On a positive note, KRS One & DJ Premier’s “Criminal Minded ’08 (Smirnoff Signature Mix)” video is now available exclusively on SmirnoffSignatureMixSeries.com
LA vs WAR highlights the travesty of a senseless war now going into its 6th year, giving LA artists a platform to exercise their freedom of speech. Hundreds of artists 2 weeks ago 4/10-4/13 represented the diverse communities united in delivering a universal message of peace and understanding, and offering resistance and opposition to the US government’s war policies.
