This site is a little more grey than usual for
Grey Tuesday. I'm not even a big hip-hop fan, and honestly the DJ Dangermouse Grey Album just made me want to hear the
White Album again. But I think copyright laws stifle art and speechand the laws make it next to impossible to comment on our own culture. The Grey Album is
illegal art, but it shouldn't be.
There's more on the legal maneuverings surrounding this protest at
