  • Music Review Kanye West, Jesus Is King US 2019, Def Jam Recordings
    Andre L. Price Music Review Kanye West, Jesus Is King US 2019, Def Jam Recordings As any emcee should, Kanye West has developed and matured as a produc- er and lyricist since his 2004 triple-platinum debut project, College Dropout. West’s Gospel project, Jesus Is King, is his ninth studio project and the fol- low-up to his June 2018 release, Ye. After delays, Jesus Is King was released on 25 October 2019. For West, openly talking about Jesus in his music is not new, for he rocked the mainstream hip-hop world in 2004 when he re- leased the single “Jesus Walks”, the final single to be released from College Dropout. Jesus Is King features eleven tracks totaling 27 minutes and 4 seconds, which is short for either a secular or gospel hip-hop project.1 Interestingly, significant changes were made to the track listing order on the album. Kim Kardashian-West announced the tracks and order in August 2019, but the list- ing and order released by Kanye West in October 2019 were markedly differ- ent.2 Such a change could suggest an earlier lack of clarity on what the album was going to be. West did promise that Jesus Is King would be “fully immersed in religion […] with lyrics about God, being saved, and minimal cursing”.3 Jesus Is King employs several aspects of Black Christian worship, from mass choir to melodic organ. West takes the best of the Black gospel tradition, in- fusing it with his own lyrical genius to proclaim what God has done for him, which is best expressed on the track “God Is”, a remake of the classic spiritual.

    City.Life.Style. Where City Meets Life and Life Meets Style C1 | January 22-28, 2020 michiganchronicle.com 2010-2020: The Apex of Black Music & Social Media By Trevor W. Coleman II t the end of a decade, and approaching a new, the dominating pres- ence of hip hop and R&B is operating on a new foundation – social Amedia. The influence an artist has on pop culture and music quality almost always coincides with the artist’s presence on social media. When looking back at the songs that will form the popular music for the 2010 decade, such as Drake’s 2016 single Hotline Bling, or this year’s Old Town Road, these songs can’t be mentioned without noting their respective memes and the social media commotion that trailed these songs for months after their releases. The unification of social media and hip hop music is the source of influence in which established and emerging artists benefit. When a song is popular on social media, the artist has all they need to establish a fan base even before recording a full-length album or releasing another single. This year has been the biggest example of rappers emerging from social media: Megan Thee Stallion off the Hot Girl Summer hashtag and Lil Nas X with the buzz of Old Town Road stemming from video-sharing app TikTok earlier this year. When it comes to The influence that these songs have had on pop music throughout 2019 the careers of artists is an example of black social media’s influence on pop culture.

  • He Is KING of KINGS Devotions for the Season of Lent 2018
    He is KING OF KINGS Devotions For the Season of lent 2018 First United Methodist Church Greensburg, Pennsylvania HE IS KING OF KINGS Introduction The Lord says, “The time is coming when I will choose as King a righteous descendant of David. That king will rule wisely and do what is right and just throughout the land. When he is King, the people of Judah will be safe, and the people of Israel will live in peace. He will be called ‘The Lord Our Salvation.’ (Jeremiah 23:5-6) About three centuries ago, Spaniards besieged a small French town, St. Quentin. The city walls were in ruins; fever and famine plagued the peo- ple. One day the Spaniards shot over the walls a shower of arrows to which were attached little slips of parchment promising that if they sur- rendered, their lives and property would be spared. The mayor of the town was a devout Huguenot (French Protestants who followed John Calvin’s reformed theology). For answer, he tied a piece of parchment to a javelin and hurled it back to the Spaniards. On the parchment was the message: “Regem habemus” -- “We have a king!” Christians also can say, “We have a King.” Jesus is our King. We belong to his Kingdom. He is not like other kings, however. He is not just another king. He is different. He is not only king but King of kings. He is not like the ancient Egyptian king, Rameses, whose arrogant motto was inscribed on temples still standing, “I am the greatest.” Jesus is not the kind of king, a savage tyrant, like the king of China who used millions of slaves to build the Great Wall of China, a wall so huge that it can be seen from the moon.

