Alicia Keys Releases Emotional New Song “Perfect Way to Die”
ALICIA KEYS RELEASES EMOTIONAL NEW SONG “PERFECT WAY TO DIE” “Of course there is no perfect way to die. This phrase doesn’t even make sense but that’s what makes the title so powerful and heartbreaking because so many have died unjustly. It’s written from the point of view of the mother whose child has been murdered because of the system of racism that looks at Black life as unworthy. We all know none of these innocent lives should have been taken due to the culture of police violence.” – Alicia Keys The Grammy Winner Set to Give a Special Performance of the Song during the BET Awards Broadcast on June 28 STREAM “PERFECT WAY TO DIE” DOWNLOAD ARTWORK AND LYRICS NEW YORK, NY (June 19, 2020) -- According to Alicia, “Of course there is no perfect way to die. This phrase doesn’t even make sense but that’s what makes the title so powerful and heartbreaking because so many have died unjustly. It’s written from the point of view of the mother whose child has been murdered because of the system of racism that looks at Black life as unworthy. We all know none of these innocent lives should have been taken due to the culture of police violence.” Listen to “Perfect Way To Die” across digital platforms HERE. As the outrage and protests over the repeated killings of unarmed black men and women by police and systemic racism continues, 15-time GRAMMY Award-winning singer/songwriter/producer Keys has not only joined the chorus of those who are demanding justice, but has also channeled those feelings into a haunting new ballad, “Perfect Way to Die,” out today.

Reflections from Djs Rearranging Relations and Improvising Continuity
Critical Studies in Improvisation / Études critiques en improvisation, Vol. 14, No. 2–3 #djlife During the Pandemic: Reflections from DJs Rearranging Relations and Improvising Continuity Mark V. Campbell and Ayşe Barut Across multiple social media platforms, the hashtag #djlife has offered a glimpse into what DJs do in both their online and offline lives. Some DJs post their remixes, others post their practice sessions or their latest booking. Globally, as nightclubs closed their doors and festivals cancelled their 2020 editions in response to COVID-19, DJs were forced to reconsider how to maintain their livelihoods. Like most performers in popular culture, the DJ’s public visibility is tied to their continued relevance, so with two major arenas—festivals and nightclubs—closed, DJs had to quickly find a way to engage their fans. For many DJs, livestreaming themselves mixing records became a way to continue connecting with their fans. While several DJs were already livestreaming, such as DJ Mel Boogie on her Toronto-based radio show Studio B on Vibe 105 FM, many more delved into streaming for the first time during the pandemic. Platforms such as Facebook and Instagram became the go-to sites for various kinds of livestream events during the pandemic. Verzuz, a visual webcast series presented, created, and launched by multi-platinum producers Timbaland and Swizz Beatz at the end of March 2020, quickly established viewership records as it went viral. Each Verzuz online event features two prominent recording artists squaring off “against” each other in a friendly competition, each sharing their esteemed catalogues. With high profile artists in events such as Jill Scott vs.

Basquiat and the Bayou,’ the No
The Times-Picayune October 20, 2014 GAGOSIAN GALLERY ‘Basquiat and the Bayou,’ the No. 1 Prospect.3 art festival stop in New Orleans Doug MacCash Franklin Sirmans, artistic director, Prospect.3 international art festival in New Orleans (Photo by Doug MacCash / NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune) Though he died at age 27 in 1988, artist Jean-Michel Basquiat remains among the brightest of American art stars. For a short time, he was a street artist in New York’s burgeoning 1970s graffiti scene. His tag, SAMO, became a graffiti icon. Not long after, Basquiat climbed to the highest rungs of the rarified Manhattan art world, eventually even collaborating on paintings with pop legend Andy Warhol. His celebrity was almost unparalleled among visual artists. His expressionist paintings now hang in museums across the globe and sell for tens of millions. Reebok recently released a line of athletic shoes decorated with Basquiat images. A suite of nine of Basquiat’s artworks based on Southern themes has been assembled for the first time ever on the Ogden Museum of Southern Art’s fifth floor. The exhibit, “Basquiat and the Bayou,” is certain to be the most popular stop during the Prospect.3 art festival that opens Oct. 25 and continues through Jan. 25, 2015. Franklin Sirmans, the artistic director of Prospect.3, has studied Basquiat for years. During a visit to the Ogden on Saturday (Oct. 18), Sirmans explained the amazing persistence of the artist’s popularity. Basquiat, as part of the New York graffiti and club scene in the 1970s and ‘80s, became a link to the beginnings of hip-hop culture, Sirmans said.

DMX Immortalized by Family, Friends
ARAB TIMES, MONDAY, APRIL 26, 2021 NEWS/FEATURES 13 People & Places Film ‘Historic gains’ Oscar slate holds ‘fi rsts’ for Asians By Lindsey Bahr t may be hard to believe that there are still many I“firsts” left to check off after 93 years of the Acad- emy Awards, and yet this year there were a handful for Asian actors and filmmakers. Steven Yeun (“Minari”) became the fi rst Asian American actor to be nominated for best actor. Riz Ahmed (“Sound of Metal”) is the fi rst Muslim to be nominated for best actor. It’s the fi rst time that there are two best actor candidates of Asian heritage. Youn Yuh-jung (“Minari”) is the fi rst Korean woman to be nominated for any acting award. “Nomadland’s” Chloé Zhao is the fi rst Asian woman to be nominated for best director. And, with direc- tor Lee Issac Chung ’s direct- ing nomination for “Minari,” it’s also the fi rst time there are two Asian nominees in that race. The historic gains spotlight where the organization has made progress and where there is still work to do, especially Ahmed after a year in which Asian Americans were increasingly targeted in racist attacks. Nancy Yuen, author of the book “Reel Inequality: Hollywood Actors and Racism,” said the nominations this year are exciting. The actors are being recognized for roles, Yuen said, “That are not demeaning, that aren’t fi tting into stereotypes that are problematic. They are fully complex human beings.” That hasn’t always been the case for Asian actors who have broken through to the Oscars.

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.
