Mike D’S Top Five: Can’T Miss Shows of April Mike D’s Top Five: Can’t Miss Shows of April Musical Month of April 1. Friday, April 11: WBRU Rock Hunt Finals featuring Jetty, The Rare Occasions, The Stilts; $5; 7pm doors / 8pm show; All ages; The Met, 1005 Main St., Pawtucket, RI. Spring is here, and so is the annual WBRU Rock Hunt finals. The contest is often the shape of the local pop alt rock music scene for the few years to come and has included such winning acts as Monty Are I, Zox, Fairhaven, Rice Cakes and most the recently crowned Torn Shorts. Having correctly predicted the last three winners, here are my 2014 odds. Rare Occasions best fit the WBRU brand and come in at 2 to 1. Jetty are definitely in the hunt, and seem to have a strong following so they are coming in at 4 to 1. The Stilts, like most coming out of Woonsocket, are a long shot, and I would say 10 to 1 chance. There will also be a internet voted band added, but not knowing who it would be, it’s almost impossible to quantify their odds, so here it is anyway. TBA is a 15 to 1 odds chance. And there is a 1 to 1 chance Marc Clarkin reviews the concert without actually going to said concert. 2. Sunday, April 20: Pizza Underground (featuring Macauley Culkin), Baylies Band (20th anniversary show), Six Star General, Guerilla Toss; $12; 7pm doors / 8pm show; All ages; The Met, 1005 Main St., Pawtucket, RI. Finally a band that takes the Velvet Underground tunes and changes the lyrics into pizza-related scenes. And of all people, it has actor Macauley Culkin in the band, a man with whom we now spend every Christmas while watching Home Alone stuck with family. And here he comes with his fellow pizza folk heroes on stoner Americans’ favorite holiday, 4.20 (it’s also Easter). Will they be any good? No idea, but for $12 definitely worth finding out in person. This show is also a celebration of Baylies Band, together for 20 years(?!). I can’t imagine how I was in the same band for two years, let alone what it would be like being in one for 20. Congrats guys! Rhode Island hellraisers Six Star General and Boston’s Guerilla Toss round out the bill. 3. Monday, April 28: TDE Presents ScHoolboy Q (Oxymoron World Tour), Isaiah Rashad, Vince Staples; $22.50 advance / $25 day of; 6pm doors / 7pm show; All ages; Lupo’s, 79 Washington St., Providence, RI. Self proclaimed “Man Of The Year” seems to be actualizing it in the hip-hop world in 2014. His new record Oxymoron opened at number 1 on the Billboard charts and has been getting a lot of critical acclaim from not just the hip-hop blogs and mags, but also from the rock community. Rolling Stone‘s 4 star review went as far as comparing the records beats to Nas’ Illmatic, the greatest hip-hop record of all time. High praise indeed. Top Dawg label mate Isaiah Rashad and Vince Staples open. 4. Tuesday, April 29: 95.5 WBRU presents the Annual Earth Day Concert featuring BLEACHERS; $15 (A portion of the proceeds will benefit the RI Earth Day clean-up); 8pm doors / 9pm show; All ages; The Met, 1005 Main St, Pawtucket, RI. 4.20 isn’t the only holiday we celebrate this month. As part of its yearly campaign to help out the environment, WBRU is bringing Bleachers to the Met for Earth Day awareness. Bleachers is the white hot new project by Jack Antonoff (from the band Fun. / formerly of Steel Train). Their new single “I Want To Get Better” is the hottest self help party jam single of the year! Come check out their Providence debut, and go get a bag and pick up some garbage while you are at it. Unrelated, I saw what I thought were coccoons in the trees of Route 95 north by the zoo. Nope, a series of plastic bags. Gross. 5. Saturday, May 3: Smith & Weeden (CD release), Ravi Shavi, The Sun Parade; $7; 8pm; All ages; As220, 115 Empire St, Providence, RI. This show commemorates the release of Providence’s Smith & Weeden’s self titled debut. I asked Olly about the record and he said, “This record is the culmination of several years of writing and playing shows, both here in Providence and across the country. We recorded it live (but not in front of an audience) so that we could capture the feeling and emotion we get when we play on stage; there was very little overdubbing happening on this record. It was recorded at The Columbus Theatre over a five-day period, and was simultaneously the most rewarding and exhausting experience we’ve had as a band yet.” For an alternative view point from a different band member, Jesse Smith says, “S&W has been slowly climbing to the top of the OK bands in Providence over the past two years. You could almost call them the captain of the B team.. Grab a copy of the CD and you decide: Varsity or JV? Providence garage burners Ravi Shavi and Northampton’s The Sun Parade round out the bill..

