Daggering – A wave of penis fracture in Jamaica

dagger1Booty shakers, you’re gonna love this.
In march, songs glorifyng sex in Jamaica had been banned from the radio stations because of the increasing amount of penis factures on the caribbean island. In fact, more than the lycrics, the dance that goes with them, the daggering, is the main reason of this prohition.
Unlike jamaican government’s prediction, daggering still goes on and has now gotten out of the country. In the US, Diplo, the head of the record label Mad Descent has made his own daggering video for his new project Major Lazer.

(Check out our interview of DIPLO coming up this week!)

Pavement to curate next ATP festival

Carrotmob

carrotmob sign Sitting, boycotting, black blocking, protesting, self-chaining to a tree: alter-globalization movements have been more than creative when it comes down to resist. Comparing businesses as “donkeys”, Brent Schulkin, a 27-year-old Stanford grad in San Francisco, created a new sort of “mob”, the Carrotmob to make businesses step forward to a more responsible state of mind. The deal is simple: the business makes a commitment, and he gets more consumers. Lire la suite
