Unorthodox representations
SPOILER ALERT! I COMMENT ON THE ENDING EVENTS OF THE NETFLIX MINISERIES, UNORTHODOX, IN THIS ARTICLE. I am a musician. I have always considered myself a musician. However, despite having attended a prestigious music school for university and having tried to find my own way within a music career, I have always felt stifled and hesitant on this path. My career in music thus far has been one of calculation and stealthiness. In this way, I can relate to the character of Esther Shapiro, played in Netflix’s recent miniseries, Unorthodox. However, the portrayal of musicians and their work in this series is also something I wish to critique and discuss.
Grammys 2020
The 64th annual Grammys were held this past Sunday on January 26th. They were hosted the second time in the row by New York Singer Alicia Keyes. I watched the award show and can honestly give my best opinion about it. The Grammys are a supposed to be a prestigious award show that recognizes music over the past year, but overall the years it has not been very promising. This year I feel like it was not as entertaining and the award recipients were given to the wrong people. I do not know why the Grammys keep going with this system, as it loses their credibility. They were a few good highlights from the show that I might recognize as well. To further explain my point, here is a rundown of the entire show.

‘You’ “What would you do for love? For a brilliant male bookstore manager who crosses paths with an aspiring female writer, this question is put to the test. A charming yet awkward crush becomes something even more sinister when the writer becomes the manager’s obsession. Using social media and the internet, he uses every tool at his disposal to become close to her, even going so far as to remove any obstacle –including people — that stands in his way of getting to her.“

It's true... the show Skylines will no longer be coming back for a season two on Netflix and I haven't been this upset since I found out that Tuca and Bertie was cancelled. Since Skylines is a Netflix Original, it won't be showing anywhere else. Once it's cancelled on Netflix... it's gone.

A Tapestry of Sound and Vision
Even before MTV made “music video” an everyday term, rock and roll existed as a visual medium almost as much as a sonic one. One of the most obvious side effects of this duality has been the numerous attempts to encapsulate the cultural significance of rock music for television and film. Though not focused solely on rock music, the documentary series Soundbreaking, which aired on PBS before being released on DVD and digitally, is arguably the most successful effort to date. Somewhat paradoxically, the fact that that the program isn't totally focused on rock and roll is what makes it virtually definitive on the subject.

My Review of 'Tales from the Tour Bus': Season 2
Tales from the Tour Bus is an interesting concept that I think could have been influenced from The Chappelle Show. Dave Chappelle made skits with Charlie Murphy narrating his recollection of stories in the past when he used to hangout with his famous brother Eddie. He used to be able to hangout with tons of stars. Tales from the Tour Bus reminded me so much about Charlie Murphy's Rick James, Prince story in The Chappelle Show.

The Millennials & The Monkees
The millennial generation is now the largest, most ethnically diverse generation in American history. Though it is heavily debated, it is likely the age range is around those who are 18-35 today. And with this comes a particular style of expression that has spread among young people. The millennial "brand" of surrealism humor that is both popular and sometimes dark. And the more one grows alongside this trend, the easier it becomes to see the call-backs to a time before. One television show of the sixties in particular, The Monkees, has astounding similarities. Though it was aimed to children of a past generation, young people of today would find a lot to identify with. What made the show so revolutionary and controversial in the sixties is the same type of humor that appeals to millennials today.
