  • The Life & Rhymes of Jay-Z, an Historical Biography
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE LIFE & RHYMES OF JAY-Z, AN HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY: 1969-2004 Omékongo Dibinga, Doctor of Philosophy, 2015 Dissertation directed by: Dr. Barbara Finkelstein, Professor Emerita, University of Maryland College of Education. Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore the life and ideas of Jay-Z. It is an effort to illuminate the ways in which he managed the vicissitudes of life as they were inscribed in the political, economic cultural, social contexts and message systems of the worlds which he inhabited: the social ideas of class struggle, the fact of black youth disempowerment, educational disenfranchisement, entrepreneurial possibility, and the struggle of families to buffer their children from the horrors of life on the streets. Jay-Z was born into a society in flux in 1969. By the time Jay-Z reached his 20s, he saw the art form he came to love at the age of 9—hip hop— become a vehicle for upward mobility and the acquisition of great wealth through the sale of multiplatinum albums, massive record deal signings, and the omnipresence of hip-hop culture on radio and television. In short, Jay-Z lived at a time where, if he could survive his turbulent environment, he could take advantage of new terrains of possibility. This dissertation seeks to shed light on the life and development of Jay-Z during a time of great challenge and change in America and beyond. THE LIFE & RHYMES OF JAY-Z, AN HISTORICAL BIOGRAPHY: 1969-2004 An historical biography: 1969-2004 by Omékongo Dibinga Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2015 Advisory Committee: Professor Barbara Finkelstein, Chair Professor Steve Klees Professor Robert Croninger Professor Derrick Alridge Professor Hoda Mahmoudi © Copyright by Omékongo Dibinga 2015 Acknowledgments I would first like to thank God for making life possible and bringing me to this point in my life.

  • Book De Prensa
    BOOK DE PRENSA JURADOS CAMI Con tan solo 21 años, Camila Gallardo se ha convertido en uno de los talentos jóvenes más exitosos y con mayor proyección a nivel internacional. Su interés por la música nació cuando tenía 6 años. Un video grabado por su padre, en el que Camila interpretaba “Gracias a la vida” de Violeta Parra, y que fue subido a YouTube, comenzó a hacerla conocida a los 14 años. Su salto a la fama lo dio mientras participaba en la primera temporada de la versión chilena del programa busca talentos “The Voice”, donde finalmente obtuvo el segundo lugar. En aquella ocasión, fue apadrinada por quien fue su coach, Luis Fonsi, quien escribió y produjo su primer single “Más de la mitad”. Debido a su éxito, se convirtió en la interprete más `stremeada´ en Spotify, alcanzó el #1 del chart de radios de artistas nacionales y logró ser single de Platino Digital. Desde entonces, la carrera de Camila Gallardo se ha llenado de elogios y éxitos. En 2017 participó en la Obertura del 58º Festival de la Canción de Viña Del Mar, donde fue parte del homenaje a Violeta Parra, en el centenario de su natalicio. Sus singles, “Abrázame” y “Un poco más de frío” se transformaron en hits alcanzando una importante rotación en las radios nacionales y millones de descargas en las plataformas digitales de música y gran número de visitas en YouTube. Camila ha protagonizado campañas publicitarias, ha participado de innumerables programas de televisión y ha cantado ante miles de personas en sus conciertos realizados a lo largo de todo Chile.

  • TUULETAR Tules, Maas, Vedes, Taivaal (Fire, Earth, Water, Sky) (Bafe's Factory)
    TUULETAR Tules, Maas, Vedes, Taivaal (Fire, Earth, Water, Sky) (Bafe's Factory) Among the most promising pop vocal groups in Finland and Scandinavia today—the modern girl-group sound of Tuuletar comes alive on their much anticipated first album Tules, Maas, Vedes, Taivaal. The eight song CD was superbly recorded and produced at Liquid 5th studios based in North Carolina. Visiting and performing in New York on the way back to Finland, Tuuletar can't wait to bring their “Folk-Hop” sound — accapella vocals all sung in their native Finnish—to the attention of music fans World Wide. The skillful production by the Liquid 5th team shines a bright light on Tuuletar’s phenomenal pop vocal approach. For music listeners challenged by the unusual complexities of the Finnish language, Tuuletar’s album title translates to “Fire, Earth, Water, Sky”, with each group member representing a different element or sign. At the core of the Tuuletar sound are four accomplished singers—Sini Koskelainen, Piia Säilynoja, Johanna Kyykoski and the band’s human Beat-Boxer / singer Venla Ilona Blom. With Venla supplying the percussive beat-boxing sounds, and the impressive production of Liquid 5th putting on the sheen, Tuuletar’s vocal arrangements are fully realized on their CD debut. Commenting on the unique Tuuletar sound in the following interview, Sini Koskelainen tells mwe3.com, “Beat-boxing is a form of vocal percussion primarily involving the art of mimicking drum machines using one’s mouth, lips, tongue and voice. The folk-hop sound blends Finnish folk music with hip-hop, electronic music and world music.” The perfect showcase for their unique talents as a group, the debut Tuuletar album is filled with appealing vocal harmonies yet the music is also quite experimental sounding.

    TAKING CHARGE OF WHAT YOU CAN: A COVID-19 TOOLKIT COMMUNITY ADDICTION AND MENTAL HEALTH - SUNRIDGE Date Issued: 04/01/2020 Prepared by Vanessa Chong, Ph.D., R, Psych. Contributors Karen Lane, RN Erin Moss, Ph.D., R. Psych. Artwork Marla Wirasinghe (cover page, pgs. 1-2) COVID-19 TOOLKIT 1 A World in Crisis The Covid-19 epidemic has drastically changed the way we live, work, and connect each other in a very short period of time. As a world, we are experiencing a collective crisis, the likes of which most of us have never encountered. Right now it is NORMAL to be experiencing a whole host of emotions, including anxiety, anger, sadness, and uncertainty. Our minds and our bodies are closely connected, so it is also likely that you are losing sleep and experiencing other physical symptoms, such as muscle tension, aches and pains, headaches, and low energy. WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER! On one hand, this means that everyone in the world is going through a really awful time. That sucks! But this also means that we will get through this together, by collaborating, connecting, and supporting one another. As a species, humans are really good at overcoming adversity. How Will This Toolkit Help? We all need to find a sense of control right now. This toolkit is designed to help you focus on the parts of your life that you can take charge of and stop spending energy on the things you cannot control. The Anxiety Onion You can think of anxiety as an onion.

PROLOGUE Sidelines of chairs neatly divide the center field and a large stage stands erect. At its center, there is a stately podium flanked by disciplined men wearing the militaristic suits of the Fruit of Islam, a visible security squad. This is Ford Field, usually known for housing the Detroit Lions football team, but on this occasion it plays host to a different gathering and sentiment. The seats are mostly full, both on the floor and in the stands, but if you look closely, you’ll find that this audience isn’t the standard sporting fare: the men are in smart suits, the women dress equally so, in long white dresses, gloves, and headscarves.
