Baka’s no long talk. arrives amidst his live tour dates in the UK as support on the Assassination Vacation arena-tour with Drake. It is also the first offering from the Toronto native since his debut mixtape 4Milli was released in 2018 on OVO Sound/Warner Bros. Records.

THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION ARTS & SCIENCES “I THOUGHT ABOUT KILLING YOU”: CONSIDERING THE UTILITY OF RHETORICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL CRITICAL APPROACHES TO KANYE WEST’S YE CORY N. STEINLE SPRING 2020 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Communication Arts and Sciences and Labor and Employment Relations with honors in Communication Arts and Sciences Reviewed and approved* by the following: Bradford Vivian Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences Thesis Supervisor Lori Bedell Associate Teaching Professor in Communication Arts & Sciences Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This paper examines the merits of intrinsic and extrinsic critical approaches to hip-hop artifacts. To do so, I provide both a neo-Aristotelian and biographical criticism of three songs from ye (2018) by Kanye West. Chapters 1 & 2 consider Roland Barthes’ The Death of the Author and other landmark papers in rhetorical and literary theory to develop an intrinsic and extrinsic approach to criticizing ye (2018), evident in Tables 1 & 2. Chapter 3 provides the biographical antecedents of West’s life prior to the release of ye (2018). Chapters 4, 5, & 6 supply intrinsic (neo-Aristotelian) and extrinsic (biographical) critiques of the selected artifacts. Each of these chapters aims to address the concerns of one of three guiding questions: which critical approaches prove most useful to the hip-hop consumer listening to this song? How can and should the listener construct meaning? Are there any improper ways to critique and interpret this song? Chapter 7 discusses the variance in each mode of critical analysis from Chapters 4, 5, & 6.

FADER OVO Golden Child VICE PARTYNEXTDOOR Is OVO's Next
FADER OVO golden child VICE PARTYNEXTDOOR is OVO’s next experiment for how to make the music industry work. This plan of releasing songs, touring, and not doing much else is ambitious in a music landscape that seems to demand artists always stay in the spotlight, but it’s also working. There’s very little money to be made in the music industry in 2014 outside of touring, selling your talents as a featured artist, and having your music licensed for car commercials. The team over at October’s Very Own know this, and they’re priming Brathwaite to be a valuable part of their label by adopting a perfected version of a blueprint that has failed them before with The Weeknd and the XO collective. PartyNextDoor carries on this trend of singing about the darker aspects of life, but aims his focus on the violent and romantic life of gang parties instead of after parties, putting the narrative on the drug dealer instead of the drug taker. NEW YORK TIMES A burlier, less emotionally icy version of the Weeknd THE WASHINGTON POST PartyNextDoor has explored the type of sullen, synth‐swaddled R&B mastered by Drake and his former collaborator the Weeknd. This sense of musical deja vu dominated the night, whether in lyrics about popping champagne, blowing money fast and riding through the city, or in samples of Miguel and Dru Hill. GRANTLAND It’s fitting, then, that Brathwaite is our first truly post‐Weeknd artist, doubling down on the bone‐chilling Toronto nihilism that catapulted Abel Tesfaye to PBR&B stardom in 2011.

DVSN SHARE NEW STAND-OUT TRACK “NO CRYIN” FEAT. FUTURE VIA OVO SOUND LISTEN HERE DOWNLOAD ARTWORK HERE October 30, 2019 (Toronto, Ont.) – Today, OVO Sound’s lauded R&B duo DVSN, composed of singer Daniel Daley and Grammy Award-winning producer Nineteen85, release a scorching-hot new track titled “No Cryin” featuring Future. “No Cryin” arrives after two previous songs from the group were shared earlier this year titled “Miss Me” and “In Between.” Both of which DVSN performed at their unforgettable Coachella set back in April. “No Cryin” arrives as a precursor for new music to come from the duo, who have been in the studio diligently working on an anticipated follow-up album to their acclaimed 2017 LP Morning After. DVSN are the torchbearers of classic R&B with a distinctly progressive take on the genre and “No Cryin” delivers on a whole new level for the group. "After 60 shows on the road together for the 'Summer Sixteen Tour,' we've linked with Future to bring fans new music," Nineteen85 shared. "Since producing the outro on Future’s album, 'THE WIZRD,' we're definitely not strangers in the studio. The timing couldn’t have been better for this one!" OVO Sound also announces a new partnership with Google for Google's whats.new campaign under music.new kicking off with DVSN's "No Cryin" featuring Future. Google's '.new' domain extension is a way for people to perform online actions in one quick step via shortcuts. To celebrate the launch of music.new, fans will be able to enter their own thoughts into the word bubble creative, and create personalized song artwork for DVSN's "No Cryin."

