THE NEWFOUND LAND OCCUPIES ALL STREETS- HAPPY THANKSGIVING JAY Z.


UPDATE: FROM HUFFINGTON POST~

Jay-Z came in for a barrage of criticism late last week when it was reported that revenue from "Occupy All Streets" t-shirts that were being sold on his clothing site, Rocawear.com, were not going to the anti-corporate movement. It appeared the shirts had been pulled from Rocawear.com, but now it appears they were simply sold out.

A post on the Roc4Life blog said that the "Occupy All Streets" shirts were sold out because of demand.

Holy smokes. Those "Occupy All Streets" t-shirts sold out faster than Rick Perry can name three agencies. If you missed out on the first batch, we've got your back like scoliosis. Rocawear has already restocked the fancy black tops — available in all sizes via Rocawear.com.

"Jay-Z, as talented as he is, has the political sensibility of a hood rat and is a scrotum," one of the protests organizers said before the shirts were removed from the site. "To attempt to profit off the first important social moment of 50 years with an overpriced piece of cotton is an insult to the fight for economic civil rights known as #occupywallstreet."

Russell Simmons, the music industry mogul, defended Jay-Z on Twitter. “No one ever said the proceeds were not going to the cause that’s media’s spin,” tweeted Simmons.

Not long after Jay-Z released a line of t-shirts meant to cash in on the Occupy Wall Street protests that read "Occupy All Streets," the rap icon is scuttling the tees after he faced a firestorm of criticism for not planning to donate the proceeds from their sale to the anti-corporate movement.

The $22 shirts have been yanked from Rocawear.com, the site for Jay-Z's clothing line, according to the New York Daily News.

"Jay-Z, as talented as he is, has the political sensibility of a hood rat and is a scrotum," one of the protests organizers said before the shirts were removed from the site. "To attempt to profit off the first important social moment of 50 years with an overpriced piece of cotton is an insult to the fight for economic civil rights known as #occupywallstreet."

Russell Simmons, the music industry mogul, defended Jay-Z on Twitter. “No one ever said the proceeds were not going to the cause that’s media’s spin,” tweeted Simmons.

Jay-Z is currently on the Watch The Throne tour, which coincides with Jay-Z and Kanye West's mega-selling collaborative album of the same name. The album has been faulted by many critics who say that its focus on opulence is out of touch with the current economic climate. West came under some criticism from the Occupy movement when he showed up at Zuccotti Park near Wall Street but refused to comment or speak to anyone about why he came.

JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF AN EGO LACKING IN HUMILITY
SELLING GOODS`
CASHING IN;
SMART YES` SURE HE GETS A BIG FAT 'A' FOR EFFORT
INGENUITY
THE AMERICAN DREAM

WONDER WHAT KINDA TAXES HOMEBOY PAYS?!

AND THE PEEPS BUYING THIS SHIT/THIS PRODUCT
PROBABLY DON;T EVEN THINK ABOUT THE GREATER GOOD OF MANY

THE SPIRIT DOES NOT LOOK TO CASH IN
THE SPIRIT DOES NOT HAVE AN AGENDA RUN BY $
(( unless it be a Religious Church ))

THESE BIG TIME DUDES ARE SO JADED
I WONDER IF THEY EVEN SEE THROUGH THEIR OWN VEIL OF A MULTI-LAYERED EGO
I WONDER IF THEIR THIRST FOR MORE IS EVER QUENCHED

ALL THEY RAP ABOUT IS HIGH END HAVING
THEY R THE HAVERS'
THE ONE PERCENTER'S

YEAH SURE~ THROW 'EM A 24K BONE

UNFORTUNATELY, CHANGE CAN NOT OCCUR WHEN EYES ARE BLINDED BY BLING....

CHANGE DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN THE NEED TO HAVE MORE
BECOMES MORE IMPORTANT THEN THE NEED TO STAY TRUE AN HUMBLE TO THE SPIRIT WITHIN
TO THE SPIRIT OF THE EARTH....
CHANGE DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN THE DOLLAR COMES OFF A BROTHER'S BACK THAT'S LIVING
IN LACK
AND IS TOO IGNORANT TO SEE HE;S MAKING YOU $MACKA$$ ®ICH!

ALL I CAN SAY IS CHEERS TO A TRUE AMERICAN
THIS IS THE SAME DUDE THAT CAME TO VISIT THE NEW FOUND LAND~~~~HELD HANDS WITH THE AMERICAN INDIAN BROTHER AND THEN CONTINUED TO BLEED THE PEOPLE, THE SPIRIT OF THE LAND DRENCHING IT WITH THE BLOOD
OF CONSUMERISM..........THE SEEDS OF GREED WERE PLANTED....


GETTIN; OVER ON THE BROTHER;S AN
THE SISTERS.... HOW PROFESSIONAL` HOW CONSTITUTIONAL
HOW POLITICALLY CORRECT IN THIS CLIMATE OF 11-2011~


TO BE A HAVE OR A HAVE NOT THAT IS THE QUESTION!
JAY Z DON:T YOU HAVE ENOUGH ALREADY>>>>?????
YOU R TRULY A MONEY JUNKIE!

RUSSELL SIMONS IS NO DIFFERENT THEN A PUSHER OF σκλάβος~
LOOK IT UP~
HE DOES IT ALL. HE RUNS IT ALL AN TRIES TO EVEN IT OUT
BY DOING "GOOD DEEDS" TO JUSTIFY HIMSELF.
HEY JAY Z ~ RUSSELL JUSTIFICATION IS DENIAL IN ACTION!

HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A LOVELY THANKSGIVING.
