Music Review: Eminem - The Slim Shadey LP
When this album broke the charts and entered the ears of America’s Teenagers it did more than shake things up, it completely shattered the delicate balance of 1990s Clinton era Neo-Liberalism. Eminem, a cute blond white boy with a sadistic but sharp sense of humor and unmatched writing skills became the object of many peoples fantasies and worst nightmares This being his first studio album, nobody outside of the Hip hop music world really knew who the F*** he was! Needless to say, from Gay Ri

Unsolicited Music Review – Choralism in London
The past couple of weeks have been pretty interesting musically–we’ve been to a number of choral concerts, and they ranged from the truly boring to the magnificent. But what most characterized them was a distinction between the excessively academic approach to performance, versus what I guess we need to call a more Romantic approach. Not that the second label is remotely applicable to most of the music in question–it’s pretty much, with two exceptions, music of the 13th through the 17th centurie
