Punk Rock Sunday: Vaguely Not Punk Rock Edition
Awhile back I found this song about Che Guevara by the French actress Nathalie Cardone. I don't know anything about her really and I don't even know when this song was popular. At first I thought it was kind of kitschy and overwrought but it grew on me.I've been in a cave for the past two months and so someone here in the comments alerted me to the fact that Public Enemy put out a new album. I really like the new single and Chuck D will always make up for Flavor Flav's mainstream silliness.
Which reminds me of one of my favorite performance's of all time - Dead Prez on Chappelle's Block Party.
And just because I have to admit my confusion at what to do in the face of identity politics I support but that structurally exclude me (for good reason) here's the MC5 with American Ruse.
And Kick Out the Jams Mother Fucker.
And, yes, I know no one knows what that means, but it really gets the people going.
