Why Can’t We Handle Our Freedom? The Story Of An Hour by Kate Chopin is a beautifully crafted ironic short fictional story, that revolves around our human inability to grasp our freedom. We as a species often feel trapped by the overwhelming blessing that is complete freedom. Often described by existentialists, the only thing holding us back is the barriers that we create for ourselves. This short story is able to express the excitement that is complete and utter freedom with a dark ironic…

I'll start by saying Paulie Malignaggi opened his mouth on purpose. I'm sure he never thought he'd have a chance to be a part of such a big boxing event. When you box your entire life and "some guy" comes along, has the spotlight, has everything you wanted, but didn't receive, that jealousy can run ramped. After all we're only human. Pauli has always been one to create controversy. I could point to a number of times in his career he's said wild things or been in the center of drama. Let's take a…

Before the song Uptown Funk would become a cultural phenomenon and win the 58th Annual Grammy for the Best Record of the 2016. The infectious single would change the career of English music producer and DJ Mark Ronson. But, not before proving to be one of Ronson’s most difficult projects. The creation of Uptown Funk would push Ronson to his limits, but ultimately paid off. Ronson is known throughout the music industry for crafting pop hits infused with snapping retro-soul. Ronson’s most…

70. Against Me! - Thrash Unreal When Against Me! released Thrash Unreal in 2007, nobody could’ve guessed that Laura Jane Grace, then known as a 26 years-old Tom Gabel, could ever identify so much with the 40-something woman who lives her nightlife as if she just started college. Perhaps, through the age-gap malaise and shame from her mother, the key phrase comes in at the very end of the track,. After Against Me! most sing-along worthy chorus (and coming from that band, it’s saying a lot),…

Erykah Badu: The Queen of Neo-Soul "What I work hard at doing is staying on a path of being kind and showing and proving that I'm a good person to society. That's hard. The talent, that's a gift. I just came here like that." Erykah Badu was born Erica Abi Wright, on February 26, 1971 in Dallas Texas. Raised by her actress mother Kolleen Maria Wright, Badu was exposed to the arts early on. At a very young age she danced and sang for her mother and eventually began performing in shows at her…

she has, “been off stage for far too long.” Because of the way the song is played, it could be easy to ignore the lyrics and imagine it encouraging another cast member to continue the plot. In this way, it reminds me of “Hey Ya” by Outkast where Andre 3000 says, “y'all don't want to hear me, ya just want to dance.” The hilarity here is also due to the character breaking the fourth wall to clearly send a message to the audience that this musical should be her show and not any of the, “British…

The adaptations I have chosen to focus on being the 1974 version by filmmaker Jack Clayton and 2013 version by filmmaker Baz Luhrmann. Those are the two most important adaptations that have gained…
