Why So Many People Think Music Isn’t as Good Anymore

“I Got Blacker”: Jack Harlow’s Statement We Need to Talk About by NWO Sparrow
Jack Harlow “Got Blacker” and Still Didn’t Leave Hip-Hop Behind by NWO Sparrow Jack Harlow said it himself on the Times Popcast this week: “I got blacker.” He was talking about his new R&B-leaning album Monica, and how he approaches music that’s traditionally rooted in Black culture. I get what he was trying to say, even if the phrasing landed awkwardly. I know he didn’t mean to minimize anyone’s experience or make it sound like he can claim some kind of cultural badge. Still, the words themselves were striking, bold enough to make you pause.

Songs Of Moonlight
Introduction This was inspired because the moon lit up the bedroom in the Alnwick apartment. My photographs are not very good, but you can get the idea. I am a bit scared of the dark, so it was nice to be able to see my way around the room when it was dark.

Ozzfest return
In a previous article i wrote regarding Ozzfest I wrote about how I don't think that Ozzfest should return with Ozzy and quite frankly I still don't. However, I have looked at it from both sides of the aisle as they say and though i stand by my point of view i also see that Ozzfest should carry on and it would be a great way to carry on and honor Ozzy's name and legacy and also still fly the flag for heavy music and metal as it had always done.
