For all those who wondered about black people ( and others) in France (in the 80ies) reacting to "hostility", here is something you may like....

Black Dragon

For G Funk fiends only, let's get a glance at what happened Tuesday evening, July 3rd at Glaz'Art (short version, the longer one will be featured at http://www.myspace.com/unknownsauldier ). So it was the G Funk day in Paris Hip Hop fest 2007, with DJ Obsek, DJ Gone, DJ Smurf ( couldn't recognise who was who :-) ), breakdancers ( Franqey & Stiga..and others) , in fact pop lockers, a small BBQ party, there also was a lowrider car outside, a small Crip Walk contest and a G funk gig at the end ( around midnight). Mostly people from Paris and suburbs were there, others came from Metz and Lyon ( some hot spots for French G Funk ?)to see 50/50 ( the band featuring JL Tismé and Aelpeacha (and also SOB playing keyboards and talkbox, if you don't know Zapp you won't understand). Very good show ( although there were some lads, I would say "useless" on stage, I mean there were from the audience, not rappers or musicians or even members of CSRD or TSN...) and an unexpected guest, Stomy Bugsy ( from Ministere Amer fame) who played 3 tracks, " Sarcelles", "Sois Hardcore" and " Sacrifice de Poulets" ( there was also Driver, Hamed Daye). Papillon, people from 2 Moines and Les Sales Blancs ( Le Foula merde, Tombokarnage especially, all in black clothes, and leather gloves for LeFouLM) also went onstage for some tracks, problem is (for me) you cannot trade "West Coast" or " G Funk" words for " bandana music"..Anyway ( no female dancers for 50/50 this time) here is the tracklist for the main act, or what I think is the tracklist, " Merci pour nos vies", "Tiens moi au chaud", "Assekavekunstyleobsen", also Aelpeacha solo spot for " 1x2x3x", "Le Soleil Brille" ( from the new album "Val de Marne Rider 2007") with Papillon and Topaz, "Ya pas que la chatte"( from CSRD dayz ?)with JLT and others, JL spot was for " J'suis F" and you also got ( from his album "Rap de Chambre")" Vieux Mais Bon (funky remix)". Of course all this in no particular order...

As would The Source say...now what?!? Just read below...

Beaucoup de jeunes qui avaient retrouvé confiance en la justice grâce aux non-condamnations de NTM, Sniper, Monsieur R et bien d'autres rappeurs, s'interrogent de nouveau sur la réalité de l'indépendance de la justice", s'insurge Dominique Tricaut, l'avocat d'Hamé, l'un des rappeurs de La Rumeur. La Cour de cassation vient en effet de casser, mercredi 11 juillet, la relaxe prononcée en faveur de Mohamed Bourokba, dit Hamé. Poursuivi par le ministère de l'intérieur depuis 2004 à cette époque Nicolas Sarkozy siége place Beauvau pour "diffamations publiques envers la police nationale", Hamé sera de nouveau jugé par la cour d'appel de Versailles. Quand ? "Dans un ou deux ans", s'exaspère l'avocat du rappeur.
