In Houston, Texas, a public video screening of Kanye West's song "New Slaves" from his album ""Yeezus" set for a June 18th release date, was shut down by Houston police. Several news outlets report that the Friday night screening of the "New Slaves" video at Rothko Chapel in Houston was raided by police and they threatened the crowd that had shown up with arrests if they did not leave the premises.
The crowd which was described as "upbeat" and "respectful" thought the police were part of the showing but soon realized that the new slave patrols were serious about arresting them if they stayed. The Houston "New Slave" patrol police department has yet to explain why they shut down the scheduled watch party of the video.

Join us for Militant Minded Radio this week hosted by Sis. Abena Afreeka and Bro. Yasin 360 Wise Guy.
Tonight we will be breaking down two topics of interest in the Hip-Hop community.
Kanye West is making headlines for the way he released the single "New Slaves" by broadcasting an image of himself spitting the lyrics on the sides of more than 100 buildings around the world. He has been called out for being an ego-trippin attention seeker and praised for dropping knowledge on masses about the Prison Industrial Complex. Other points of interest include his ample use of the N-Word and threatening sexual violence against those that he perceives as making money in the private prison industry.
Members of the Militant Mind Movement say that 13 yr-old Chicago rapper LIL Mouse needs to be put in a RBG time out and his parents need to have their asses whooped. The under aged foul mouthed rapper was recently kicked out of school and arrested when he threaten to kill and slapped an 8 yr-old 3rd grader for snitching. He was not alone in his threats and others were involved in targeting the 8 yr old child. LIL Mouse is being mentored by Chicago rapper Chief Keef who is only 17 yrs-old and signed to Interscope Records, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group, is no stranger to controversy himself. LIL Mouse stirred up controversy last year with his profanity laced song "Get Smoked" with LIL Wayne who put the song out on the mix tape "Dedication 4". In the song the pint sized young rapper talked about killing nig**s, being high on pills and referring to females as bit***es. Murders in Chicago have obtained genocide levels buy yet these are the messages that corporate child rappers are putting out.
