End of the Weak is the longest running, underground Hip Hop showcase in the game, but this past Sunday was especially momentous with the Blastmaster KRS-One rocking the sound set. Accompanied by some freestyles from Vice Verses and Big Zoo, the Teacha electrified the crowd, plus the MCs competing to appear on a track with him. Once KRS makes up his mind, EOW will announce a winner, in the meantime press play and watch what you missed.

Here’s a clip of KRS-One at SMT Studios’ Now or Never 2008 benefit discussing how reprehensible it is for the city not to take care of first responders and rescue workers who risked their health—many their lives—during the clean-up of the 9/11 attack. He also talks about how proud he was to be in Loose Change II, a very successful and controversial conspiramentary that offered alternative theories for the attacks on the World Trade Center. When asked if there’s a consensus in Hip Hop on what really happened, the Teacha said he won’t speak for everyone, but did offer an estimation, “I would say 80% of us believe that was some stupid twistedness, like however you put it ’9/11 was an inside job.’” He goes on and shouts out Jadakiss for outright accusing Bush of knocking down the towers. Also, if you have footage of KRS and are wondering if you need to get in touch with him to legally clear it for your videos, you don’t, he doesn’t mind being used for the promotion of the truth. |911Blogger|
