Interviews/Behind The Scenes With Lupe Fiasco, Erykah Badu, Clipse, Kid Koala +More
Nothing especially newsworthy, but I found these recently uploaded videos interesting nonetheless...
Erykah Badu chats with journalists in the UK after her show last month:
About halfway through, she admits to not getting involved in politics because she doesn't really understand how the system works. She goes on to explain (in her own words) that if the rebublicans supply the voting machines then we're bound to get a republican president, so there isn't much power to the people...
David Banner, on the other hand, is very interested in U.S. politics. Check out his video, "David Banner for President":
Kardinal Offishall gives us a behind-the-scenes look at his video shoot with Clipse:
The official video for "Set It Off" ft. Clipse will premiere on July 22.
Turntable maestro Kid Koala takes XLR8R tv on a tour of his hometown, Montreal, Quebec:
And, a brand new interview with Lupe Fiasco by UK's RWD Magazine:
The US rapper tells how where he got the name Lupe Fiasco, signing She & Him, and talks about life after hip hop.

these were great, like seeing behind the scene footage like this
i'm so glad you liked 'em! i hesitated for a sec before posting them, but i had to share coz a few of these really got me thinking.
i don't know why, but i was especially tripped out that Erykah admitted to a UK audience that she doesn't understand US politics. it wouldn't be that surprising in a private conversation. but as a role model to the youth, i guess i expected she would keep it hush hush..
I appreciate her honesty, better than someone just speaking the latest headlines in order to sound like they know what is going on.
True enough, Rawk. it is better than trying to fake wisdom...
