I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing. It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive. 5 It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it, or fade it, or fix it. 10 I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own; if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, remember the limitations of being human.

FRANNY'S CANDIES “I roll the Kettledrum candy in my mouth.” Franny pictures herself chewing on Boston Fruit Slices and her jaw flexes automatically. “Chewy wedges taste lemon and lime and go BOOM-bah-BOOM when I bite into one.” She adds, “When I unwrap a second Kettledrum out of its tight parchment, I examine the sour and sugar-copper rind. They are better enjoyed in pairs. Tomás, why aren’t Kettledrum candies hard? Like Lifesavers or Butterscotches? When they clink against your teeth, they could sound like a snare or a top hat. I can hear a soft bass rumble a tympani symphony deep within me. I swear, the Kettledrums make my voice go baritone when I sing BOOM-bah-BOOM after eating one. It’s true: I’ve tried it!” Franny confesses this to me under her gummy-bear breath and I agree unconditionally the way a best friend must. We come here because most of her schoolmates do not make their way down the block to Doña Dolce.

  • Meet the Tempe Playlist Musicians
    MEET THE TEMPE PLAYLIST MUSICIANS Adele Etheridge Woodson Song: Morena (Morena feat. Rosita) Visit Website Morena was part of my EP, Sunday in the Park, that was commissioned by the city of Tempe! I wanted to create a fun, catchy track with Portuguese elements to bring fresh variety to the EP! I am a freelance composer and violinist born and raised in Tempe. I feel all of my artistic success is because of the local community and artists I am surrounded by. I currently compose music for film, arrange strings for other bands, and produce. Alex King Song: Dialogue (Inner) Visit Spotify After a spiraling last year and a half I was just trying to be honest with myself about what happened and where I was going. The results were less clear than where they started. Maybe? Not sure… I grew up here. I love this city. Although all the other places I've traveled too and have lived hold dear places in my heart, Tempe will always be my true love! I play drums in a loud band around Tempe infrequently. Alyssa G Song: Let Go Visit Instagram I was in a long and draining relationship for years and when I decided to move on and break it off, I found myself in tears in my friend’s dorm, guitar in hand, and humming to a few chords. I decided to write, record, and complete the song to share with others, in hope that they could see the light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to hard breakups.

  • Hip-Hop Realness and the White Performer Mickey Hess
    Critical Studies in Media Communication Vol. 22, No. 5, December 2005, pp. 372Á/389 Hip-hop Realness and the White Performer Mickey Hess Hip-hop’s imperatives of authenticity are tied to its representations of African-American identity, and white rap artists negotiate their place within hip-hop culture by responding to this African-American model of the authentic. This article examines the strategies used by white artists such as Vanilla Ice, Eminem, and the Beastie Boys to establish their hip- hop legitimacy and to confront rap music’s representations of whites as socially privileged and therefore not credible within a music form where credibility is often negotiated through an artist’s experiences of social struggle. The authenticating strategies of white artists involve cultural immersion, imitation, and inversion of the rags-to-riches success stories of black rap stars. Keywords: Hip-hop; Rap; Whiteness; Racial Identity; Authenticity; Eminem Although hip-hop music has become a global force, fans and artists continue to frame hip-hop as part of African-American culture. In his discussion of Canadian, Dutch, and French rap Adam Krims (2000) noted the prevailing image of African-American hip-hop as ‘‘real’’ hip-hop.1 African-American artists often extend this image of the authentic to frame hip-hop as a black expressive culture facing appropriation by a white-controlled record industry. This concept of whiteÁ/black interaction has led white artists either to imitate the rags-to-riches narratives of black artists, as Vanilla Ice did in the fabricated biography he released to the press in 1990, or to invert these narratives, as Eminem does to frame his whiteness as part of his struggle to succeed as a hip-hop artist.

He is born not for the development of the society alone, but for the development of his self.” • • As teenagers, many of us struggle often with self-identity and knowing who we are and where we belong in this world. Sometimes we even try to pretend to be someone we’re not to feel accepted, like this poem by Charles Finn describes: • • Don't be fooled by me. Don't be fooled by the face I wear for I wear a mask, a thousand masks, masks that I'm afraid to take off, and none of them is me. Pretending is an art that's second nature with me, but don't be fooled, for God's sake don't be fooled. • • I give you the impression that I'm secure, that all is sunny and unruffled with me, within as well as without, that confidence is my name and coolness my game, that the water's calm and I'm in command and that I need no one, but don't believe me.
