Grammy Family



In arts this President's Day: fully-electric "To Pimp a Butterfly" from Chicago GD-degree removed, Kendrick Lamar, stands tonight with 11 Grammy nominations. Kanye West claimed he will win 100 in his lifetime (Complex). Emanuel Administration-degree removed Chancelor Bennet (ChanceRaps.com) from 79th speculated about Grammy's commercial prerequisites... 

You said let’s do a good ass job with Chance 3
I heard you gotta sell it to snatch the Grammy
Let’s make it so free and the bars so hard
that there ain't one gosh darn part you can’t tweet

No More Parties in LA

...before naming Jason Van Dyke during a singular delivery of Ultralight Beam on NBC. West subsequently indicted, broadly and by name (Zuckerberg, Page), San Francisco / Silicon Valley arts and media financing: 
All you dudes in San Fran play rap music in your homes but never help the real artists…source
20 Committee observed if he didn't exist, West would have to be invented (Twitter). Quite right. From my perspective the comment on SF art financing is "deeper than rap". It's a comment about American geo-political power. West locates precisely names Super Bowl City and Baghdad By the Bay: San Francisco.

America Versus America

Before Mexico extradited Joaquin Guzman ( Department of State profile ) to Brooklyn on the final day of the Obama Administration, an assassin murdered the 37 year old Mexican judge assigned to Guzman's case . CCTV captured the point blank assassination: a young judge shot in the back of the head while jogging across the street ( YouTube ). Once in Brooklyn, the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York described Guzman's ability to influence politicians, judges, police, and militaries across the world, presented eleven exhibits, and petitioned New York's Eastern District court to detain Guzman before trial ( pdf ): "In sum, it is difficult to imagine another person with a greater risk of fleeing prosecution than Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera." With good reason. Guzman twice escaped maximum security prison. And the Brooklyn US Attorney wants Guzman to forfeit $14 billion. Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman  escaped authorities and ...

Southern Command's boss, Marine John Kelly, stepped down Friday, 1/8/2016 ( CSPAN ). He gave his final press conference at the Pentagon. Kelly toured Iraq and lost a son to combat i n  Sangin, Afghanistan,  Nov. 9, 2010.  The man put skin in the game for USA and lost. He bravely and h onorably answered questions about his personal pain as a parent. His support for Gold Star families . By my count, Kelly fielded 16 questions. 6 concerned Guantanamo Bay detainee transfer operations. Prisoner logistics. People movement. To/from Cuba. 3 questions concerned Kelly's POV on Iraq and Afghanistan wars. He discussed women in combat. Fighting in Sangin, Afghanistan. Photo attributed to Marines November 2010 . The same month Kelly's son was killed.  " They had called it “Sangingrad.” American forces rotated in because UK public refused to accept the casualty count. A question about Colombia. Venezuela. UAV. Kelly's opening statement emphasized the "great" 2...

DRAFT : #ChicagoIguala

#ChicagoIguala ( twitter ) refers to the trade corridor connecting two battlefields in the narcotics wars - one in Mexico. One in Chicago. A unique attribute of markets along the corridor is the frequency of violence, shooting, and unsolved murder. From that perspective, #ChicagoIguala is shorthand for a multi-year, transcontinental murder mystery involving 100s of thousands of Americans. It's also a symbol for state complicity and corruption in extrajudicial killing, kidnapping and disappearances. It's code for "a blackout in our history". Document storage at Juarez, MX PD. As see in Narcocultura . A road map or way finding tool (of sorts) to American security. I hypothesize that insecurity and security are decided in these towns . These are selected by two different methodologies right now: US comes from FBI Table 6 2014 and is sorted for homicides per capita per square mile - a density of homicide metric ( source ) pan American data comes from Seguridad ...
