about------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
War (if it feels good, do it!)ùpresented by the DJs of Mass Destruction (Billy Jam, DJ Pone,
and Dawgisht) is a hip hop compilation of DJ and emcee tracksùall dealing with the issues of war
and peace, and US foreign policy, in particular the 2003 war on Iraq. In fact a great many of the
albumÆs 28 tracks utilize samples or soundbites from TV News coverage recorded during that 2003
US/Iraq ôwarö (at least what Dubya recognized as the ôwarö timeline). Highlights of this 74 minute
CD include Public Enemy, DJs of Mass Destruction, Guerrilla News Network, Mr. Lif, Steinski,
Tino Corp's Ben Stokes, Azeem, the funny as fuck 4AM, LapTop madmen Cat Five, middle school kids ARK,
slam-poet Aya de Leon, and noise-masters O-Type. A few of the compilation tracks were recorded
before the war, some after September 11, and others even earlier, including Shing02's rare,
Japanese-only import ôSince By Man Came Deathö and the amazing cut-and-paste masterpiece by Steinski &
Mass Media (ôIt's Up To Youö) which was recorded, not in 2003 as it sounds it could have been,
but during that other Gulf war, a decade earlier. Although most of the names (Iraq, Saddam, Oil, and Bush)
did not need to be changed to protect the guilty. Artists who recorded their tracks during the 2003
Iraqi war, such as Tino Corp's Ben Stokes, DJ Stoic, Quiet American, O-Type, 4AM, and project producers
the DJs of Mass Destruction, all used their recording sessions as a form of therapy or catharsis to
artistically vent their frustration with a war that all agreed was unnecessary and just plain wrong.
At that time (only earlier this year, mind you) the average American strongly disagreed with any form
of opposition to Bush's WAR, labeling such protests anti-American, pro-Taliban, or pro-terrorist.
However since the war (and post war months) dragged on and on without any resolvement in finding Saddam,
the Weapons of Mass Destruction, or even Bin Ladenùmany Americans have since altered their opinions
of the Bush administration's foreign policy. But no matter what side of the political divide anyone
stands on, all owe it to themselves to listen to this album.
