It is the story about two unsigned artits. Their artist names are Pacman and Peso. A little background on them is that they never had travelled before. They do live in the poor suburbs of Washington DC. Both of them had spent time in jail for minor offences.
Their story begins with the two artist raising money to jumpstart their career. They did manage to raise $10,400 from their campaign. Now you’re wondering why I am talking about this? The fact is that they want to use their money to kick-start their career in China and North Korea!!! They do plan to film songs like ``God Bless America`` on a party bus. They know they have a chance of dying. They did add on that if they survive, this would change their lives.
Mike Bassett did play a big role in their future journey
Bassett is a former Iraq war veteran. He did live seven years in South Korea. Therefore, he is aware of the situation going on over there. He is the one who has arranged the two rappers flights and visas. He does want people to understand that North Korea is misunderstood. He believes that the tow artist will be treated with politeness. But he did provide them with some cultural advices and did also tell them to modify some lyrics in their songs. I believe it might not be a great idea if they sing ``God Bless America``` because of all the controversy with the West.
Can they be compared to Dennis Rodman? Who knows? Only the future will tell us. This is for sure a story to follow up. http://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/nov/08/washington-rappers-peso-pacman-north-korea
