Headbanger Hip-Hop Crew Midwest Avengers Return On Their 27th Anniversary with "Unstoppable" Feat. Lacey Corbett (Year 25 EP)

Midwest Avengers (MWA) are a self-described "Hip-Hop/Rock/Rap/Metal/Punk/Funk" band hailing from St. Louis, Missouri, often times, billed as "Headbanger Hip-Hop." MWA celebrated their 25th anniversary as a genre-eschewing band back in 2017 with their latest effort, Midwest Avengers 25th Anniversary Edition AKA Year 25. Originally formed in 1992 as a straight-up Rap crew, Midwest Avengers has evolved into a live music band, in a similar vein to The Roots, Bad Brains, or Jurassic 5; primary emcee John "BC" Harrington is, however, the only remaining member from the original '92 MWA line-up. Midwest Avengers current iteration additionally consists of fellow emcee James "So'n'So" Coleman, guitarists Joe "That Guy Joe" Caratachea & Mason "Mace The Kidd" Caratachea, drummer Alonzo "Zo Prophet" Jamison, and bassist Shawn "Moses" Moses. MWA's Facebook page readily lists Black Flag, Bad Brains, A Tribe Called Quest, The Cure, Fugazi, The Misfits, Public Enemy, Slayer, Slum Village, and Run-D.M.C. amongst their primary sources of influence.

MWA was re-formed in 2004 transitioning from an all-emcee group to a Headbanger Hip-Hop act and has since released Evil Super-heroes (2006,) Headbanger Hip-Hop (2010,) Hurry Up & Wait (2014,) and, of course, the aforementioned Year 25. Midwest Avengers 25th Anniversary Edition EP appears to consists of revised and "Rocked up" versions of MWA's deep album cuts and BC-selected staples. Midwest Avengers are, apparently, still actively touring across The Midwest area and pushing Year 25 coinciding with their 27th anniversary as a band/crew... a mere two weeks ago, MWA unleashed the Team Wood Farms-directed music video for "Unstoppable" Feat. Lacey Corbett of Apollo's Daughter. Midwest Avengers 25th Anniversary Edition AKA Year 25 is currently available to stream, purchase, or download on Apple Music, Spotify, Soundcloud, and like-minded platforms.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age.

Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
