1. Rhyming is not the same as songwriting. 2. Rhyming is a part of songwriting but it's not the only thing involved in writing a hot rap song. 3.

How Do You Approach a Collaboration?

For me, I think it's important to establish the short-term & long-term goals of the individual when someone asks me to produce a song with them, etc. I mean, yeah it's cool to just get together & write, do beats, etc. But what are we going to do with the song after that? Is it just going to sit on a hard drive to be played when friends come over for drinks? Will it be added to a list of songs you're compiling for an actual CD? Will the song get pitched to a publisher, sold online on a we… Continue

The Real Barbie

"One of the most common criticisms of Barbie is that she promotes an unrealistic idea of body image for a woman, leading to a risk that women who attempt to emulate her will become anorexic. A standard Barbie doll is 11.5 inches tall, giving a height of 5 feet 9 inches at 1/6 scale. Barbie's vital statistics have been estimated at 36 inches (chest), 18 inches (waist) and 33 inches (hips). According to research by the University Central Hospital in Helsinki, Finland, she would lack the 17 to 22 p… Continue
