Die Hard...A Christmas Movie?
There’s a common occurrence in my life this time of year. Inevitably, the subject of Christmas movies comes up, and inevitably, I share my favorite. “Oh, that’s easy,” I say. “Die Hard is my favorite Christmas movie!” …Now herein lies the problem. About half the time, I get the same response. “Die Hard isn’t a Christmas movie!” I always start my argument by stating that the movie is set during Christmas. Now, I understand that a stereotypical Christmas movie needs to revolve

A$AP Rocky Releases Music Video for his Single "Sundress"
Recently, New York-based rapper A$AP Rocky released a music video for his single “Sundress”. The song, which features an up-tempo psychedelic beat sampled from the song “Why Won’t You Make Up Your Mind?” by rock band Tame Impala, is drastically different from Rocky’s usual style of rap. The Video opens up with Rocky walking down the street towards a nightclub with a girl who is presumably his girlfriend. His girlfriend looks across the street and sees a man who looks similar

Jeremy Moss: Groves Alumnus and Michigan's 35th District Representative
At 32-years-old, Jeremy Moss (Groves Alumni) swore-in for his second term representing Michigan's 35th District on December 16, 2018. The 35th district includes Southfield, Lathrop Village, Beverly Hills, Bingham Farms, and Franklin. When Jeremy was just 5-years-old, he told his parents he wanted to go on a vacation to Washington D.C. Most kids at his age would want to go to Disneyland, but unlike those kids, Jeremy was intrigued by politics from a young age. This video inclu

The Polar Express: a Christmas Classic or an Inadequate Holiday Film?
As the holiday season rears its festive head around this time a year, an avalanche of songs, ornaments, and pine-scented candles hit the stores. This market extravaganza also signals another holiday phenomenon; Christmas-themed movies. The jolly films, often over saturated with “holiday cheer”, jam viewer’s recording space and flood the Hallmark channel. One of these renowned, sugar-coated, overly sentimental movies that try to brainwash children about the morals of “Christma

Online Relations by 1975 Album Review
From the high pitched screeching noises to the beautiful, well put together melodies, A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships by the 1975, has some serious highs and lows. This album can only be best described as a rollercoaster. At some moment I felt relaxed. At other, I felt as if I was crashing down the tracks. Stomach jumping, all I wanted to do was scream. Now that being said, I listened to all fifteen songs. The intro to the album is confusing. It starts off with this

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (Spoiler Alert)
Once in a while, despite all the anticipation, a film comes along that falls short like a rocket with no fuel. It is not groundbreaking or intelligent, exciting, sincere, or funny. I went to go see Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse a week early, and by all measures, it is NOT that movie in any regard. I have heard it called the best superhero film of the year (beating Black Panther and Infinity War) and even the best film of the year period. It kept a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes

PMSC: Da Eastside Manifesto Review
Let me put you all on to these guys called PMSC. Their Soundcloud says PMSC means Power Move Smoke Club, but it really means Pretty Marvelous Soundcloud Crew. They say in their tracks that they’re from Eastside Atlanta, but they sound like they’re from Ishtar Terra, a plateau on hellish Venus. And though they may look like an average Trap crew, they’re really the greatest group out here in the landscape of Soundcloud Rap, and maybe even music in general. Honestly, when you li

Hairspray Musical Review
The Groves Performing Arts Company’s showing of the musical Hairspray was truly outstanding. I had never seen anything like it before.
Making this musical even more impressing, was the fact that some of the dances in it were choreographed by three of the cast members themselves. These cast members were Juniors Kennedy Giles, Mateo Davis, and Kate Karaskiewicz. This is something that personally, I never would have guessed. The entire performance was very well rehearsed, and
