Don't be late Break the weight I'm the marvelous mate Dave, that's my name Gonna go by the flow Gonna play the game Gonna roll the dice - once or twice Pushing on a feeling nice, you got me right Me and the guys, yeah - busting in time When I turned my life, to a life of rhyme Hold on tight, we need the sound to survive. If this is true, I thought then, what will I think Will I stay but rather I would get away I'm scared that I won't find a thing. And afraid that I'll turn out to be alone, but I I have to learn, have to try, have to trust. I have to cry Have to see, have to know that I can be myself. Pull up the shots So we come dancing down! Bit a bad boy, yeah! Take the good with the bad, the rough with the smooth You've got everything to gain and nothing to lose Bit a bad boy, pass the mic. Hold on tight, we need the sound to survive. I have to learn, have to try, have to trust. I have to cry Have to see, have to know that I can be myself. We never stop Gonna go by the flow We'll never get enough Gonna make you flyyyy. In fact, this tune is gonna be massive You got me right, hold on tight! Yeah! Hold on tight! Take the good with the bad, the rough with the smooth. You've got everything to gain and nothing to lose Hold on tight We need the sound to survive. I have to learn, have to try, have to trust.

Cassie’s life has been looking on the up and up lately. Not only has she gotten married, and has become a mother of two in the last two years, but the singer has also revealed that she is now an independent artist. On Wednesday, May 19, she appeared as a guest on Ciara’s “Level Up Radio” on Apple Music, where she talked about where her music career stands currently. Cassie, who ended her decades-long relationship with Diddy , who is also the owner of Bad Boy Records, said, “I left Bad Boy. I was able to get out of my deal. So now I’m independent.” She confessed that the decision to get out of her contract is “just very different from the start.” The 34-year-old had been working with the record label for some time, releasing her first hit single “Me & U” and her album with the company in 2006. Cassie Ventura and Sean “Diddy” Combs attend the Heavenly Bodies: Fashion & The Catholic Imagination Costume Institute Gala at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 7, 2018 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/Getty Images for The Hollywood Reporter) “It’s so different. And I mean, even now I’m just in a different place in my life,” she said. Within two months of ending her long-term relationship with Diddy, Cassie began dating her personal trainer Alex Fine in early 2019. By June 2019, the pair announced that they were pregnant with their first child. The couple wasted no time because by August they were engaged, and, in September, they said their “I Dos.” Cassie went on to explain why being autonomous is “the place to be.” She said, “You could do whatever you want. You could wake up tomorrow and be like, ‘Okay, I want to record four records. And then put them out and it’s mine. And what you going to say.” Ciara agreed, knowing exactly how Cassie feels. In 2019, Ciara launched her own record label called Beauty Marks Entertainment, and, thanks to her husband, Russell Wilson, she has ownership over her masters. She told Cassie, “And you don’t feel the pressure of like having to wait on if someone’s going to like something or have to wait on someone else to make a decision for you. You get to make the decision for yourself. And that’s true girl empowerment right there.” Cassie hasn’t said if she is planning to release another album anytime soon, but, for now, it looks like she is continuing to enjoy her new life as a mom and wife.

  • The Miseducation of Hip-Hop Dance: Authenticity, and the Commodification of Cultural Identities
    The Miseducation of Hip-Hop dance: Authenticity, and the commodification of cultural identities. E. Moncell Durden., Assistant Professor of Practice University of Southern California Glorya Kaufman School of Dance Introduction Hip-hop dance has become one of the most popular forms of dance expression in the world. The explosion of hip-hop movement and culture in the 1980s provided unprecedented opportunities to inner-city youth to gain a different access to the “American” dream; some companies saw the value in using this new art form to market their products for commercial and consumer growth. This explosion also aided in an early downfall of hip-hop’s first dance form, breaking. The form would rise again a decade later with a vengeance, bringing older breakers out of retirement and pushing new generations to develop the technical acuity to extraordinary levels of artistic corporeal genius. We will begin with hip-hop’s arduous beginnings. Born and raised on the sidewalks and playgrounds of New York’s asphalt jungle, this youthful energy that became known as hip-hop emerged from aspects of cultural expressions that survived political abandonment, economic struggles, environmental turmoil and gang activity. These living conditions can be attributed to high unemployment, exceptionally organized drug distribution, corrupt police departments, a failed fire department response system, and Robert Moses’ building of the Cross-Bronx Expressway, which caused middle and upper-class residents to migrate North. The South Bronx lost 600,000 jobs and displaced more than 5,000 families. Between 1973 and 1977, and more than 30,000 fires were set in the South Bronx, which gave rise to the phrase “The Bronx is Burning.” This marginalized the black and Latino communities and left the youth feeling unrepresented, and hip-hop gave restless inner-city kids a voice.

  • Industry Power Player Malcolm Miles Knows the Music Business Inside
    Industry power player Malcolm Miles knows the music business inside and out. In 1997 he began as a promotions intern on the street team at New York’s Bad Boy Records and soon found himself in a highly coveted position at Mix Show Radio. Roughly a year later he accepted a new position, this time as the National Director of Promotions at Bad Boy. Here, Malcolm is credited with breaking some of the 90s most successful records including Carl Thomas’ I Wish, which spent six weeks in the Billboard number one spot and 112’s Peaches & Cream, which earned the group a Grammy nomination and remained in the Billboard Top 40 for twenty-five weeks. Malcolm’s keen ear and promotional expertise was instrumental to the success and development of many Bad Boy acts including: Black Rob, Shyne, Faith Evans, Mase, G-Dep, Puff Daddy, and the late, great, Notorious B.I.G. In the year 2000 while many people anxiously anticipated a technological crisis Malcolm was comfortably settling into position as Senior Director of Promotions at Clive Davis' newly cultivated label, J Records. Malcolm's unwavering dedication to excellence contributed to the climate of success at the label, which soon began to flourish. Malcolm worked closely with Olivia, the label’s first artist, Maroon 5, Wyclef Jean, Luther Vandross, Angie Stone, Jimmy Cozier, and Alicia Keys whose debut album, Songs in A Minor, earned five Grammy Awards and international multi-platinum status. Malcolm continued his work with Alicia on her second album, The Diary of Alicia Keys, which became the third most successful album of the decade, and her second album to debut at number one.

  • The Effects of Hip-Hop and Rap on Young Women in Academia
    The Effects of Hip-Hop and Rap on Young Women in Academia by Sandra C Zichermann A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education Sociology in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Sandra C Zichermann 2013 The Effects of Hip-Hop and Rap on Young Women in Academia Sandra C Zichermann Doctor of Education Sociology in Education University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This thesis investigates the rise of the cultures and music of hip-hop and rap in the West and its effects on its female listeners and fans, especially those in academia. The thesis consists of two parts. First I conducted a content analysis of 95 lyrics from the book, Hip-Hop & Rap: Complete Lyrics for 175 Songs (Spence, 2003). The songs I analyzed were performed by male artists whose lyrics repeated misogynist and sexist messages. Second, I conducted a focus group with young female university students who self-identify as fans of hip-hop and/or rap music. In consultation with my former thesis supervisor, I selected women enrolled in interdisciplinary programmes focused on gender and race because they are equipped with an academic understanding of the potential damage or negative effects of anti-female or negative political messaging in popular music. My study suggests that the impact of hip-hop and rap music on young women is both positive and negative, creating an overarching feeling of complexity for some young female listeners who enjoy music that is infused with some lyrical messages they revile.
