The Moneypenny Life

It's nearing the end of 2008, I thought it was about time to spruce up the blog as plenty has changed, I now work in music publishing and love it...and yes, a little bit of my heart will always be in love with New York. Welcome to the new life.

Personally Speaking...

This is the last I will say on the subject as I don't wish to give David Cameron any more publicity from our cause than he's already taken...

Before he starts accusing hip hop of promoting or inciting violence he should take a good hard look at his own government who start wars, who actually has their hands on causing violence? Who effectively does promote violence?

Perhaps if Cameron was willing to sit down and look at the community, dare to scratch below the surface of what is really going on, the real problems and the real nitty gritty truth about the rise of gun and knife crime, maybe then we can talk and work out programs for the youth and work with the community instead of persecuting the people who express what is going on in their surroundings through music - which is their voice.

There are certain people who are in positions of great influence or visibilty who have a responsibilty to their communities who do nothing to help anyone except themselves. I won't go into that, or name names, I'll leave it to the artists who have a voice and feel passionately about it to say what they need to say.
