Victor ash is a unique artist, born in Portugal in 1968 and currently lives and works out in Copenhagen, Denmark. He works primarly in the streets. In Ash’s words, his works are always a direct reflection of what takes place in society here and now. Like most artists, Victor doesn’t seem to like to explain his work, but rather the world see the references to the current state of society.
From the early age of 13 years old, Victor has been intrigued by the styles and energy that inspires the writers behind the forever evolving graffiti movement. As a writer himself, after years of developing his style and objectives as an artist, he seems to continue to evolve and reinvent himself as an humble and dedicated artist.

P.O.S. TO RELEASE NEW ALBUM "NEVER BETTER"
P.O.S. returns with Never Better, February 3rd on Rhymesayers. It's the follow-up to 2006's critically acclaimed Audition. Most of P.O.S' new album was written in a moving car. On it, he raps at full-clip to ride rolling drums and revving distortion. There's an urgency that he keeps in careful check, and then unleashes for spring-loaded verses that represent his best work. P.O.S built his reputation as an innovator, with an unlikely punk rock past and expressive, honest content. He re-earns the accolades with every release. His records capture his charisma-they're driving and sincere, the dark moments counterbalanced by some giggling banter with the engineer. On Never Better, the new disc, he conjures get-away cars, racing chariots, the pursuit of sirens, and the occasional rueful nighttime drive.
P.O.S. himself made more than half of the beats on Never Better, and the production bears his unmistakable signature. The album enters a room like bombshell with a black eye-badass, noisy, impossible to ignore. Feedback and relentless drum rolls are only occasionally tempered by sung choruses and clean, chiming guitar lines. Some critics will be eager to categorize the album as a hybrid-some kind of crossover project. But it's probably not. P.O.S is a rapper with range, he's a real musician and an unstoppable performer. For him, genres are as they ever were: permeable.

Congo leaders 'killed opponents'
Troops had killed or detained hundreds of people, Human Rights Watch said.
A rights group has accused the government of the DR Congo of using violence to eliminate political opponents since polls in 2006.
Human Rights Watch (HRW) said Congolese security forces had deliberately killed more than 500 people in a campaign against opposition groups.
A government spokesman told the BBC the allegations were false.
HRW said the abuses were attracting scant attention because everyone was focusing on the conflict in the east.
More than 250,000 people have fled their homes since fighting erupted in August between government troops and rebels loyal to Tutsi General Laurent Nkunda.
