A YouTube channel with over 150 tasty videos related to marijuana, this site features a nice combination of informational, comedic, musical and conspiratorial videos. Standouts include an informative lecture video entitled “Was Jesus a Stoner?” which actually presents legitimate evidence that Jesus used cannabis, and an interview with former Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura in which he entertains the notion of being a judge at Cannabis Cup, entitled “Meet Governor Jesse Ventura.”

Another YouTube channel featuring all marijuana related videos, with several hilarious comedic sketches. Standouts here are the videos of U.S. troops smoking weed in Afghanistan and the Bill Hicks standup routine about why weed is illegal. The site also includes a forum for subscribers of the channel to interact with each other and with the “Pope of Dope” himself.

(or search “Katt Williams weed”)
One of the funniest standup routines on YouTube about weed, starring hilarious comedian Katt Williams from the Def Comedy Jam: “There is a chemical in weed that’s called ‘Fuckit,’” says Williams at one point, “and if you could just get that in your system it could change your life.”

When word got around about Chris Rock's new documentary "Good Hair," I was skeptical. Why would a man, who doesn't even have much hair, want make a documentary about it? The documentary centers around the annual three-day Bronner Bros. Hair Show in Atlanta, GA.

Grass the Documentary

Written by Lara Marsman

These days, no one would be surprised that Woody Harrelson is the narrator of a documentary about the history of marijuana. "Grass" moves along a timeline starting in 1912, where laborers in Laredo, Texas smoked to relax, and ending in NYC during the Clinton administration of 1999. "Grass" opens with a clip from "High on the Range," a silent, black and white film from 1929 depicting a young man who "only wants to try" marijuana and ends up killing a man. Harry Anslinger, drug commissioner for the Federal Bureau of Narcotics and this flick's bad guy, goes to great lengths to put marijuana in a negative light.

B-Liminal

They say that the greatest things in life are unexpected, and the idiom holds true for Jupiter, Florida's own B-Liminal. What began as a small venture founded by Bryce Rutkowski in 2007 unfolded into a full-on band with the addition of members Michael Lyons, Max Fraser and Ryan "Ryngo" Weidenfeld. It wasn't long after their coming together that they were discovered by Jett Beres and subsequently signed to Secret 7 Records in 2009. Now, with their debut album, Shore Culture, released and available on iTunes, the four guys have found themselves living a life of what can be called an overnight success. In the short time span of only two years, B-Liminal has already become one of South Florida's most highly-acclaimed acts.

And after listening to Shore Culture, it's no wonder that this band has substance. Songs like "Strength" and "Why Do I" will not only get you moving, but they will leave you inspired as well.
B-Liminal's blend of rich reggae riddims and thought-provoking lyrics festooned with their interpolation of ska rock is more than passable; it's splendidly satisfying.

In 1992, the rock world became all the more blessed with the release of the highly acclaimed first album of The Stone Temple Pilots aptly titled: Core.  The rise to fame and infamy has been a rough ride for Weiland and gang with much publicized drug addictions and a messy breakup nearly a decade ago.

SADE

Written by Michael Hacker

The always-gorgeous voice of Sade Adu straddles the lines of Latin influenced tones and rhythm and blues approach. Sade, named after lead singer Sade Adu, is a closet favorite of millions of music lovers out there. The band has never seemed to get the respect they deserve, even after such hits as "No Ordinary Love", lit up the airwaves and the silver screen in ‘Indecent Proposal'. Sade's recently released album Soldier of Love was released on February 8th. Being the first new material in almost ten years, we believe the music may have a new home for listeners of a softer rock/soul style of music. Her sultry Jazz voice conjures up images of smoky Jazz clubs and the gorgeous singer standing there, alone on a stage belting out lines like " I've lost the use of my heart, but I'm still alive. Still looking for the life. The endless pool on the other side. It's a wild wild west. I'm doing my best." True to the jazz and blues predecessors, Sade's latest album hits the heart and all the range of emotions it could produce. And we love her for it.
