<p><strong>Justice by Uniting in Creative Energy (J.U.i.C.E.)</strong>, a project of Community Partners, is a non-profit weekly hip hop arts program that seeks to develop youth leadership and technical skills, creative expression and self-confidence through the artistic elements of hip hop which include breakdancing, urban art, deejaying, emceeing/spoken word and music recording.</p>
<p>They teach visual arts workshops, paint large-scale and legal graffiti murals in the community, record and produce music, emcee, bboy/bgirl on a large hardwood floor to live DJs. They create unique opportunities for underserved young artists to showcase their work, network with peers and professionals and engage with their communities in a positive manner through the arts. The program is free for all age groups.</p>
<p><strong>THE VISION</strong><br />
To sustain a safe and permanent home for youth where the elements of hip-hop are used as a tool for social change, youth empowerment and art education.</p>
<p><strong>THE MISSION</strong><br />
To address the root causes of juvenile crime and of youths’ need for belonging by providing a safe center run by and for young people, focused on skill building in the arts of the hip-hop culture.</p>
<p>Starting in <em>March</em>, our new location will be @<br />

<p>In this special extended feature, hip hop legend KRS-One, who has also lectured at Harvard and Yale, discusses what the election of Barack Obama means for America and warns that once the emotion of the event is put aside, black people and the country in general may be hugely disappointed by the &#8220;change&#8221; that will be offered, in that it will be nothing more than a continuation of the same globalist policies which ravaged the Constitution under Bush.</p>
<p>&#8220;They put a black face on the New World Order, and now we&#8217;re all happy &#8211; KRS ain&#8217;t buying it.&#8221;</p>

<p>For everyone who has been into <strong>America&#8217;s Best Dance Crew</strong>, this crew has been a threat to lookout in the competetive hip hop dance world for a long minute. The <strong>Philippine Allstars</strong> was started in 2005 by 12 friends who came from different backgrounds, but wanted to collectively represent their country in the <strong>World Hip-Hop Championships</strong> held in the US.  In 2006, Allstars put the Philippines on the map of Hip-hop dance in becoming the first Asian country to win back-to-back World Gold titles in the <strong>International Hip-hop Open d’Ítalia</strong> in <strong>Turin, Italy</strong> and in the <strong>World Hip-Hop Dance Championships</strong> in <strong>Los Angeles, California</strong>. Now in 2008, they came back strong again and took Gold in the <strong>World Hip-Hop Dance Championships</strong> held in <strong>Las Vegas, Nevada</strong>.</p>
<p>Check out their website for the <strong>&#8220;His-Story&#8221;</strong> documentary movie, which is a progression of their struggle of the weeks before the World Hip-Hop Dance Championships until they take the title once again!!</p>

Friday February 27, 2009 &#8211; 8:00pm</p>
<p>{GOLDENVOICE EVENT}</p>

<p>Kool Keith comes in many forms and many incarnations, but his style is distinctly his own. Just as there&#8217;s no mistaking his smooth lyrical delivery and searing hip-hop prose with its underlying edgy beats, there&#8217;s no denying the incredible force of power that is Kool Keith. Whether as a founding member of the legendary Ultramagnetic MCs, or in the guises of his renegade rap personas that include Black Elvis, Dr. Octagon and Dr. Dooom, Keith has established himself as an innovative lyricist whose raps stretch the envelope to the limit while exciting and entertaining the listener. Kool Keith, nee Keith Thornton, first emerged as part of the legendary New York crew, the Ultramagnetic MCs.</p>
<p>At a time when rap was slowly making the transition from B-Boy braggadocio to a more aggressive, politicized stance, the group quickly established themselves as lyrical innovators with such classics albums as Critical Beatdown, Funk Your Head Up, and the Four Horsemen. Kool Keith launched a solo career and through his various releases he explored his many sides, from the playful to the downright carnal, releasing such independent records as Kool Keith&#8217;s Sex Style and Dr. Dooom&#8217;s First Come, First Served.</p>
<p>In addition to his many rap outings, Keith proved he was not averse to cross-genre experimentation and even collaborated with the electronica outfit Hardkiss on &#8220;Abandon Ship&#8221; (Sharks &amp; Mermaids mix) on the Astralwerks imprint; in fact, Kool Keith appears on the Prodigy album Fat Of The Land as the voice of &#8220;Smack My Bitch Up&#8221; and on the track &#8220;Diesel Power.&#8221; On a recent commercial tip, Kool Keith appears as Dr. Ultra, the lead character in a series of nationally-broadcast television ads for Sprite. Looking back at his vast eclectic body of work, Keith says &#8230;&#8221;I&#8217;m not about nostalgia, I&#8217;m not about looking back. If I made a hit, I moved on and never looked back&#8230;. the future is what I should be dwelling on right now.&#8221;</p>