  • Williams, Hipness, Hybridity, and Neo-Bohemian Hip-Hop
    HIPNESS, HYBRIDITY, AND “NEO-BOHEMIAN” HIP-HOP: RETHINKING EXISTENCE IN THE AFRICAN DIASPORA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Maxwell Lewis Williams August 2020 © 2020 Maxwell Lewis Williams HIPNESS, HYBRIDITY, AND “NEO-BOHEMIAN” HIP-HOP: RETHINKING EXISTENCE IN THE AFRICAN DIASPORA Maxwell Lewis Williams Cornell University 2020 This dissertation theorizes a contemporary hip-hop genre that I call “neo-bohemian,” typified by rapper Kendrick Lamar and his collective, Black Hippy. I argue that, by reclaiming the origins of hipness as a set of hybridizing Black cultural responses to the experience of modernity, neo- bohemian rappers imagine and live out liberating ways of being beyond the West’s objectification and dehumanization of Blackness. In turn, I situate neo-bohemian hip-hop within a history of Black musical expression in the United States, Senegal, Mali, and South Africa to locate an “aesthetics of existence” in the African diaspora. By centering this aesthetics as a unifying component of these musical practices, I challenge top-down models of essential diasporic interconnection. Instead, I present diaspora as emerging primarily through comparable responses to experiences of paradigmatic racial violence, through which to imagine radical alternatives to our anti-Black global society. Overall, by rethinking the heuristic value of hipness as a musical and lived Black aesthetic, the project develops an innovative method for connecting the aesthetic and the social in music studies and Black studies, while offering original historical and musicological insights into Black metaphysics and studies of the African diaspora.

  • Ta1300 Album Download TA13OO
    ta1300 album download TA13OO. Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs. Buy the album Starting at $12.99. A former member of SpaceGhostPurrp's Raider Klan , Denzel Curry is one of the precursors of the new generation of electro coming out of Florida. Now joined by such wild men as Smokepurrp, Ski Mask Da Slump God or the late XXXTentacion, Denzel has created a complex mix, which has been much-covered by his peers. To sum it up, his music is a mixture of very technical rap in the tradition of Memphis and the Three 6 Mafia and a rather more elevated psychedelic tendency taken from Outkast and the Dungeon Family. A pure product of the SoundCloud generation, he made waves with Nostalgic 64 (2013) and then Imperial (2016). At the age of just 23, Denzel Curry shows a disarming maturity and an unflagging versatility on TA13oo , his most ambitious album to date. TA13OO. The South Florida rapper carves out his own lane within the genre known as SoundCloud rap, displaying considerable versatility as he channels the pain and confusion of youth. Featured Tracks: In the chaotic arena that is SoundCloud rap, Denzel Curry has etched out his own distinct realm. Presumably he doesn’t mind being tagged as a SoundCloud rapper, as murky and hard to define as that term is. It was just in May that Curry went to the mattresses to uphold his version of the genre’s history, using Twitter and interviews to torpedo Smokepurpp’s claim to have fathered the movement.

HIP-HOP’S DIVERSITY AND MISPERCEPTIONS by Andrew Cashman A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for a Degree with Honors (Anthropology) The Honors College University of Maine August 2020 Advisory Committee: Joline Blais, Associate Professor of New Media, Advisor Kreg Ettenger, Associate Professor of Anthropology Christine Beitl, Associate Professor of Anthropology Sharon Tisher, Lecturer, School of Economics and Honors Stuart Marrs, Professor of Music 2020 Andrew Cashman All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The misperception that hip-hop is a single entity that glorifies wealth and the selling of drugs, and promotes misogynistic attitudes towards women, as well as advocating gang violence is one that supports a mainstream perspective towards the marginalized.1 The prevalence of drug dealing and drug use is not a picture of inherent actions of members in the hip-hop community, but a reflection of economic opportunities that those in poverty see as a means towards living well. Some artists may glorify that, but other artists either decry it or offer it as a tragic reality. In hip-hop trends build off of music and music builds off of trends in a cyclical manner.
