Calling for a new wave of Green Technology and Fair Trade Electronics. This music video highlights the main cause of rape and genocide in the Eastern Congo region as a desperate scramble for the minerals that power every cell phone and laptop. Produced and directed by Tanzanian Hip Hop guru, Zavara Mponjika, the video features US Hip Hop Ambassador Toni Blackman's collective, Rhyme Like a Girl, alongside California based Kenyan Afro-Soul artist and founder of Activate Afrika, Nasambu. In times when the mainstream media rarely highlights issues of consequence, leaving many people in a state of ignorance, these artists have joined together across time, space, and geographical borders to express their views on this global war and human rights catastrophe that is urgently awaiting a timely response. http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17717 Wed, 10 Jul 2013 17:02:15 +1000 http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17716-migos-chirpin Migos - CHIRPIN (Official Music Video) http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17716 Wed, 10 Jul 2013 16:56:46 +1000 http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17715-kanye-west-releases-black-skinhead-music-video . http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17715 Wed, 10 Jul 2013 16:53:01 +1000 http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17714-jagwar-ma-announces-second-show Nomadic Sydney band JAGWAR MA are pleased to announce that the Sydney show on their forthcoming tour has now sold out.

The band states, "With the evolution of the music industry, it’s becoming more and more difficult for money to find its way to the artist from a record label. With a platform like Indiegogo, we can eliminate the money filter middle man and connect with the fans directly. They are the most consistent part of this bands history and the only reason why we're around." http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17702 Tue, 09 Jul 2013 09:43:00 +1000 http://ucnews.uctvfm.com/news/17701-yarraville-laughs Leading lady comedians Hannah Gadsby, Denise Scott and Effie will set your winter weekend alight this July.
