Larry Busacca/PW/Getty Images Congratulations are in order for Beyoncé and Jay-Z, as the pair seems to have found an excellent babysitter for their three children, which include, of course, two newborns. In the space of less than a week, Beyoncé went backstage at Dear Evan Hansen, then crashed Rihanna's Diamond Ball along with her husband and Leonardo DiCaprio, which included taking in a performance by Kendrick Lamar (and presumably the glorious sight of Rihanna working her angles to get a good selfie with him in the background). It doesn't seem like the couple partied too hard, though, given that the next day, they were in the Hamptons, at the Bridgehampton Golf Club for The Bridge, a mini art fair on a golf course that brought out respected galleries like Canada, Karma, David Kordansky, Marlborough Contemporary, and David Zwirner at the same time as an annual local car show. Once there, Beyoncé, in a boldly hued R E L AT E D dress she topped off with an Off-White belt and sneakers, and Jay-Z, in track pants and a Raf Simons hoodie, were not shy: They hopped aboard a golfFergie Quietly Made Her cart, and Beyoncé even stopped to admire the cars on show, saying herWhy Linda Hamilton and Jamie hellos with a popsicle in hand.

Not that their taste always lines up: Jay-Z once bought a black-and-white photo by the artist Laurie Simmons, of a pistol with a pair of legs. Beyoncé sent it back, replacing it with a similar Simmons piece featuring a perfume bottle rather than a gun. (Maybe these differences in taste explains why they recently bought a home so big, they can each have a private wing.) But Beyoncé in particular has also made a point to support younger emerging artists. She tapped Awol Erizku, a 28-year-old artist, to take her internet-breaking pregnancy announcement photos, and Mason Poole, an L.A.- and Paris-based photographer with only 4,000 Instagram followers, to take her first photos with her twins Rumi and Sir. (Beyoncé's mom, Tina Knowles, is, after all, a notably knowledgable art connoisseur, as is often evidenced on Instagram, where she once expertly publicly guilt-tripped her daughter Solange and simultaneously name-checked the artist Kara Walker.) ADVERTISING R E L AT E D Fergie Quietly Made Her Why Linda Hamilton and Jamie Comeback in Brooklyn Last N… Lee Curtis Returning t… Victoria Beckham Says Wearing Color Instead of Her … It's no surprise, then, that in the last few days, Beyoncé and Jay-Z also made a point to stop by an exhibition by Sadie Barnette, who is in her early thirites, at Fort Gansevoort in New York—though being Beyoncé and Jay-Z, "stopping by" means shutting down the Meatpacking District gallery and getting a private tour of the exhibition, "Compland," before it even opened. The title is a reference to both Compton and Oakland, and the show is a continuation of Barnette's ongoing examination of the 500-page surveillance file the FBI kept on her father, Rodney Barnette, who founded the Compton chapter of the Blank Panthers in 1968. Beyoncé and Jay-Z took a particular interest in the enlarged reproductions of the files, and also reveled in Barnette's glittery purple homage to Prince, whom both had a connection to. (Beyoncé even wrote the foreword to an upcoming book about Prince, out next month.) Still, despite the exhibition's dark overtones, the pair kept the spirit of their recent art-buying forays light: both took time to enjoy Barnette's recreations of '70s California living rooms stocked with Hello Kitty accessories, including Hello Kitty-adorned cotton candy. Whether for Blue Ivy, Rumi, Sir, or herself, in the end, Beyoncé decided to take a bag home with her—and make her bodyguard hold it. highyonce Follow R E L AT E D.

