Oh shit. I’m back, kinda.
Anywho, Thurz hits us with an unreleased track titled “King Keep Marching.” If you haven’t heard his latest single, “Prayer,” then mosey on over to this link to get ahold of the new song. Personally, I love the whole campaign for Thurz’ upcoming solo album, L.A. Riot, which is inspired by Rodney King, the 1992 Los Angeles Riots and recent North Africa Uprisings. All of the viral videos, tracks and any other content that was delivered to my inbox has been interesting and well put together. I never got the chance to wheatpaste but once I’m feeling better, you better believe I’m gonna be hitting up some L.A. walls.
Check out the L.A. Riot Manifesto below and see if you riot for the same causes. Preview of the song and the download link are below.
THE L.A. RIOT MANIFESTO
I RIOT, because BET has failed every generation after 1999.
I Riot, because Top 40 Radio plays the same
electro/techno-based songs 10 times an hour.I Riot, because the artists that are forced upon the masses are hybrid clones with the same content in every song.
I Riot, because I haven’t felt the same love and attachment for an album since Redman’s Muddy Waters.
I Riot, for the freedom of music and art that has been
incarcerated
