The controversial documentary 9/11: Press for Truth raises important questions concerning the executive branches wrap up following 9/11 and is sure to inspire controversy and debate.
The film tells the story of four women who united together after each losing a family member to the 9/11 disaster. Feeling that the government had not spent nearly enough time investigating 9/11 or preparing for such an attack after several previous warnings, the women took on their own investigation, rallying the press toward their cause and putting pressure on the executive branch to launch a more thorough investigation.
The movie was immediately hailed by critics and enthusiastically embraced by a groundswell of concerned people worldwide who felt that the 9/11 Commission and the western news media had failed to account for many important issues. For these thousands, Press For Truth was the rational, skeptical, mainstream motion picture examination of the events of September 11th they had been eagerly awaiting.

2008-04-21 17:37:27 Description: Kurtis Blow was born Curtis Walker on August 9, 1959, in Harlem, New York . He is known as one of the first commercially successful rappers and the first rapper to sign with a major record label. (More) Kurtis Blow was born Curtis Walker on August 9, 1959, in Harlem, New York . He is known as one of the first commercially successful rappers and the first rapper to sign with a major record label. Curtis Walker got his public start in 1976 as a break-dancer and a block party DJ known by the name of Kool DJ Kurt. That same year he enrolled at the City College of New York and became a program director for the college radio station . Also in 1976, he joined a group called "The Force." Russell Simmons was a lead member of that group. The Force sponsored parties around Harlem until 1977, when Simmons moved the group to Queens, New York . After becoming an MC on his own, Kool DJ Kurt changed his name, with the persuasion of his manager Russell Simmons, to Kurtis Blow (as in body blow) . Kurtis began trying to sell himself as "the number one rapper in Queens," with Russell's help . For a short time Blow's regular DJ was Simmons' younger brother Joseph, who at the time was known as "DJ Run, the Son of Kurtis Blow." He later changed his name and went on to become the first third of Run-D.M.C. "If I Ruled the World" was the last of Blow's hit songs. His mainstream reputation decreased as newer hip hop made his rap style seem old-school and outdated . He went on to record a song with Dexter King, son of Martin Luther King Jr., titled "King Holiday" in observance of the civil rights leader's holiday . Blow finally gave up his fast fading recording career, but in the early 90s, he contributed rap material to the soap opera One Life to Live. He also spent several years hosting as a DJ for the Los Angeles based hip hop FM radio station, Power 106, every Sunday night on the "Kurtis Blow Old School Show." He now DJs on Sirius Satellite Radio's old school hip hop station, Backspin.. Although no longer recording music, Blow starred in the 1997 rap documentary, Rhyme and Reason. A theology major at Nyack College (Class of 2009) , Blow's recent focus has been on spirituality, evidenced by Kurtis Blow Presents: Hip Hop Ministry (2007, EMI Gospel), a compilation of Christian rap. "Krush Groove" is a 1985 Warner Bros. film, written by Ralph Farquhar and directed by Michael Schultz (who also produced the movie, along with Doug McHenry). This film is based on the early days of Def Jam Recordings and up-and-coming record producer Russell Simmons (re-named Russell Walker in the film), portrayed by Blair Underwood in his feature film debut. Russell Simmons was the film's co-producer and story consultant; he also has a cameo role in the film as a club owner named Crocket. In the movie, Russell Walker has signed all of the hottest acts to his Krush Groove record label, including Run-D.M.C., Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, and Kurtis Blow. Rick Rubin produces their records. When Run-D.M.C. has a hit record and Russell doesn't have the money to press records, he borrows money from a street hustler. At the same time, Russell and his brother Run are both competing for the heart of R&B singer/percussionist Sheila E. Also appearing in the film are LL Cool J, the Beastie Boys, New Edition, the Fat Boys, and some of their songs, as well as others from the likes of Chaka Khan, Debbie Harry, and The Gap Band. Members of the R&B band Full Force also make a cameo in the film as bodyguards. Krush Groove was filmed in the Bronx, New York (including at least one scene in the Marble Hill projects). Among the locations where the movie was shot was the famous Disco Fever, a popular club during the embryonic stages of hip hop which, by the time of the film, had fallen on some hard times. Disco Fever owner Sal Abbatiello expected the movie not only to turn the spotlight on the burgeoning rap movement but also to "bring attention [back] to the club"[citation needed] and so agreed to have scenes shot there. Unfortunately, the attention surrounding the filming brought the scrutiny of the local authorities, who shut the club down for good on the last day of shooting for not having all the proper licenses and permits. The movie was re-released on DVD in 2003. Among the special extras included on the DVD are commentary from Underwood, Schultz, and Source Magazine Senior Editor Brett Johnson, a theatrical trailer for the movie, and the Krush Groove All Stars video "Krush Groovin'".

