After all, with some 90 + stations responding to our sur- vey, it's basically your window on RockWorld as it went down this past year. The first year of any new business is hell on wheels, (Groanong, creaking, barking dog sound efx, please) and we've seen quite a parade in '87. When I look back over my final comments last year (after nine issues), it sounded as if we had moved mountains.

Founded upon a sample-based methodology, the style’s perceived authenticity and sonic impact are largely attributed to the use of phonographic records, and the unique conditions offered by ‘composition’ within a sampling context. Yet, while the dependence on pre-existing recordings chal- lenges traditional notions of authorship, it also results in unavoidable legal and financial implications for sampling composers who, increasingly, seek alternative ways to infuse the sample-based method with authentic content.

    Cover: Pat O’Neill Untitled (shades) 1974 35 mm film mounted in glass, straight-grain Douglas fir wood frame 23 x 17 inches Table of Contents Anna Shechtman: Introduction Daphne Brooks: “Ain’t Got No, I Got Life”: #OscarsSoWhite & the Problem of Women Musicians on Film Jerome Christensen: Pure as Jesus and Cunning as Satan K. Austin Collins: Stakes Is High: On Spike Lee’s Chi-Raq J.D. Connor: Making Things Right: Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens Derek Nystrom: Of Christians and Communists: Joel and Ethan Coen’s Hail, Caesar! — INTRODUCTION — Hollywood’s Self-Critique: Five Essays on Race and Class at the Movies Chris Rock’s monologue at this year’s Academy Awards — in which he called Hollywood “sorority racist” and the event itself the “White People’s Choice Awards” — was deceptively consistent with the industry’s own self-critique featured in many of this year’s top-grossing and critically acclaimed films. Hollywood, it seems, has learned to parry generic attacks on the industry’s sexism, racism, and classism with genre films that keep the system well oiled and, perhaps, the critics at bay. The five essays featured in this collection concern films that seek absolution for the industry’s consistently unsavory politics by addressing Hollywood’s politically incorrect history in their stories or backstories. Indeed, these are mostly historical films that depict racial protest and class warfare from the perspective of an industry that continually finds itself on the wrong side of American history when it comes to issues of race and class. Jerome Christensen writes about Trumbo, a biopic about Hollywood’s most successful blacklisted screenwriter, and a film whose producers nonetheless obfuscate its own shady production history.

  • BLACK VIOLIN Friday, October 2, 7 P.M
    Bodies at Risk: BLACK VIOLIN Friday, October 2, 7 p.m. ET Live Virtual Performance with post-show conversation Black Violin is endorsed by Yamaha Music, Bose and the National Association for Music Manufacturers (NAMM). The UMass Fine Arts Center is supported by the New England Foundation for the Arts through the New England Arts Resilience Fund, part of the United States Regional Arts Resilience Fund, an initiative of the U.S. Regional Arts Organizations and The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, with major funding from the federal CARES Act from the National Endowment for the Arts. ABOUT BLACK VIOLIN For more than a dozen years, Black Violin (comprised of Wil Baptiste on viola and Kev Marcus on violin) has been all about taking things further, exceeding expectations, challenging conventions. The classical- meets-hip-hop duo has steadily built a devoted following and a diverse touring base— culminating in such triumphs as two sold-out shows at the Kennedy Center with the National Symphony Orchestra commemorating the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s death—while occupying a musical lane that’s entirely its own. “When you do something you love, it’s not difficult,” says Wil Baptiste. “I’m just going on stage and being who I am. When people want to listen, when you touch them and make them want to keep fighting—to see that spreading out to more people, it’s about way more than just the music.” Indeed, Black Violin’s work extends far beyond the stage, reaching deep into urban communities with numerous free performances for students and hands-on engagement with youth symphonies and community centers.

  • Alicia Keys About Girl on Fire
    ! ALICIA KEYS ABOUT GIRL ON FIRE With the arrival of her fifth studio album, GIRL ON FIRE, (available November 27th), Alicia Keys emerges stronger and wiser— taking the reins of her career in a way she never has before. In this album, you hear an artist breaking free and exploring new worlds. Vibrant and soulful, energetic and intimate, GIRL ON FIRE is built to move you, physically and emotionally. “This album is about new beginnings, new perspectives and fresh starts,” says Keys. “There is something really empowering about finding your own inner strength— stripping away all the energy that no longer works for you and taking full control of how you want to live.” Eleven years ago, the tough girl from Hell’s Kitchen with the golden voice and mad piano skills arrived. After years of struggling to get an album released, Keys got the chance to perform “Fallin’” from her debut album, SONGS IN A MINOR, on The Oprah Winfrey Show… and a star was born. She spent the next ten years running on a treadmill of success: Platinum records. Sold-out concerts. World tours. 14 Grammy awards. Movie deals. Best-selling books. Philanthropic missions. Fans kept singing along, hit after hit: “No One,” “If I Ain’t Got You,” “Empire State of Mind,” among many others. Life eventually caught up to Keys for all its heartbreak and beauty: she lost an inspiration with her grandmother’s passing; she parted ways with her longtime manager, Jeff Robinson; she married artist and producer, Swizz Beatz, and together had a beautiful baby boy, Egypt.
