Brew Music: Dead Prez "Summertime"

Check out the new video from Dead Prez. It's called "Summertime" and was directed by Tao Ruspoli.

I love these dudes! The whole vibe of this song and video makes me wanna shave and put on a sundress!

Meantime...in other DP news, the dynamic duo wants you to go green. They've embarked on a campaign to encourage health awareness and environmental justice. Here are a few tidbits:

• Going Green Means Economic Development. The opportunity and the necessity to serve the needs of our people are here. We can serve the needs of our communities with holistic, fair priced, life-affirming products. We need to be more than just consumers, contributing to the Green Revolution as producers, suppliers and distributors.

• We Ain’t Gotta’ Be Sick. The hood suffers from allergies, asthma and other preventable sicknesses that can be controlled and often times eliminated with education, access to healthy food choices, economic development and conscious effort.

• It Costs More To Be Unhealthy Than It Does To Be Healthy. In our communities, complaints over the high prices of organic and natural products are completely warranted. This is a fight that must be won through our participation, advocating a Greener lifestyle.

• Self Love is Taking Care of Ya’ Self. Curly or wavy, nappy or knotty, full or free. Natural hair is beautiful, strong and expresses the vibrancy of your internal being and wellness. Stop trying to meet the false physical standards imposed by society.

• Drug addiction, Drug Abuse and Just Plain, Old Over-Doing It. Alcohol abuse and other recreational toxic substances rob our community of much of its potential.

Word to your motha, Dead Prez! It's time to paint the hood green! But, I will be holding onto my perm. I'm just sayin'...
