Novel is doing his part to get the word out by dedicating his new song to Oscar and his family.

Says Novel:

"So I saw the footage on Oscar grant like the rest of the world and was sadden and shocked by the tragic event that occurred.

If you dont know, Oscar Grant was a unarmed young black male shot in the back by an Oakland Police officer. This song is dedicated to him and his family and anyone who lost someone. This is my take on Gary Jules “Mad World”. I hope this doesn’t offend anyone in anyway for that is not my intention."

Novel - Mad World

In this piece, he writes, "I'm beyond words at this point... What's worse is this happens EVERYDAY and doesn't get recorded." ]]>

I am from the Bay Area and everyone knows how the police are from Oakland to SF to San Jose... It's not a mystery. If you haven't heard about Oscar Grant, please use your computer wisely and Google him. This is the most disturbing thing I think I've seen in my life and made me cry as a grown man. I can't believe I just watched that happen and to think that all of these people were there as witnesses. It's hard to assume any sort of positive intent. How was this man a danger to the three armed police officers when he was down on his stomach with his hands behind his back? Where is the justice? I think it's beyond time for action. You want to be angry about something, be angry about this. Be concerned that this was someone's son, brother, friend and a young girl's father. As a father, I can't even begin to imagine my daughter's life without me in it. And these soulless human beings made a judgment that wasn't theirs to make. I can't wait for the right wingers to start talking about this one. I'm beyond words at this point... What's worse is this happens EVERYDAY and doesn't get recorded.
