John Keats famously wrote, A thing of beauty is a joy forever; its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness."" Ali Selim seems to have taken these words to heart in his first feature film, ""Sweet Land."" Set in 1920s rural Minnesota, the film is a study in beauty, wearing its nostalgia on its sepia-toned sleeve.

From the opening notes of his sophomore album Time Is Money, it is clear Styles P is doing his best to set himself apart from the droves of gangsta rappers on the market. G-Joint"" begins as few hip-hop songs do, considering very few rap joints begin with the endearingly cheesy synths from Asia's ""Only Time Will Tell."" ""G-Joint's"" lyrics tie in to the absurd '80s sampling, name checking everything from Slick Rick to Rambo to the wonderfully dated Van Damme flick ""Bloodsport.""
