Rhythm & Praise

Hip hop has become a culture of crime, money, sex, and hate. There are some who bring a radically different message to the inner city. A message of peace, hope, and love. This message comes in a style similar to the Secular Rap that endorses the indulgence of vices. For this reason many reject the effectiveness of Christian Rap. This documentary explores this idea. You will hear from Christian Rap artists, a college music professor, and a psychologist as they discuss the issues of the inner city, secular rap music, the power of music on a persons mind, and the effectiveness of Christian Rap.

Video: Matt Mason "The Pirate's Dilemma"

Matt Mason's keynote on The Pirate's Dilemma, his book on how to compete with piracy, filmed at The Medici Summit, March 3rd 2008, Scottsdale, Arizona. Mason discusses why piracy can be an opportunity as well as a threat, how pirates innovate outside of the marketplace and how legitimate businesses can respond. Using examples from music, fashion, software and the video game industry (to name just a few of the topics covered), Mason makes the case that it is possible to beat pirates offering the same products for free, and that when pirates are adding value to society in some way, society will get behind them, at which point the only way companies can beat them is by compete with them in the marketplace.
