  • Letter in Support of Commutation Petition of Chauncey Hawkins Page 2
    The Weldon Project 3218 Glendale Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90039 www.theweldonproject.org June 13, 2019 President Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW. Washington, D.C. 20500 RE: Commutation Petition of Chauncey Hawkins Dear Mr. President: On behalf of Amir Muhadith (previously known as Chauncey Hawkins and Loon) and his family, we strongly urge you to grant him a presidential commutation of sentence without delay. The undersigned—musicians, actors, filmmakers, and community leaders strongly believe that justice necessitates the exercise of executive clemency in this case. In 2013, Mr. Hawkins was sentenced to 14 years’ imprisonment for a minor role in a non-violent drug case.1 His sentence was subsequently lowered to 136 months (11 years, 4 months) as a result of the All Drugs Minus 2 Amendment by the U.S. Sentencing Commission in 2014. He has served over 7 years of his sentence. We believe this should be enough. Chauncey Hawkins was born in Harlem, New York, and as a young adult he started his career in the music industry as a member of Mase’s rap group Harlem World and then became part of P. Diddy’s Bad Boy Records under the name Loon. He released his self- titled debut album Loon and made many guest appearances on songs of the R&B and hip hop genres.2 But he is most known for his appearance on P. Diddy’s hit songs “I Need A 1 Former Bad Boy Rapper Loon Gets 14-Year Sentence, BET (July 19, 2013); http://www.bet.com/news/music/2013/07/19/former-bad-boy-rapper-loon-gets-14-year- sentence.html 2 See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loon_(rapper) 3218 Glendale Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90039 | www.theweldonproject.org Letter in Support of Commutation Petition of Chauncey Hawkins Page 2 Girl” featuring Usher and “I Need A Girl Part 2” featuring Ginuwine.3 In 2004, Loon left Bad Boy Records to start his own label, Boss Up Entertainment.

  • No Church in the Wild: an Ontology of Hip Hop’S Socio-Religious Discourse in Tupac’S “Black Jesuz”
    No Church in the Wild: An Ontology of Hip Hop’s Socio-Religious Discourse in Tupac’s “Black Jesuz” Daniel White Hodge | March 23, 2013 Article, Nomos Journal <www.nomosjournal.org> ISSN 2165-8668 © 2013 by author. All rights reserved. Hip Hop is a voice: a voice that openly speaks for the marginalized, the poor, the downtrodden, and those living in oppressive conditions. Hip Hop is an urban sub- and co- culture that seeks to express a lifestyle, attitude, and/or urban individuality.1 Hip Hop rejects Eurocentric culture and seeks to increase a social consciousness along with a racial/ethnic pride. Hip Hop is also a musical genre that uses rap music as a vehicle to send and fund its message of social, cultural, and political resistance to dominant structures or norms. Thus, rap music is the primary medium of Hip Hop culture that brings definition, value, understanding, and appreciation to the social isolation, economic hardships, political demoralization, and cultural exploitation endured by most ghetto-poor communities. Rap and Hip Hop captures and esteems the ghetto-poor existence, located within many urban enclaves, as valid and real to all ethnic minorities and poor whites.2 Within this discourse, there is something larger at work: a fundamental attempt to make God more accessible to a people who have been, in large part, ignored by many religious and spiritual entities.3 Christina Zanfagna, an ethnomusicologist who studies Hip Hop and religion, claims, “Mainstream hip-hop percolates with unlikely and multifaceted religious inclinations.
