  • My Favorite Book – Freshwater
    If there’s one book that I believe everyone should read once in their life, it’s my favorite book – Freshwater by Akwaeke Emezi. From my course, Queer Literature under Dr. Bill Albertini, I discovered Emezi’s Freshwater (2018). Once more, my course, Creative Writing Thesis Workshop under Professor Amorak Huey, was instructed to present our favorite […]

CD review for kids

If you want to make any young sibling happy at any given moment, the “NOW” selection is always a great place to look. This being the “NOW, Vol. 20” edition, it delivers songs that popular radio has been playing these last couple of months. This is an full-length album, featuring 20 songs that can appeal to anyone at any age.

“NOW, Vol. 20” delivers: rock, pop, R’#38;B, hip hop and country. Where else can you find this variety on one CD without having to go to your computer to download?

“NOW” starts out with Missy Elliott’s, “Lose Control,” with the weird dance beat, and goes into The Black Eyed Peas’ “Don’t Phunk With My Heart.”

Bow Wow makes an appearance, with his collaboration with Ciera on “Like You.” DHT’s cover of Roxanne’s “Listen to Your Heart,” also made the cut being featured on radio stations nationwide.

Kelly Clarkson shows no signs of slowing down from her post-American Idol career with her song “Behind These Hazel Eyes,” also appearing on the album. The Backstreet Boys reunion made the cut with their song, “Just Want You to Know.”

The later part of the album features more rock-pop with the likes of Franz Ferdinand, Weezer, Coldplay and Fall Out Boy.

“NOW, Vol 20” ends with a little country provided by Keith Urban and his track, “You’ll Think of Me,” giving the album the variation needed for a compilation album.

“NOW” has always provided a great mix of genres and this one is no different. Whatever your tastes are, look no further than “NOW, Vol 20.” It’s a great album for any age at any time.
