Certainly the most errie "coincidence" of 9/11 was the legendary album
cover from the Coup's 'Party Music' album.
I think it would be ludicrous to assume that the CIA was behind an album
--just because it's cover showed an attack on the World Trade Center towers.
I think it would be understandable to assume that the CIA was behind an album
--because it's cover showed an attack on the World Trade Center towers,
and which matched exactly the impacts of the two planes.
I think it would be well founded to assume that the CIA was behind an album
--because it's cover showed an attack on the World Trade Center towers,
and which matched exactly the impacts of the two planes; and
which was released with the word COUP in large letters over the
explosions.
I think it would be on the money to assume that the CIA was behind an album
--because it's cover showed an attack on the World Trade Center towers,
and which matched exactly the impacts of the two planes; and
which was released with the word COUP in large letters over the
explosions; and which was scheduled for release at the time of the
9/11 attacks.
There is coincidence and then there is coincidence.
I think it would be interesting to look further into this below.

The Coup (Myspace), is a rap
group from Oakland, California, founded in 1990 and fronted by Boots Riely:
Riely has spoken about that cover and 9/11:
Born in Chicago and raised in East Oakland's Funktown neighborhood, Boots became a teenage community organizer, but later switched from a clipboard to the microphone, forming the Coup with rapper E-Roc. Pam the Funkstress, the first female DJ star in the famously competitive Bay Area turntablist scene, later signed on.

Boots Speaks Out About 9-11
by Davey D-9/20/02
Last week Boots Riley and his Oakland based rap group The Coup found themselves embroiled in a controversy that was unintended. Their new album 'Party Music' was scheduled to be released. There wasn't expected to be a whole lot of fanfare.....
The problem that Boots ran into had to do with the front album cover which depicted Boots holding a detonator blowing up the now destroyed World Trade Center. The cover was shot several months ago and was in line with Boot's philosophy of not liking capitalism. The World Trade Towers have been viewed as a symbol of capitalism all over the world. Boot's depiction was designed to symbolize a concept, little did he know that his picture would be eerily prophetic. Shortly after the second plane crashed into the World Trade Center, Warner Brothers which distributes the album decided to wisely pull the album. All images of the World Trade being blown up were removed from websites and distributed material. However, the word had gotten out and days later The Coup's album cover was being discussed all over the country.....
Talk show pundits said it was just another example of the horrors 'gangsta rap'. Others said it was nothing but tasteless, cheap exploitation. Still others felt The Coup themselves needed to be investigated to see if they had any ties to subversive forces within the US....
Boots: Well, first the album got pulled. Second, people seem to be talking about this because the blast shown in the picture is on the same level and general area of where the planes crashed. When we originally made that picture it was in May and June. It was supposed to be a metaphor to symbolize us destroying 'capitalism'.

I came up with the idea with the photographer. We took the pictures
on May 15, and we were done with it by the beginning of June. Any
similarities are totally coincidental, and it was originally supposed to be
more of a metaphor for destroying capitalism — where the music is
making capitalist towers blow up......
"The Coup are deeply saddened by this horrible tragedy," Toni Isabella, general manager of the group's label, 75 Ark, said in a statement. "The Coup advocates change, but change through peaceful means, never through violence."

The record label which released Coup's album was 75Ark:
These days the label's website is parked: http://www.75ark.com/In 1999, the Automator co-founded a label, 75 Ark, giving him the freedom to do the music he likes without trying to sell millions of records.

We can find out a little more abouy 75Ark from a legal document filed in support of a case against Napster in 2000:

But, more interestingly, David S. Schulhof has given a number of speeches
to an outfit called the Smith Center for Private Enterprise Studies. Wonder
if this is the same guy? :

Let's leave that angle and return to study The Coup's Boots Riley.They hope other entrepreneurs will be encouraged to support and promote free market principles.

Of interest to students of COINTELPRO, Riley is reportedly the son
of a Black Panther lawyer:
Let's hear some more:Riley, son of a Black Panther lawyer, is unrepentant.

Finally, I think it would be indisputable to assume that the CIA was behind an album
Raymond "Boots" Riley has been pushing for change ever since he was a kid. At 14, he started political organizing, canvassing for the Progressive Labor Party and other institutions. And while he rapped throughout high school, it wasn't until an incident in 1989 that he understood the power of hip hop.
While working for the pro-Communist International Committee Against Racism in S.F.'s Double Rock Projects, Riley heard from dozens of people about a then-recent instance of police brutality, in which several cops had allegedly beat on a woman, Rossi Hawkins, and her twin sons....
The group's debut LP, Kill My Landlord, which came out on Wild Pitch in 1993, featured "I Know You," Riley's re-telling of the Double Rock story, along with shout outs to the L.A. riots and The Communist Manifesto, all rapped over West Coast-styled G-funk.
Despite three rather remarkable albums, the Coup remained an underground phenomenon until 2001, when it became famous for ... an album cover.

--because it's cover showed an attack on the World Trade Center towers,
and which matched exactly the impacts of the two planes; and
which was released with the word COUP in large letters over the
explosions; and which was scheduled for release at the time of the
9/11 attacks; and which showed a guitar tuner portrayed as a detonator
with the words "Covert Labs" on the face of the electronic device.

There is coincidence.....
...and then there is calculated Psychological Operations
designed to send a disconcerting message that 9/11 was A Coup.
Just the CIA messing with people's heads.
Laying groundwork for the Velvet Revolution.
The real Coup was a looooong time ago.
