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.

  • Hip Hop Club Songs
    Hip Hop Club Songs Did you Know? The credit of coining the term 'Hip-Hop' lies with Keith 'Cowboy' Wiggins, a member of Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. Around 1978, he used to tease his friend who was in the US Army by singing hip/hop/hip/hop. He was mimicking the cadence rhythm of the soldiers. Initially known as Disco Rap, hip-hop music is a stylized download mp3 rocket pro free 2010 rhythmic music form which contains rapping and beat boxing as its elements. This music developed as a part of the 'hip-hop culture' in New York, particularly among the African-Americans. Today, hip hop music has become extremely popular among the masses. With the commercialization of this genre of music, a new era of talent paved its path to give music a new feel and rhythm by using words in the interim as a form of expression. Artists like Snoop Dog, Eminem, Nicki Minaj, Black- Eyed Peas have popularized this particular genre even further. Certain artists, who were known for performing other genres also started experimenting with rap and hip-hop. Couple of such examples would be Beyonce and none other than the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. Another factor that has added to hip-hop's popularity is that this music is ideal for nightclubs and dance floors. So, are you arranging one such party for your friends and wondering which songs to play? Then here is a list of various hip-hop club songs that you can play. ? Baby Don't Do It - Lloyd ? Best Kept Secret - Raheem DeVaughn ? Bedroom Walkin' - Ne-Yo ? Tonight - Jason Derulo ? Almost There - Alicia Keys ? Stillettos And A Tee - Bobby Valentino ? Help Somebody - Maxwell Feat.

Anderson, Principal & CEO Anderson Economic Group, LLC 1555 Watertower Place, Suite 100 East Lansing, Michigan 48823 Tel: (517) 333-6984 Fax: (517) 333-7058 www.AndersonEconomicGroup.com © Anderson Economic Group, LLC, 2013 Permission to reproduce in entirety granted with proper citation. All other rights reserved. Foreword I'm pleased to share with readers of Crain's Detroit Business, as well as with others in the Detroit region, this first-of-its-kind study of the business of music in southeast Michigan. Everyone that grew up in this area knows of the "Motown sound," as well as the heritage of jazz, blues, and rock that has steeped into our culture. Many of us are also aware of the more recent innovations of techno and hip-hop, much of which has roots in Detroit. However, until now there has been no systematic analysis of the business of music in our area. Our Anderson Economic Group consultants have combed census and other business records; examined the geographic pattern of nightclubs and perfor- mance venues; scanned demographic patterns for concentrations of heavy enter- tainment consumers; and even conducted primary research into the days/nights of live music available to metro Detroiters at over two hundred specific bars, taverns, and clubs. What we have assembled is a thorough analysis of an indus- try that has always been important to our culture, but can now also be known for its contributions to our employment and earnings.

    CONTEMPORARYAND.COM #WEARECONTEMPORARYAND C& CONSCIOUS CODES, ANYONE? AN ART MAGAZINE • 2020 • PRINT EDITION NO. 11 CONTEMPORARYAND.COM EDITORIAL “With evidence of coded beaded patterns, communicative frequencies with non-human agencies, and connections to ancient practices, new media can embody new forms of consciousness and expressions of ‘otherness’ that have come to define digital art.” Enos Nyamor Contemporary And (C&) was deliberately founded as an online magazine with the desire for it to be accessible beyond physical distribution boundaries. Free content for readers from Accra to Rio de Janeiro to New York. Accessibility is the bottom line. Connecting people and visualizing their artistic production is what C& has been and is constantly doing. Digital space is the main tool of the global network that creates the content of C&. Digital connections have become even more urgent during recent weeks, in which a pandemic has had and is still having a worldwide impact. This first C& print edition of 2020 focuses on digital arts and their potential for connecting to the past and inventing the future. Enos Nyamor asks how much digital art production in Africa is stereotyped. Artists Natalie Paneng and David Alabo speak more specifically in interviews about their practices. Creative producers Ingrid LaFleur and Daniel Kimotho give insights on cryptocurrency and its ability to increase economic activity and output from African perspectives. Nelly Y. Pinkrah discusses how histories of race, Blackness, and (media) technology have always been intimately intertwined. Finally, Awour Onyango focuses on the Kenyan art scene which is countering the erasure of Kenyans from Nairobi’s tech boom through digital and VR work.

BY NADYA LABI Vincent Smothers at Michigan Reformatory, where he is serving a sentence of fifty to a hundred years. “There’s no atonement,” he says. “I’ve taken people away from people who love them.” PHOTOGRAPH BY ALEC SOTH / MAGNUM incent Smothers thought that it would be a job like any other. In the summer of 2007, he told me, his friend Marzell Black asked him for a Vgun for his mother’s boyfriend. Smothers didn’t sell guns, and he told him so. A few months later, Marzell amended his request, saying, “That dude who was looking for a gun? He asked me how much he would have to pay to kill somebody.” A murder Smothers could handle. “Marzell wasn’t the killing type,” he said. “I told him, ‘That’s not something for you to do. I’ll talk to him and see what this is all about.’ ” Smothers drove Marzell in his black Jeep Commander to a gas station on Detroit’s East Side, the rougher part of a rough city. As they waited in the parking lot, a bald black man opened the rear passenger-side door and got in. It was the boyfriend, whom Smothers knew only as Dave. Staring intently at the back of the seat, he explained that the target was his wife; he was leaving her and didn’t want her to be alone.

  • Amid Trump's Legal Troubles, Two Lawyers' Names Keep Surfacing Together
    April 26, 2018 MySanantonio.com Link to original article: https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/article/Amid-Trump-s-legal-troubles-two-lawyers-names-128 67949.php Amid Trump's legal troubles, two lawyers' names keep surfacing together By Beth Reinhard, Emma Brown and Frances Stead Sellers, The Washington Post The two lawyers' names keep surfacing in tandem, again and again, in the context of deals in which women were paid to keep quiet about their alleged affairs with powerful men. Now, the relationship between Michael Cohen and Keith Davidson is drawing public scrutiny as federal authorities investigating Cohen examine payments made to women whose stories could have damaged Donald Trump's presidential campaign. Davidson is cooperating with the probe and has provided investigators with "certain limited electronic information," according to the lawyer's spokesman. Cohen, Trump's longtime adviser, and Davidson, a Los Angeles lawyer, have crossed paths at least five times in the past two years. In the most recent instance, Cohen collected a fee said to be hundreds of thousands of dollars in a deal Davidson helped orchestrate. New attorneys for Davidson's former clients, Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, both of whom allege they had affairs with Trump years ago, say the relationship between Cohen and Davidson has seemed too cozy. "This is supposed to be an adversarial process," said Daniels' attorney, Michael Avenatti. "These guys should not be in the same bedroom, let alone the same bed." Cohen did not respond to requests for comment. Nor did his lawyers Brent Blakely and Stephen Ryan. In a recent interview with The Washington Post, Davidson rejected the suggestion that his dealings with Cohen were in any way improper, saying they have a "purely professional" relationship and did not meet in person until early 2018.
