This is the latest episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Jon Judah for the week of July 24, 2013 (originally aired on May 13, 2009) with some new and classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary.

This flashback episode's commentary focused on the absurd bill that Rep. John Conyers (Democrat - Michagan) is trying to pass through the U.S. Congress called HR848, that if it passes, will have various NEW music costs are passed on to all sorts of FM radio station owners, with the high possibility that great deal of Black-owned Radio Stations (and just regular radio station period) to shut down due to various economic issues. We talked about the potential impact this could have culturally in the U.S. for not just the Black Community, but for the music community at large from music artists, to listeners and others.

We also had a great interview with independent Hip-Hop MC, producer, graphic artist & activist Ravage the MeccaGodzilla (http://www.meccagodzilla.com).

We covered everything from Ravage's influences, being one of the founders of G.A.ME (the Grassroots Artists MovEment) in NYC, his history with the music industry from being a member of the supercollective Monsta Island Czars (MF Doom, MF Grimm, etc.) and beyond, Ravage's vision of the growth of Hip-Hop & where it needs to go, his latest album project (the "Erroars" production LP) & upcoming music situation, the international scene and more!

We do had a Black Agenda Report segment but no new Direct EFX segement this week.

Our extended commentary for this week's show focused on our viewpoints of the shocking "not guilty" Zimmerman trial verdict for the death of Trayvon Martin, independent and mainstream media coverage after it was handed down, the mixture of good and horrible U.S. & International reactions from all segments of society about the case, the next steps for Black America to take now for progress in this country (and ALL members of U.S. society who are not for individual & institutional racism), the "post-racial" myth finally falling part plus some other bits of news here and there.

There there is no brand new Black Agenda Report news mini-segment on this week's episode due to this week's commentary.

During the weekend of July 13, 2013 at The Howard Theatre in Washington, DC, the FuseBox Radio Broadcast/BlackRadioIsBack.com crew went out to cover the 2nd Annual DC Web Candy Competition held by The Ascension Group, Official Glam Girls and XXL Magazine

Hosted by celebrity casting director Mike Styles, XXL Magazine contributor Bernadette Giacomazzo and WPGC-FM radio personality Guy Lambert, the event featured various celebrity guest judges, an exotic car exhibition outside the venue, music provided by DJ 5'9" (Wale's Official DJ) and a live half-time performance by the fast-climbing independent Hip-Hop MC Yung Fliiboy.

We were able to get a lot of quality pictures of the event from the all of the models (right up to the Eye Candy winner being photographed by world-renowned photographer Scott Church), the various music performances and more...hope everyone enjoys them!
