I can’t understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I’m frightened of the old ones.

Banksy Paints Over A 25 Yr Old Historical Piece
A little background first….Robbo was one of the graf pioneers in London in the mid 80′s. Ok, now on with the story. Banksy threw up a piece on Xmas day that incorporates/”paints over” a historical piece that was threw up by Robbo in 1985. Can you say beef? If you want more background as to who/what/when/where and why, check it out here.

FreshIndie: KnowJuander – Mom’s Street Canvas
I said it before and I’ll say it again, good hip hop still exists. I don’t know too much about this kid and his whereabouts but I came across him while digging through bandcamp. His verses paint realistic pictures a la Nas and he also produces all of his own beats. Hopefully knowjuander will continue to deliver quality music as heard on this track. I felt the hook could’ve been stronger but at the same time it doesn’t take away from the song whatsoever.
