We live in an entertainment era today where virtually every film produced is either a remake, a continuation of an ancient series or recycled story bits put together to make a film lacking any freshness. Leave it to the biggest film-lover in the world and one of the greatest filmmakers of all time to craft a film that not only eloquently reflects on the changing world surrounding pop culture and the entertainment industry, but to create one of the most original, charismatic films of all time.

There’s no doubt that 2018 was an uneasy yet exciting year for Kanye West fans. A lot went down, but let’s focus on an obvious high point: KIDS SEE GHOSTS. Kid Cudi and Kanye West have been a favorite duo for hip-hop-loving millennials, so expectations for this project were high. However, it’s hard to know what to expect with those two. KSG lived up to the iconic statuses of both Cudi and West while exploring new creative territories. Many artists in 2018 have been sticking to the short album trend, and at only 23 minutes long, KSG is no exception. Despite being comprised of only seven precise tracks, the album thematically spans years of volatile controversies and mental health challenges for both artists. The album is an awakening, a fresh start for Cudi and West. Artistically and emotionally in sync at this stage in their careers, the two try to heal their mental health and perhaps a once-fragmented friendship. On the standout track “Freeee,” West and Cudi yell with liberation: “I don’t feel pain anymore/ Guess what baby, I feel free.” The album has a lot of themes involving criticism and self-control, which is played-out through the album with music that feels chaotic at some points and incredibly meticulous at others. -Molly Carmichael
This year marks the 19th year that the U.S. Department of State and the U.S Department of Education are joining forces to create International Education Week, which spans campuses including UW-Madison.
EDM fans had a lot to be excited about last week, as Ethan “Whethan” Snoreck brought his “Life Of A Wallflower Tour” to the Sylvee. The Chicago-based music producer performed at the Majestic last year, making his return to Madison at a new, much larger venue all the more anticipated.
Self-proclaimed boy band BROCKHAMPTON dropped their much-anticipated album iridescence this past Friday. Forming only three years ago, the group had already released four albums, including All-American Trash and the Saturation trilogy. With their constant influx of content, experimental sound and unique aesthetic, the group has been experiencing tremendous growth in popularity, from having a Viceland series to hanging out with iconic producers like Rick Rubin and Pharrell Williams.
Fans of “Rick and Morty,” myself included, may not have expected the duo to return Logic’s favor of a brief cameo, as he did last season on the popular show. The grandfather-grandson duo announced last week that Logic was dropping a sequel to his well-received Bobby Tarantino mixtape that would be “Good ol’ Atlanta-style club rap.”
Earlier this week, sporting goods giant Dick’s Sporting Goods announced in a letter from their CEO Edward Stack that they will halt the sale of all firearms similar to those used in the Parkland, Florida school shooting. According to the letter, they will no longer sell assault-style rifles or high capacity magazines in any of their online or retail locations.
Dec. 15 marked several major releases as finals week started in Madison. Eminem and N.E.R.D. released their first albums in four and seven years, respectively, and BROCKHAMPTON closed their SATURATION trilogy with SATURATION III, their third album in six months. Then, as finals wrapped up on Dec. 21, we were greeted by Huncho Jack, Jack Huncho, the highly-anticipated collaborative effort from Travis Scott and Quavo under the moniker Huncho Jack. This outpour of music was a fun way to close out 2017, and it supplied ample listening material over break. The four albums were vastly different from each other and, likewise, had varying levels of success.
Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good. Sometimes the opposite is true. And sometimes, as the Wisconsin Badgers (1-1 Big Ten, 5-7 overall) learned Wednesday night, it's best to just be smart.
In a move that continues this week’s trend of surprising decisions from President Trump’s executive branch, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Scott Pruitt, announced that he would demand a large-scale investigation into the role that off-shore wind turbines played in the series of devastating hurricanes that hit Florida and Texas this summer.
The Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball team finds itself out of the AP preseason top-25 rankings for the first time since the 2010-’11 season, a team that was led by the likes of Jordan Taylor, Jon Leuer and Keaton Nankivil. But enough of the Badgers, as this column will focus on a national outlook for the upcoming college basketball season. With over 9,000 regular season games to be played in this year (there are 347 NCAA Division 1 teams with a minimum of 27 regular season games each) the possibilities are endless, so to get a clearer look on who we’ll see competing for a national title, let’s consult the current AP preseason top-25.
With a “D” rating for function and “F” for condition, the UW-Milwaukee student union has its problems, from a non-functioning elevator to plumbing failure that leaks from the kitchen into the Panther Shop. Now, students have the opportunity to change all of that.
Few films have made such ripples in film debate and the entire sci-fi genre as Ridley Scott’s original “Blade Runner” film. It polarized critics and audiences alike at the time of its 1982 release — hailed for its immersive, captivating visual effects but criticized for its pacing and out-there plot. “Blade Runner” is also notorious for its multiple cuts, with Scott having the most creative control on “The Final Cut.” Having only seen the original once, I can’t say I’ve been swept up in the cult following “Blade Runner” has garnered over time, but its visual scope and philosophical themes give it an enigmatic quality that I still find myself being drawn to. On these levels, its sequel, “Blade Runner 2049,” improves, staying true to the story’s roots while expanding on what made “Blade Runner” a classic.
It looks as though America cannot get a break from the devastating tropical storms as Hurricane Irma barrels towards Florida and the coasts of Georgia and the Carolinas.

The last few months of the year almost always bring forth a diverse mix of blockbusters and Oscar contenders, but there are a few other promising titles lined up in the coming weeks to make for a balanced movie-going experience. Here’s what you need to look out for this fall:
For a few dollars, TouchTunes jukeboxes allow students to choose the music they hear at their favorite close-to-campus bar. They come pre-loaded with thousands of song choices, so why are artists topping hit music charts sometimes nowhere to be found?
