Blues, Rock, Rap #OPS Throwdown 4/16/2016

This is a reproduction of the music from my Saturday #OPSThrowdown on Google+

Today's theme was Blues, Rock, Rap. It was a musical companion piece to my articles about NWA and Gene Simmons arguing about if Hip-Hop music counts as Rock.

Dear God, Gene Simmons is at it again, ghettoizing NWA and Hip-Hop

Maybe he should have listened to what Ice Cube actually said at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony?

Vinyl (HBO) Episode 9: 2 + 2 = "Record Man"

This is my recap of Episode 9 of HBO's drama Vinyl. They called this episode "Rock and Roll Queen."

I am calling it 2 + 2 = "Record Man"

In this week's episode, Richie decides to come clean to some and becomes truly visible to others, Devon makes important choices, and The Nasty Bits get, well, Nasty.

Wow! HBO fires Winter in Spring for Vinyl

I am sadly not shocked to see that HBO released Terence Winter from his responsibilities as the showrunner of their series Vinyl.

Why does this move sadden me? Read on Vinyl lovers.
