee because of it’s brutal honesty & the lyrically comedic way the story is told. We’ve been running the song for some time now on the Beatz & Lyrics Show with Jayforce. I’m glad he allowed us to debut the song to world first on my radio show here in Atlanta.
“4-IZE teams up with Grammy award-winning producer 9th Wonder once again to make a really good ass sandwich. “How’d That Work Out” is the lyrical documentary of the life & times of 4-IZE’s early days in Atlanta. From his relationship with Ludacris & origins with DTP; to the ups & downs of the industry, this Hip Hop time capsule unlocks over a decade of archived memories in a detailed account of his years within the ATL music scene.”

Rakim – “Madiba” (Tribute To Nelson Mandela)
December 20, 2013
Yoooo! Respect to the G.O.D.M.C. for putting this down with respect for “Madiba” – in honor of the late human rights icon Nelson Mandela. Plenty of coverage and tributes for Mandela. But none like this Rakim joint telling the man’s “Long Road to Freedom” story (gotta check that Idris Elba movie out, too, by the way). Take a listen.

Black & Latino Students In The U.S. Can Attend Medical School In Cuba For Free (Video)
December 20, 2013
Doctors come out of med school with huge debt to repay. Probably why we “understand” why a trip to the doctor can cost so much in the United States. But wouldn’t it be a boon to making healthcare affordable if doctors could graduate debt-free? Well… somebody’s already doing that… Cuba!
All too often though, we want to vilify those (like Cuba) we are told to treat as the enemy. Remember the uproar over Bey and Jigga’s trip to Cuba (y’all gone learn today…wrote a song ’bout it)? You’dve thought it was the missile crisis all over again. But fortunately, to balance bad-mouthing of some, we have folks who declare that there are at least some things we can appreciate about the neighbor 90 miles south of South Florida (USA). For instance, check out what the Black Left Unity blog hipped us to about another bright spot of Cuba’s medical outreach.
Currently there are two Detroit (Michigan, USA) students attending LASM on a full scholarship. Contact us at IFCO
418 W 145 Street
Harlem, NY 10031

And if you don’t know, now you know. So, next time somebody spouts that ‘Communist Cuba the bad guys’ stuff … You hit ’em with the link to this story. Oh, and tell them the US is actually doing some ‘bad medicine’ down that way. Remember the Gitmo force-feeding? But we’ll keep this peace positive. Thanks for the good medicine, Cuba.
Check out more video after the jump, including a great piece from PBS Newshour.
