24 hours w/ Damon Dash as he runs the Rocafella empire (2004) (Part 1)

This right here proves once and for all who really ran and was the brains behind The Roc (hint: it wasn't Jay-Z). This show follows Dame around for 24 hours as he does interviews with New York Daily, argues on the phone with execs so his Rocafella producers don't get jerked, meets with Maxim Magazine, works out at the gym, makes the rounds at Rocawear, spends time with his kids, has his daily staff meeting and much more. This is what a real CEO does and a must see for anybody interested in business or just wanting motivation.

This is a perfect companion piece to Choke No Joke's "Last Days Of The Roc" because this was actually filmed a day or two before the infamous Dame vs. Def Jam Black Album meeting where Dame found out Def Jam & Jay-Z were cutting him out of everything

10/24 Midnite- Vaughn Benjamin Interview

Le CEPAPA rencontre MIDNITE - Interview de Vaughn Benjamin

Vaughn Benjamin discute avec le directeur du CEPAPA lors du passage de Midnite au Brésil au mois d'Octobre 2010. Cette interview a été enregistrée à l'aide d'un ordinateur portable, d'où la qualité relativement mauvaise de l'image et du son.
Pas de HD donc, si ce n'est dans la substance de la discussion autour de Rastafari, les blancs, les noirs, les formes, l'éducation, l'Afrique, l'ancestralité, le rapatriement, la tradition orale, les étoiles, l'Islam, l'Éthiopie...

Que celui qui a des oreilles pour entendre entende !

2 Pac - Final 24: His Final Hours

Using archival footage, dramatic reenactments and interviews with his family and friends, the final moments of Tupac Shakur's life are documented.

This compelling documentary series unlocks the hidden secrets, psychological flaws and events that result in the tragic deaths of famed notorious and the iconic. Every episode maps out the final 24 hours of a different famous person's life. The series weaves the star's back-story with events from their last day, which lays bare the threads of fate that led inextricably from childhood to the moment of death. These are no ordinary biographies. They're psychological detective stories attempting to uncover the mystery of why the celebrity died. September 6, 1996: The most successful hip-hop artist of all time, Tupac Shakur has just finished shooting his latest video in Los Angeles. The ultimate gangster-rapper, Tupac says he will one day go out in a blaze of glory. In 24 hours, his prophecy will come true... Although reluctant about going to Las Vegas to play a gig, Tupac eventually relents, and enjoys some high stakes gambling before attending a heavyweight prizefight featuring his friend, Mike Tyson. Pumped up by Tyson's victory, Tupac is himself involved in a violent brawl, and heads back to his hotel to freshen up. When he finally arrives at the club for his own performance, a white Cadillac pulls up and a gunman fires a heavy round of bullets at the rapper's car. Mortally wounded with a punctured lung, Tupac dies six days later in hospital. He is only 25. Featuring archival footage, dramatic reenactments, and interviews with his family and friends, we document the final moments of Tupac Shakur's life.

Kwame Ture (formerly Stokely Carmichael) talks about Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Native Americans, the FBI and the CIA, and many other topics. He gave this lecture in 1992.

RZA Talks NEW 2012 Interview

RZA may be best known as a Grammy Award-winning music producer, director and member of the Wu-Tang Clan, but he acts, develops apps and headphones, too! I guess that makes me a total waste of space.

Malcolm X interview in Chicago: City Desk (March 17, 1963)

Malcolm X appears on a television in Chicago called "City Desk" on March 17, 1963. Interviewers are Chicago journalists Jim Hurlbut, Len O'Connor, Floyd Kalber, and Charles McCuen.

"My father didn't know his last name. My father got his last name from his grandfather and his grandfather got it from his grandfather who got it from the slavemaster. The real names of our people were destroyed during slavery. The last name of my forefathers was taken from them when they were brought to America and made slaves, and then the name of the slavemaster was given, which we refuse, we reject that name today and refuse it. I never acknowledge it whatsoever."

Sabi - Wild Heart [Official Music Video]

"Wild Heart" Lyrics:

I tried to control it
Tried to maintain it
Tried to contain it
But I failed terribly
And I don't know what to do

I tried to hold back
And accept the fact
We ain't perfect
And what we got goin' on
Might leave us both with bruises

Neither one of us
Wanted either one to say goodbye
But both of us keep hittin'
Keep on screamin' and we don't know why
We're in love

Damn (Damn)
This wild heart of mine
It's gonna get me in trouble (x2)

I'm out so I folded
Bad hand so I'm throwing it all in
It's no one to blame
Too young in the game
For this wild wind
Let's try to hold back
And accept the fact

We ain't perfect
'Cause I love yah
At least I think I do
But baby

Neither one of us
Wanted either one to say goodbye (Oh Noooooo)
But both of us keep hittin'
Keep on screamin' and we don't know why
We're in love
Damn (Damn)
This wild heart of mine
It's gonna get me in trouble (x2)

Look me in the eyes
And tell me with no lies
That you
Feel the same
Look me in the eyes
And tell me with no lies
That you can be a better man
But I don't think you could

Damn (Damn)
This wild heart of mine
It's gonna get me in trouble (x2)

Ohohooohohooh

Yohan Blake Beats Usain Bolt In 100m! 2012 Olympic trials.

Yohan Blake - 9.75

The Fastest Man in the World wasn't the fastest man in Jamaica.
That honour goes to Yohan Blake, who got out of the blocks fast and finished the 100-meter final in 9.75 seconds to upset world-record holder Usain Bolt by 0.11 seconds in the Jamaican Olympic trials.
A shocker? Well, that's for the world to decide. One thing for sure, however, is that the calculus for the London Olympics has changed dramatically.
Blake is the reigning world champion but that victory, last year in South Korea, came with an asterisk because Bolt didn't run that night after being disqualified for a false start. This was their first rematch, their first real race since then. Bolt was considered the favourite, not only because of his world record - 9.58 seconds - but because Blake, his training partner had never run below 9.84 in his life.

Well, now, he has.
The 9.75 seconds goes down as the best time this year and also breaks the four-year-old National Stadium record; both marks were 9.76 - both held by Bolt.
As much as the numbers, though, it was all that daylight between Blake and Bolt at the finish line that told this story. Blake, the man known as "The Beast," let out a primal scream when he crossed. Bolt just sort of pulled up - no "To the World" pose or anything else to celebrate.
Asafa Powell will join them at the Olympics, after finishing in 9.88. In the women's 100, defending Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce won in a Jamaican record 10.70 seconds, with Veronica Campbell-Brown in second and Kerron Stewart in third.
