It is one of those amazing records that you almost thirst for upon waking up in the morning." -- For the Love of Punk. "While 'at a loss' may seem like par for the course when it comes to The Capitalist Kids’ brisk and catchy pop punk styling, below its surface this latest LP is brimming with new ideas existing as further evidence of their continued evolution. Continuing the tradition of providing pop punk love songs and sardonic socio-political snark, The Capitalist Kids have managed to maintain continuity while still upping their game on this release. pop punk perfection." -- Ovrld.com. ". alternating between perfectly sweet love songs and perfectly insightful songs of social critique. The major difference this time around is the addition of a second guitar player which helps to make the melodies that much more infectious." --Grave Mistake.

Eminem quickly gained popularity in 1999 with his major-label debut album, The Slim Shady LP, which won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. The following album, The Marshall Mathers LP, became the fastest-selling solo album in United States history.[2] It brought Eminem increased popularity, including his own record label, Shady Records, and brought his group project, D12, to mainstream recognition. The Marshall Mathers LP and his third album, The Eminem Show, also won Grammy Awards, making Eminem the first artist to win Best Rap Album for three consecutive LPs. He then won the award again in 2010 for his album Relapse and in 2011 for his album Recovery, giving him a total of 13 Grammys in his career. In 2003, he won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "Lose Yourself" from the film, 8 Mile, in which he also played the lead. "Lose Yourself" would go on to become the longest running No. 1 hip hop single.[3] Eminem then went on hiatus after touring in 2005.

  • Rick Ross – Bio (Port of Miami 2) After Thirteen Triumphant Years Served In
    Rick Ross – Bio (Port of Miami 2) After thirteen triumphant years served in the coliseum of hip hop, Rick Ross has begun his victory lap towards rap legend. The catalyst for the leader of the Maybach Music Group’s longevity is consistency. After introducing himself in 2006 with a classic anthem (“Hustlin’”) and platinum debut (Port of Miami), the Slip-N-Slide franchise player spent the following decade plus dominating as both mogul and Top 10 scribe. While his mighty pen positioned him as peer to southern kings like T.I. and Gucci Mane and empowered him to stand bar-for-bar with the greatest to ever spit (Jay-Z, Andre 3000, Drake) and sing (Chris Brown, Usher, John Legend), Ross’ contribution to his craft and culture travels far deeper than rap. Grammy nominations and classic verses aside, “The Biggest Boss” graduated his unparalleled vision and insane work ethic from Carol City’s unforgiving corners to corner offices and corporate partnerships. Inside the music business, his MMG label catapulted the careers of future legends Meek Mill and Wale. Outside of the biz, he’s the brilliant owner of a litany of brands from spirits (Belaire, Bumbu) to comfort food franchises (Wingstop, Checkers). But after birthing nine stellar albums, Ross, like any great, has challenged himself to outdo his greatest work. He accomplishes that on his latest opus Port of Miami 2. “I felt album number 10 is a special one,” says Ross. “It’s a milestone period. It almost feels like Pac doing the double CD.” Rozay’s tenth studio composition as the sequel to his debut is apropos poetry.

  • 0 Musical Borrowing in Hip-Hop
    MUSICAL BORROWING IN HIP-HOP MUSIC: THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS AND CASE STUDIES Justin A. Williams, BA, MMus Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2009 0 Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop Music: Theoretical Frameworks and Case Studies Justin A. Williams ABSTRACT ‗Musical Borrowing in Hip-hop‘ begins with a crucial premise: the hip-hop world, as an imagined community, regards unconcealed intertextuality as integral to the production and reception of its artistic culture. In other words, borrowing, in its multidimensional forms and manifestations, is central to the aesthetics of hip-hop. This study of borrowing in hip-hop music, which transcends narrow discourses on ‗sampling‘ (digital sampling), illustrates the variety of ways that one can borrow from a source text or trope, and ways that audiences identify and respond to these practices. Another function of this thesis is to initiate a more nuanced discourse in hip-hop studies, to allow for the number of intertextual avenues travelled within hip-hop recordings, and to present academic frameworks with which to study them. The following five chapters provide case studies that prove that musical borrowing, part and parcel of hip-hop aesthetics, occurs on multiple planes and within myriad dimensions. These case studies include borrowing from the internal past of the genre (Ch. 1), the use of jazz and its reception as an ‗art music‘ within hip-hop (Ch. 2), borrowing and mixing intended for listening spaces such as the automobile (Ch. 3), sampling the voice of rap artists posthumously (Ch. 4), and sampling and borrowing as lineage within the gangsta rap subgenre (Ch.