Dvsn Share 'Amusing Her Feelings' Project on Ovo Sound
DVSN SHARE AMUSING HER FEELINGS PROJECT ON OVO SOUND LISTEN HERE A 4-SONG CONTINUATION OF CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED ALBUM A MUSE IN HER FEELINGS FEATURING “HE SAID” WITH MIGUEL DOWNLOAD COVER ART HERE January 15, 2021 (Toronto, Ont.) – Today, Toronto R&B duo dvsn (singer Daniel Daley and GRAMMY® Award-winning producer Nineteen85) have released Amusing Her Feelings on OVO Sound, the sultry 4-song continuation of their lauded album A Muse In Her Feelings. Additionally, the project arrives with a new single titled “He Said” featuring Miguel. Last week, the group unveiled “Use Somebody,” a re-imagination of Kings of Leon’s hit songs “Use Somebody” and “Sex On Fire,” which is included on the project. The soulful “Blessings” also makes an appearance after arriving with the announcement of the project back in December. Amusing Her Feelings continues building on the revolutionary sonic landscape dvsn has cultivated in the R&B space over the past two years. From bedroom balladry to cross-over anthems, the new project exemplifies the pairs ability to push the envelope. They waste no time doing so as the opening track, “She Said,” takes flight almost immediately. “Blessings” offers a gospel approach while both “He Said” and “Use Somebody” utilize guitar laden production. All inspirations are fair game. With Amusing Her Feelings, dvsn not only play on an alternative title from their A Muse In Her Feelings album, but are charting the road less traveled while taking their fans along for the ride. They are also one of the first artists to do a week of safely executed sold out drive-in theater shows during the pandemic.

“My Logo Is Branded on Your Skin”: the Wu-Tang Clan, Authenticity, Black Masculinity, and the Rap Music Industry
“MY LOGO IS BRANDED ON YOUR SKIN”: THE WU-TANG CLAN, AUTHENTICITY, BLACK MASCULINITY, AND THE RAP MUSIC INDUSTRY By Ryan Alexander Huey A THESIS Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History – Master of Arts 2014 ABSTRACT “MY LOGO IS BRANDED ON YOUR SKIN”: THE WU-TANG CLAN, AUTHENTICITY, BLACK MASCULINITY, AND THE RAP MUSIC INDUSTRY By Ryan Alexander Huey The rap group, the Wu-Tang Clan came out of a turbulent period of time in both the rap music industry and American society in the early 1990s. Lawsuits over sampling in rap music forced producers to rethink the ways they made music while crack cocaine and the War on Drugs wreaked havoc in urban communities across the nation, as it did in the Clan’s home borough of Staten Island, New York. Before the formation of the group, Gary “GZA” Grice, had managed to land a recording contract as a solo artist, but his marketing was mismanaged and his career stagnated. He returned in 1992 as one of the nine member collective, who billed themselves as kung fu movie buffs melding low-fi, eerie productions with realistic raps about ghetto life. Drawing from the vibrant underground rap scene of New York City in the 1970s and 1980s, Brooklyn’s rich African American chess tradition, the teachings of the Five Percenters, and the cult following for Hong Kong action cinema, the Clan became a huge hit across the country. Each member fashioned a unique masculine identity for himself, bolstering their hardcore underground image while pushing the boundaries of acceptable expressions of manhood in rap music.