Slow down, things have been a little crazy
Right now, it's time to get away
You can, find out, what it is you're really after
Time is on our side
Come on, we're leaving everything behind
You know that sun is shining
We'll keep driving doesn't matter where
Cause' we got that open highway
Leading our way
As long as you are there
Yeah, we can go anywhere
Woah, we can go anywhere
Ohhh, yeah
Breakdown, all the pressure that surrounds you
Allow, it all to fade away
We can, move on looking in the rearview mirror-
Wave goodbye, come on we're leaving everything behind
You know that sun is shining
We'll keep driving, doesn't matter where
'Cause we got that open highway leading our way
As long as you are there
Yeah, we can go anywhere
We're gonna be so far gone
Some place we ain't never been before
Finding a favorite song
We'll end up right where we belong
You know that sun is shining
We'll keep driving, doesn't matter where
'Cause we got that open highway leading our way
As long as you are there
You know that sun is shining
We'll keep driving, doesn't matter where
'Cause we got that open highway
Leading our way
As long as you are there.......

Kurtis Blow was born Curtis Walker on August 9, 1959, in Harlem, New York . He is known as one of the first commercially successful rappers and the first rapper to sign with a major record label. Curtis Walker got his public start in 1976 as a break-dancer and a block party DJ known by the name of Kool DJ Kurt. That same year he enrolled at the City College of New York and became a program director for the college radio station . Also in 1976, he joined a group called "The Force." Russell Simmons was a lead member of that group. The Force sponsored parties around Harlem until 1977, when Simmons moved the group to Queens, New York .

For a short time Blow's regular DJ was Simmons' younger brother Joseph, who at the time was known as "DJ Run, the Son of Kurtis Blow." He later changed his name and went on to become the first third of Run-D.M.C.
"If I Ruled the World" was the last of Blow's hit songs. His mainstream reputation decreased as newer hip hop made his rap style seem old-school and outdated .

In the movie, Russell Walker has signed all of the hottest acts to his Krush Groove record label, including Run-D.M.C., Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, and Kurtis Blow. Rick Rubin produces their records. When Run-D.M.C. has a hit record and Russell doesn't have the money to press records, he borrows money from a street hustler. At the same time, Russell and his brother Run are both competing for the heart of R&B singer/percussionist Sheila E. Also appearing in the film are LL Cool J, the Beastie Boys, New Edition, the Fat Boys, and some of their songs, as well as others from the likes of Chaka Khan, Debbie Harry, and The Gap Band. Members of the R&B band Full Force also make a cameo in the film as bodyguards.
Krush Groove was filmed in the Bronx, New York (including at least one scene in the Marble Hill projects). Among the locations where the movie was shot was the famous Disco Fever, a popular club during the embryonic stages of hip hop which, by the time of the film, had fallen on some hard times. Disco Fever owner Sal Abbatiello expected the movie not only to turn the spotlight on the burgeoning rap movement but also to "bring attention [back] to the club"[citation needed] and so agreed to have scenes shot there. Unfortunately, the attention surrounding the filming brought the scrutiny of the local authorities, who shut the club down for good on the last day of shooting for not having all the proper licenses and permits.
The movie was re-released on DVD in 2003. Among the special extras included on the DVD are commentary from Underwood, Schultz, and Source Magazine Senior Editor Brett Johnson, a theatrical trailer for the movie, and the Krush Groove All Stars video "Krush Groovin'". (Less)
