Guns and Polls

May 20, 2008 – 10:56 am

Today I stumbled upon, to my great surprise, the Roots covering Hendrix’s Machine Gun.

I gotta give props to the Roots. They are still holding it down as musical artists in a generation of ring-tone marketeers. Props also to their label for allowing them the creative freedom to retain their own license. God knows theres enough so-called rappers that sell out now a days.

For anyone looking for Jimi’s original (the Isle of Wight version), someone posted it, although they shouldn’t have because the DVD is freakin amazing.

And to those 2 of you who voted for New Orleans to win it all, did you really think so?!
