Was This Review Helpful? Yes No This Afro Beat / Hip Hop Album is gonna be blazin'
The new installment from the RED HOT organization is RED HOT + RIOT, a tribute album to the late afro beat inventor, Fela Kuti. On this compilation album (with net proceeds going towards aids awareness, action, and prevention charities) the music of Fela is "remixed" and redone with today's best in Neo-Soul and Hip Hop
I was able to hear a few tracks, both real tight! especially Shuffering + SHming featuring Dead Prez, Jorge Ben Jor, Talib Kewli, Bilal, and Positive Force, you gotta hear this track, ITS ONE OF THE MOST INNOVATIVE SONGS I"VE HEARD IN A WHILE!
Buy this album when it comes out!!

In this dazzling epic from Akira Kurosawa, a petty thief named Kagemusha (Tatsuya Nakadai) gets saved from a death sentence because he resembles the warlord Shingen Takeda (also Nakadai).

Because of Kagemusha's strong physical similarities to the warlord, he's a perfect choice for a "shadow warrior." However, the arrangement suddenly changes when Shingen gets fatally wounded while watching a battle. Adhering to Shingen's final wish, the warlord's men keep the death a secret, and Kagemusha struggles to transform himself from a criminal into a leader.
KAGEMUSHA marked a welcome return for the legendary director, who had not made a movie since 1974. ...

As the story unfolds, Sokurov's deeper purpose is revealed, resulting in a work that speaks profoundly about the corrosive nature of war. Opera star Galina Vishnevskaya is Alexandra. She hasn't ...