  • The Blueprint”--Jay-Z (2001) Added to the National Registry: 2018 Essay by Zack O’Malley Greenburg (Guest Post)*
    “The Blueprint”--Jay-Z (2001) Added to the National Registry: 2018 Essay by Zack O’Malley Greenburg (guest post)* Original CD cover A son of Brooklyn’s notorious housing projects who became hip-hop’s first billionaire in 2019, Jay-Z is as close as it gets to the modern-day embodiment of the American dream. So it’s only fitting that “The Blueprint,” one of the most noteworthy albums of the aughts, is the first 21st century recording selected for the National Recording Registry. Jay-Z’s sixth studio album arrived on September 11, 2001, and could have been lost amid the ensuing wave of national mourning. Instead, “Blueprint” ended up as a soundtrack of sorts-- mirroring the heady mix of pride and paranoia that permeated the post-September 11th United States. A classic album in any era, fate deposited it just in time to mirror an American moment when wound-licking gave way to a defiant indomitability. At the time, Jay-Z’s foes included a burgeoning roster of rival rappers, most notably Queens native Nas (a challenger for the King of New York crown) and the justice system, which had placed Jay-Z in legal limbo over the attack of a producer thought to have bootlegged his prior album (Jay-Z would eventually receive probation). He was also years into a prescient Grammy boycott—“Blueprint” would later be shut out at music’s biggest night despite vast critical acclaim. Backed by a battalion of producers including Timbaland, Just Blaze and a young Kanye West, Jay-Z caps “Blueprint’s” opening salvo by pronouncing himself “God MC, me, Jay-Hova.” Though he slings a few barbs at Mobb Deep’s Prodigy, his real target is archrival Nas, who’d questioned Jay-Z’s underworld credentials in a radio freestyle that evolved into one of hip-hop’s most legendary verbal confrontations.

  • (Aka the Game and Hurricane Game) Isued His Debut LP, the Documentary, in 2004 Through Aftermath/GU
    THE GAME Compton's own Game (aka the Game and Hurricane Game) isued his debut LP, The Documentary, in 2004 through Aftermath/G-Unit/Universal. With everyone from Dr. Dre and 50 Cent to Nate Dogg, Kanye West, and Just Blaze contributing to the album, The Documentary made it clear from the outset that geographic squabbles weren't a part of Game's agenda. Rapping hadn't been at first, either. Having gotten involved in the drug trade after a rough childhood, it took being shot during a home invasion to cause an epiphany in Game. Inspired by N.W.A, The Chronic, Doggystyle, and classic albums from 2Pac, the Notorious B.I.G., and Jay-Z, Game began rapping in 2001 and never looked back. His barbed and bold freestyles caught the ear of Dre, who signed him to Aftermath in 2003 and executive-produced his debut. It was delayed a few times, but The Documentary finally dropped in January 2005. Doctor's Advocate Soon Game and 50 Cent were at war over the former's reluctance to beef with any and every enemy of G-Unit. Freestyles and mixtapes were spawned in amazing amounts from both sides, and every time a truce seemed possible, things fell apart at the last minute. Dr. Dre was stuck in the middle, and while he never publicly denounced Game, he passed on working with the rapper for his next effort. Despite Dre's absence, Game's sophomore release kept its original title of Doctor's Advocate when it was released in late 2006.

Comparing The Slim Shady LP (1999) with his relatively unknown and commercially unsuccessful first album, Infinite (1996), reveals that instead of transcending racial boundaries as some critics have suggested, Eminem negotiated them in ways that made sense to his target audiences. In particular, Eminem’s influential single “My Name Is,” which helped launch his mainstream career, parodied various representations of whiteness to help counter charges that the white rapper lacked authenticity or was simply stealing black culture.

  • The NBA Live Franchise an Analysis of Gameplay and Marketing Advances Over the Years Since Its Inception
    The NBA Live Franchise An analysis of gameplay and marketing advances over the years since its inception STS 145: History of Game Design Professor Henry Lowood 3/16/2004 1 Pre-Game Warmups: Introduction Electronic Arts (EA), headquartered in Redwood City, California, is the world's leading independent developer and publisher of interactive entertainment software for personal computers and advanced entertainment systems. Year in and year out their games dominate the sports video games market. EA’s flagship and most popular basketball game, NBA Live, has advanced significantly in many areas of game design since its first release in 1995. This case study is an in-depth analysis of how EA Sports’ NBA Live series has advanced over the years, focusing on the ways in which it is exemplary of the evolution of video game design and marketing. Specifically, we will analyze the advances in game play (improvement of controls, realism, graphics, etc.) and the unprecedented marketing strategies that combined to make the NBA Live series such a huge success in the sports gaming industry. NBA Live was one of the few games on the basketball simulation market during its early years, leaving it with very little competition, which subsequently stagnated advances and innovation. Between its inception and about 1999, the game primarily advanced graphically as newer consoles and more powerful personal computers entered the market. Up until their 2002 release EA Sports sat comfortably on top of the market without making any groundbreaking gameplay innovations. In 2003, however, on the heels of intense competition from Sega with their NBA 2K series, EA introduced the Freestyle control, which revolutionized gameplay by allowing users to execute special moves by the moving of the right analog stick while dribbling, passing, or playing defense.