  • Hosanna! Jesus Is King! Life of Jesus, Lesson 13
    Hosanna! Jesus is King! Life of Jesus, Lesson 13 Talk About It: • Share about a time you’ve been to a parade or seen one on television. • Who is a famous person you would like to meet? How would you feel if they showed up in your neighborhood? Read About It: Read this story from Matthew 21:1-11 (from the International Children’s Bible): Jesus and his followers were coming closer to Jerusalem. Jesus sent two of his followers into the town. He said to them, “Go to the town. When you enter it, you will find a donkey tied there with its colt. Untie them and bring them to me. If anyone asks you why you are taking the donkeys, tell him, ‘The Master needs them. He will send them back soon.’” This was to make clear the full meaning of what the prophet said: “Tell the people of Jerusalem, ‘Your king is coming to you. He is gentle and riding on a donkey. He is on the colt of a donkey.’” The followers went and did what Jesus told them to do. They brought the donkey and the colt to Jesus. They laid their coats on the colt, and Jesus sat on it. Many people spread their coats on the road before Jesus. Others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. Some of the people were walking ahead of Jesus. Others were walking behind him. All the people were shouting, “Hosanna! Praise to the Son of David! God bless the One who comes in the name of the Lord! Praise to God in heaven!” Then Jesus went into Jerusalem.

  • In-Class Problems 2
    MATH 100 Section 108 – 2019W In-Class Problem Sheet 2 A. Alperen Bulut October 28, 2019 1 Related Rates Continued Problem 1.1 (Jesus illuminating Yeezus, who is illuminating us). Suppose Jesus is on top of a hill so that He is 60 ft above from the ground. Kanye West, who is 6 ft, is on the ground, being illuminated with His divine knowledge. The horizontal distance between Jesus and Yeezus is 50 ft, and Yeezus is walking away from Jesus with a speed of 5 ft/s so that he can spread the Gospel. We, the mortals on the ground, can gain this wisdom only after it reaches Ye’s mind and gets converted into a gospel record such as Jesus is King. Assume that the divine knowledge behaves just like light (of course). Then how fast is the divine knowledge (or, the shadow of Ye’s head) moving on the ground? Hint: Consider the following diagram. J H Y v h O x A B y Answer: 50/9 ft/s. 1 2 Linear Approximation [f(x) ≈ L(x) = f(a)+f 0(a)(x−a)] Problem 2.1 (A Real Story). When I, AAB, was a sophomore in undergrad, yours truly was taking a course on materials science and engineering. Being the complete idiot I am when it comes to the “real world,” I of course forgot to bring my calculator to the midterm, and realized this only thirty seconds before the exam started. One of the multiple-choice problems was about finding the ratio of electrons that manage to penetrate a slab of material, and I found the answer as (0.998)10.

    His Name Shall Be Called - Mighty God Dr. Tom Pace December 13, 2020 Micah 5:2-5 But you, O Bethlehem of Ephrathah, who are one of the little clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to rule in Israel, whose origin is from of old, from ancient days. Therefore he shall give them up until the time when she who is in labor has brought forth; then the rest of his kindred shall return to the people of Israel. And he shall stand and feed his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God. And they shall live secure, for now he shall be great to the ends of the earth; and he shall be the one of peace. If the Assyrians come into our land and tread upon our soil, we will raise against them seven shepherds and eight installed as rulers. (Micah 5:2-5 (NRSV) Let’s pray together. Gracious God open us up. Open our eyes that we might see and open our ears that we might hear your words in the midst of these words today and open our hearts that we might feel. And then, O Lord, open our hands that we might, in response to your love, serve others. In the name of Christ. Amen. We have some people in our church who are aficionados, or fans, or connoisseurs of Disney World – you know, the Magic Kingdom.
