Dr. Huey P. Newton Foundation Executive Director David Hilliard and
Hip-Hop Activist Raoul Juneja (a.k.a. Deejay Ra) released their long
awaited second collaboration last week with "A Revolutionary Analysis of
Sweetback" rap CD arriving on Canadian retail shelves through an
unprecedented independent alliance between Hilliard's Panther Records
and Juneja's Lyrical Knockout Entertainment labels with California's
RUNT, Vancouver's SCRATCH and Ontario's SonicUnyon Distribution
imprints.
Hilliard and Juneja's first collaboration, a book/DVD/CD giveaway
tribute to "second-generation Black Panther" late rap icon Tupac Amaru
Shakur, took place September 2003 across Canadian community radio
stations and urban web sites branding Hilliard's Panther Records as a
bridge between the 'civil rights' and 'hip-hop' generations, followed by
Summer 2004 Toronto/Vancouver performances of legendary anti-apartheid
Zimbabwe vocalist Thomas Mapfumo and the Panther Fugitives youth rap
group (managed by Hilliard's son Dorion).
But it ended up being a February 2005 Spike Lee "Huey P. Newton Story"
Canadian DVD release by acclaimed UrbanWorks/Ventura imprint which
offered Hilliard and Juneja the necessary entertainment media interest
to debut the Panther Fugitives on Canadian college radio ; lead emcee
Jamiel Hassan having originally written his group's "Getting The Man's
Foot Outta Ya BaadAsss" debut in-store single with powerhouse production
team Melvin and Mario Van Peebles (who featured Jamiel's poetry-rap in
their 2003 Toronto FilmFest selected "BaadAsss" and on the movie's
SonyPictures Soundtrack).
As Chief of Staff David Hilliard's Black Panther Party free food,
medical and legal 1960's global initiatives were being branded "the
greatest threat to the internal security of the United States" by FBI
director J. Edgar Hoover, Melvin Van Peebles' 1971 Black Power themed
"Sweetback" film wasn't taken lightly by the country's cinema boards
either, only two theatres in America agreeing to support what the late
Ossie Davis described as "Melvin taking on the Hollywood machine on his
own terms and changing the game."
Yet it was a grassroots newspaper's front page endorsement and
independent radio's premiere of a funk group's film score that led
sellout 1970's crowds of all races and ages to make "Sweetback" one of
America's top-grossing independent films ever - as seen in epilogue
interviews with Bill Cosby and David Hilliard during the credits of
Mario's 2003 "BaadAsss" that newspaper was "The Black Panther," that
endorsement was by Dr. Huey P. Newton, and that funk group was Earth,
Wind and Fire.
"The 1971 Panther newspaper cover and Sweetback funk single can be seen
in retrospect as Melvin's blueprint for 2005's hip-hop movie marketing,
so the Huey Foundation wanted to give rap fans a taste of history while
updating the media they received it in," explains Juneja about
Hilliard's use of Huey's original Van Peebles newspaper endorsement as
the cover for Panther Records' new "Sweetback" rap CD, in addition to
including Huey audio commentaries on the album and in the insert edited
by the late Panther leader's wife Fredrika.
"But make no mistake, the second kids hear Jamiel quoting Tupac,
dedicating a song on 'Sweetback' to multi-cultural fans of Hip-Hop
culture and even shouting out its contemporary musicians like Kanye
West, today's youth will know the Fugitives are trying to giving them
positive Panther messages through a rap language they understand and
respect."
