Quote:
Members of the hip hop band The Roots said in a statement: "When we found out that music was being used as part of the torture going on at Guantanamo, shackling and beating people - we were angry.

"Just as we wouldn't be caught dead allowing Dick Cheney to use our music for his campaigns, you can be damn sure, we wouldn't allow him to use it to torture other human beings. Congress needs to shut Guantanamo down."

There's only one song banned by the military commander at Gitmo, and that music video is directed by Pirate News...
