While “artists” like Soulja Boy and Chief Keef have reason to worry, lyrically dexterous rappers are experiencing a renaissance. Spearheading this movement of talent-first rappers is Earl Sweatshirt of the Odd Future crew, underground rap’s greatest talent and secret weapon. Earl (Thebe Kgositsile) just released his debut studio album Doris, his first substantial work since his return to the spotlight. At the tender age of 16, the L.A. native released his eponymous mix-tape that turned quite a few heads – first due to his immense talent and young age, then due to his lyrics rife with stomach-churning violence. Upon its release, Earl had virtually vanished – his mother sent him to an at-risk youth camp in Samoa, which left crowds shouting “Free Earl” at concerts, fueling the towering hype and mystery that his mix-tape had garnered. Since his return a year ago, he’s had a few excellent guest spots – a verse on Frank Ocean’s Grammy-winning Channel Orange, a verse on the posse track “Oldie,” and a verse on Captain Murphy’s (a.k.a.

    THE THEME OF THE WISE AND FOOLISH VIRGINS AS PART OF THE LAST JUDGEMENT ICONOGRAPHY IN FLANDERS AND ITALY IN THE LATE 15TH AND THE 16TH CENTURIES Josephine Mary Alexander A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of MPhil at the University of St Andrews 1981 Full metadata for this item is available in St Andrews Research Repository at: http://research-repository.st-andrews.ac.uk/ Please use this identifier to cite or link to this item: http://hdl.handle.net/10023/15249 This item is protected by original copyright ABSTRACT The parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins is told in Matthew's Gospel, Ch.25, v1-13, as an allegory of the Last Judgement. This thesis sets out to examine firstly, how closely the parable is related to the iconography of the Last Judgement in the art of the 15th and 16th centuries; secondly to demonstrate how its inter­ pretation came to be broadened by association with other biblical themes, themselves part of the Last Judgement iconography. Part I traces the origins and develop­ ment of the theme from early Christian times to the 15th century. In these early sources the artistic tradition of linking the parable to the Last Judgement was first established; the Wise and Foolish Virgins were also linked with Ecclesia and Synagogue and with the Virtues and Vices; and the typological tradition of biblical illustration broadened the theme further by pairing it with other biblical feasts. Appendix I is a handlist of the Wise and Foolish Virgins up till the late 15th century and it illustrates how popular the theme had become by the Middle Ages.

She was out and about, ferrying people around while worrying that she’d be ticketed by cops who’d ordered folks to stay home.

Most gathered around in Morgan View and campus dorms watching TV, playing games, eating, surfing the net—and in general enjoying two unexpected days off. Morgan State survived the storm just fine.

Her concerns seemed less arcane, her presentation more appealingly worked out; as Guy Scarpetta put it in he Nouvel Observateur (May 19, 1980), she now intro- duced into "theoretical rigor an effective measure of seduction." Actually, no sudden change has taken place: the features that are noticeable in Powers of Horror were already in evidence in several earlier essays, some of which have been translated in Desire in Language (Columbia University Press, 1980).

    AFROPESSIMISM VS. RHYME AS BLACKNESS PRAXIS Cahron Cross EDITORS’ NOTE: Cross’s original rap, linked here, is followed by a discussion of key themes and analysis of Earl Sweatshirt’s poetics. Afropessimism is, as Frank B. Wilderson writes, “less of a theory and more of a metatheory” that argues “Blacks are not Human subjects, but are instead structurally inert props.” It is a theory about theory that identifies anti-Black violence at the core of all Western theoretical frameworks, and furthermore, identifies the central pillar of what we know as civil society, constituting an ontological or “social death” of Blackness. For Wilderson, this death cannot be cured by liberative strategies built within a world of apriori anti-Blackness, and this includes Black artistic performance which obscures Black reality. But, as Kevin Eubanks explains, “Hip Hop exposes these structures [of violence], eectively mapping the edge of a claustrophobic boundary that separates black social life from white civil society.” Eubanks responds to Wilderson by reframing hip hop as a sort of counter-performance or Blackness in practice, and “in voicing the limits of its own performance, Hip Hop’s awareness generates a threatening and viable counter-position over and against those relations of domination in which it knows it is caught up.” Through this turn toward self knowledge and direct reflection, Eubanks argues, Blackness resurrects itself from social death and reconfigures afro-pessimism into optimism through “radical armation of a blackened world.” To reclaim their Blackness and agency in an anti-Black world, rappers employ various poetic techniques, simultaneously displaying and reimagining the limits of structure.

    Tyler, the Creator and a Perfect Circle Ready for Northside

    2017-10-31 09:59 CET Tyler, The Creator and A Perfect Circle ready for NorthSide Sleaford Mods and Aurora will join them as the sale of one-day tickets starts Next year's festivals season was already kicked off in September with the announcement of five strong acts for NorthSide 2018, and now four more international acts are added that will ensure the line-up includes rock, hip hop, electronica, and punk. Tyler, The Creator Tyler Gregory Okonma was only 16 when he together with five friends formed the hip-hop collective Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All. The innovative group later became the home of Frank Ocean and Earl Sweatshirt, who both contributed to the group's only official release from 2012. At this point Tyler, The Creator’s solo career was already in full swing, because of the success of the single "Sandwitches" and the anarchist debut album "Goblins". Earlier this year Pitchfork called his latest album “Flower Boy” his “most accomplished album” yet and praised the rapper for revealing a more sincere and mature side. Tyler, The Creator is at an artistic peak right now and with his amazing ability to deliver extremely energetic shows, we expect we will witness something unique when hits the stage at NorthSide. Tyler, The Creator will play Saturday June 9th at NorthSide 2018 A Perfect Circle The American guitarist Billy Howerdel played a bunch of his songs for Maynard James Keenan in the mid 90's, which left the Tool-singer so excited that he formed the band A Perfect Circle with Howerdel.
