Television

And Just Like That
A much-needed, more diverse update to a beloved franchise. Golden intentions, but untrue to the characters in a way that makes the storylines ring hollow. This revival needs to lean into its stars’ long-developed personalities and sense of motivation in order to make their mid-life transformations feel satisfying.

Unforgiving- Alien Weaponry
I hate to admit that the first time I heard Unforgiving was in concert. The first time was surreal, as I stood next to my brother, who I nearly lost the previous year. Little did I know a year later, this would be my comfort song when my grandmother passed.

The Godfather of Harlem
One episode in - I was hooked. Love Black representation. Despise the often stereotypical characterization. Small minds, debased character, and low ambitions this is not that. As a history lover, the Godfather of Harlem pulls out all the stops. Following Bumpy Johnson on a mission to survive. CIA be damned!

House of the Dragon
The collapse of modern television's beloved fantasy series left dust stuck in all our craws. House of the Dragon, however, succeeds in clearing the debris left behind by Game of Thrones. Slick, sexy, sinister, and jammed packed with scaly beasts, House of the Dragon is HBO's medieval shot of adrenaline.

President Barack Obama - The Audacity of Hope
The speech that launched a Presidency. President Barack Obama gave the keynote DNC speech in 2004, unifying a divided nation with his audacity of hope. The speech spoke truth to power in the strings that tied America into red states and blue states by highlighting we are the United States.

Man In The Box
Man In The Box has always been my favorite Alice In Chains song. Perhaps because I’ve often felt that I’ve been trying to escape the box that people are always trying to paint me into. Most definitely it has something to do with Layne Staley and Jerry Cantrell’s vocal styling.