  • Gillian Laub CV 2021
    Gillian Laub (b.1975, Chappaqua, New York) is a photographer and filmmaker based in New York. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a degree in comparative literature before studying photography at the International Center of Photography, where her love of visual storytelling and family narratives began. Laub’s first monograph, Testimony (Aperture 2007), began as a response to the media coverage during the second Intifada in the Middle East, and a desire to create a dialogue between apparent enemies. This work is comprised of portraits and testimonies from Israeli Jews, Israeli Arabs, Lebanese, and Palestinians all directly and indirectly affected by the complicated geopolitical context in which they lived. Laub spent over a decade working in Georgia exploring issues of lingering racism in the American South. This work became Laub’s first feature length, directed and produced, documentary film, Southern Rites that premiered on HBO in May 2015. Her monograph, Southern Rites (Damiani, 2015) and travelling exhibition by the same title came out in conjunction with the film and are being used for an educational outreach campaign, in schools and institutions across the country. Southern Rites was named one of the best photo books of 2015 by TIME, Smithsonian, Vogue, LensCulture, and American Photo. It was also nominated for a Lucie award and Humanitas award. "Riveting...In a calm, understated tone, Southern Rites digs deep to expose the roots that have made segregated proms and other affronts possible. Southern Rites is a portrait of the inequities that lead to disaster on the streets of cities like Baltimore and Ferguson, Mo.” - The New York Times Laub has been interviewed on NPR, CNN, MSNBC, Good Morning America, Times Talks and numerous others.

  • Considering the Worthy Sacrifice Hip Hop Artists May Need to Make to Reclaim the Heart of Hip Hop, Its People
    It’s Not Me, It’s You: Considering the Worthy Sacrifice Hip Hop Artists May Need to Make to Reclaim the Heart of Hip Hop, its People by Sharieka Shontae Botex April, 2019 Director of Thesis: Dr. Wendy Sharer Major Department: English The origins of Hip Hop evidence that the art form was intended to provide more than music to listen to, but instead offer art that delivers messages on behalf of people who were not always listened to. My thesis offers an analysis of Jay-Z and J. Cole’s lyrical content and adds to an ongoing discussion of the potential Hip Hop artists have to be effective leaders for the Black community, whose lyrical content can be used to make positive change in society, and how this ability at times can be compromised by creating content that doesn’t evidence this potential or undermines it. Along with this, my work highlights how some of Jay-Z and J. Cole’s lyrical content exhibits their use of some rhetorical strategies and techniques used in social movements and their use of some African American rhetorical practices and strategies. In addition to this, I acknowledge and discuss points in scholarship that connect with my discussion of their lyrical content, or that aided me in proposing what they could consider for future lyrical content. I analyzed six Jay-Z songs and six J. Cole songs, including one song from their earliest released studio album and one from their most recently released studio album. I examined their lyrical content to document responses to the following questions: What issues and topics are discussed in the lyrics; Is money referenced? If so, how; Is there a message of uplift or unity?; What does the artist speak out against?; What lifestyles and habits are promoted?; What guidance is provided?; What problems are mentioned? and What solutions are offered? In my thesis, I explored Jay-Z and J.

    GRAMLIST.50 @saaareeee Volume 1 LETTER FROM THE EDITORS Dear Readers, The Gramlist.50 was born out of our love and commitment to discovering the next wave of social influence. We saw a gap in the market for cohesive social media intel based on audience, data and editorial trend forecasting, and we couldn’t stand on the sidelines anymore. The Gramlist.50 is a monthly influencer trend report designed for the use of publishers, brands and agencies, packed with storytelling to inform, entertain, and inspire. Why should you care? The business of influence (both perceived and actual) is something that requires insight and direction. Consider this as your cheat sheet. From trending hashtags to forecasting the influencers of tomorrow, The Gramlist.50 breaks down everything you need to know. Volume 01 is a sampling of our lifestyle, travel, fashion, and beauty channels, to give you a taste of what you will receive in each edition. Through quantitative analysis (what we call “influence metrics” aka everything that isn’t how many followers an account has) and an elite collective of editors and tastemakers, each volume will act as a deep dive into influencer marketing trends. Rest assured, one cannot buy their way onto these lists. This is purely editorial. We have no affiliation with those we showcase, and no contractual obligation to feature them. We simply want to tell the stories of those who could be most relevant and valuable across the social landscape. In summary, each edition will take you on a journey rich with data, discovery that we feel will help achieve your brand or organization’s goals.
