Creative differences mar Fiasco's ‘Lasers'

By Duncan Bryer | April 3, 2011

Chicago rapper Lupe Fiasco's third album "Lasers" is a difficult album to review. While it fails to reach the lyrical or production levels of his previous album the critically and popularly acclaimed "The Cool" "Lasers" is an innovative and unique album in its own right, representing some of the best and worst aspects of hip-hop today. Perhaps the biggest talk surrounding "Lasers" was the delay of its release, a result of Fiasco's creative differences with his record company, Atlantic Records, who were pushing for (read: demanding) a more commercial framework for Fiasco's "conscious rap." Not to say this is necessarily a bad thing I'm the last person to criticize music because its production is catchy.

Internet Meme of the Week: Bob Dylan's "Friday"

By Gavin Huang | April 3, 2011

Courtesy of YouTube.com If you take the recording circulating around YouTube lately at face value, it would seem that Bob Dylan wrote Rebecca Black's hit "Friday." Could the writer of "Like a Rolling Stone," which Rolling Stone Magazine named the greatest song of all time in 2004, really have written what critics are now calling the worst song of all time? "Of course he did," one YouTube video insists.

Dartmouth musicians descend upon Austin

By Tatiana Cooke | March 27, 2011

Robert Szypko / The Dartmouth Senior Staff Correction appended### AUSTIN, Texas Campus musicians may struggle to find adequate performance venues in rural New Hampshire, but for Reptar bass player Ryan Engelberger '12, the pickings at last year's South by Southwest music festival were equally slim. "Our first [show] was at a burger stand across from the [Austin] Convention Center, the next one was at a coffee shop with speakers that had been left outside and weren't really working," Engelberger said. Dartmouth students flocked to Austin, Texas over spring break for the 25th annual SXSW music festival, which ran from March 15th to 20th.

AS SEEN ON: Fastforward to fall development season

By Allison Levy | March 8, 2011

Since we've reached the point in the term where most Dartmouth students (myself included) don't have time to watch too much TV, I thought I'd devote this column to the most promising shows slated to hit the small screen in the fall. In the months preceding the upfront presentations, where networks announce their primetime schedules for the next year, networks order pilots for their fall seasons.
