Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “The King and I” might take the cake when it comes to virtually fossilized, ethnocentric and downright offensive pieces of American theatre. Maybe its “white savior” narrative and hyperbolic representation of Thai culture were considered all fine and dandy when this show debuted in 1951. But in our wanting-to-be-woke society of today, there was no justifiable reason for this show’s revival tour and subsequent stent at the Overture Center from Feb. 26 to March 3.

Sometimes a TV series just doesn’t know when to end. The first season of HBO’s “True Detective” from 2014 starred Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson in spellbinding performances that redefined crime storytelling for the ages to come. It was dark, gritty and rooted in the questioning of the nature of humanity. Each episode was more gripping and intriguing than the next.

Well, I had a piece planned on “Rainbow Six: Siege” for this week — a little thinkpiece about the whole ‘games as a service’ trend and how “Siege” has managed to both stumble into that model and sidestep the worst parts of it. But after the Activision-Blizzard layoffs, it just feels disingenuous to talk about anything other than the weird, terrible ways this industry is run and the ways it could be better.

Travis Scott has built a reputation as one of hip-hop’s definitive musicians today. While his studio music and his live shows have become memes, both are no joke: ASTROWORLD was one of the best hip-hop albums in 2018 and his recent tour, “ASTROWORLD-WISH YOU WERE HERE TOUR 2,” stopped in Milwaukee’s sold-out Fiserv Forum this past weekend to prove he is nothing less than an electrifying performer.

Instead of speculating on his citizenship — which you can read about here —, let’s take a closer look at what 21 Savage has to offer to America.
