MC Yogi “Vote For Hope” Video & Mp3

Leave a comment


Obama ’08 – Vote For Hope from MC Yogi on Vimeo.

Wanted to share this really cool music video by MC Yogi in support of Barack Obama. The “Vote for Hope” video was created at Ursa Minor Arts and Media in San Rafael, CA with chief animator James Curtis, using designs and direction from MC Yogi. Video funded and supported by grassroots donations. Read the artistic statement behind the video:

With the 2008 presidential election, Americans face a pivotal choice between not just two candidates, but two paradigms. We need someone who understands the complexity of our time. Someone who believes in investing in renewable energy, in education, in women’s rights, in civil rights, in healthcare for Americans. Someone who believes in dealing with global issues with diplomacy so we can restore our respect in the world. Barack Obama represents the change we need and can lead us into a brighter future.

“Vote For Hope” was written to encourage and inspire the hip hop generation—and everyone—to get involved, and contribute their time, energy, creativity, and other resources to be the change they want to see in the world. We have been inspired by the artistic and musical contributions that have been pouring out across the nation in support of Barack Obama’s campaign. Vote for Hope is our offering to this creative movement. It is our way of adding our small voice to the collective voice of millions of Americans calling for a change.

TGrundy’s latest “superfriends of podcasting” collabocast is out and it is a real doozy! This time around, we got together to share songs that express why we feel it is important to “Get Up, Get Into It, Get Involved” and GET OUT AND VOTE! 14 podcasters came together to create this nearly 90 minute set of 17 songs guaranteed to inspire you to step away from your desk come Tuesday, November 4th — if not sooner – to cast your ballot. My personal choice was the classic Chicago funk track, “Pollution,” by Pieces of Peace, which is a free download from Promonet. Enjoy!

Return from Paradise

Hiking on Catalina

Back home from a quick camping trip on Catalina Island, feeling a wee bit sunburned but happy. Leaving felt like being expelled from Paradise, I have to admit. Ryan and I had the whole campground to ourselves so we could just totally chill out on the beach, watch the sunset from our favorite hiking spot, and play music around the fire at night without a care in the world…

You can see more of my camping pix on Flickr.

Chillcast Nominated for Podcast Award

Anji with ShowGirls Award 2007
Anji with ShowGirls Award 2007

To my great surprise and delight, I learned that The Chillcast with Anji Bee has been nominated once again for The People’s Choice Podcast Award. I want to thank all of you – whoever you are – that took the time to visit podcastawards.com to nominate your humble hostess. You are the best! Of course, this is just the first step, to win the award, I would need everyone to go back and vote for me between October 23rd and November 6th, 2008. Now, I am much more concerned that all of my fellow Americans vote in the presidential election on November 4th, but it would still be pretty darned cool to win an award for the Best Podsafe Music Podcast!!! I must admit that, as fun as it was to win the group award for ShowGirls in 2007, it would be way more fun to have my very own Podcast Award here in my studio. 🙂
