Blending hip-hop with funk, reggae, jazz, folk and rock, the undefinable group that is Michael Franti and Spearhead extends their outspoken stance on peace and social justice issues to sustaining our planet. Their annual Power to the Peaceful festival in Golden Gate Park this September should be a testament to the bands green-fueled staying power. Word around the campfire is that Franti's got a new album releasing then too, but for now, enjoy "Hello Bonjour" off the Yell Fire album and dream of grooves to come.

Hey Miss Pea! Unfortunately, no... some of the artists agreed to making their song downloadable, and some only agreed to streaming their song directly from LIME. I love Michael Franti too and wish this song were downloadable to put on the old ipod. But at least you can listen to it streaming whenever you want from the LIME site.
Which song would you want to download? Who's your favorite on this list?
