Alicia "Sour Note" Keyes....

In the recent edition of "Blender" magazine, the R&B singer Alicia Keyes drops a couple of pearls of wisdom....

The first thing is that Gangsta Rap music was NOT created by Hip-Hop artists. It was created by the government in an effort to trick blacks into joining gangs and killing each other!

Her other nugget, that the east coast/west coast war that resulted in the deaths of Biggie Smalls and Tupac was created by the media and government. Why? Because they wanted to stop two great black leaders.

Don't worry though, she's read alot of books about the Blank Panthers, and Huey Newton, and she plans to use her position as singer/artist to re-start the radical black movement, only this time, she's going world wide.

I wonder how many of her "people" in other parts of the world, like Somalia, Sudan, Darfur...will be able to pay $100 per seat to come see hear preach?
