J. Cole's New Album 'K.O.D.'!!!!!

Happy Friday everybody! If you've been paying attention you'd know that J. Cole dropped a new album and WNJR is here for it!

Source:HIGHSNOBIETY

J. Cole's new album 'K.O.D.' brings light to the use of drugs, including those prescribed, as escapes from our realities. He speaks on the trials and tribulations that comes with being Black in America; police brutality, mental health stigma, addiction, and incarceration. J. Cole's reminisces about his life before and after stardom concerning romantic and platonic relationships. The album's lyrics are supplemented nicely with some psychedelic-like undertones. It's an album that deserves appreciation.
For more information on the album and it's meanings and themes go here.  Listen here or 91.7FM to catch some of J. Cole's tunes we have in our system!

Urinetown: The Musical!


Urinetown


Hey everybody! This weekend the W&J communication Arts department is putting on the hilarious musical "Urinetown"! The show takes place in a world where there is a water shortage so bad that the idea of private bathrooms are unheard of. It follows a poor community that is inspired by a young man to rise up and take control back from the large corporation that runs all the public bathrooms, "Urine Good Company" and follows what happens when the people try to pee for free. This musical is a satirical look at the classicism that exists in our world. It is being put on at Olin Theatre TONIGHT (Thursday 4/12), Friday, and Saturday at 7:30 pm with a matinee on Saturday at 2:00pm. Doors open a half hour before the show starts and it's free admission for everyone! The cast and crew has worked very hard to put this musical together so we hope you can come out.

Artist Spotlight: Alina Baraz

Alina Baraz is an American singer and songwriter who moved to Los Angeles at the age of 19 to pursue her career.  In 2015, Alina collaborated with Galimatias to produce the Urban Flora EP.  This past week she released her first solo EP titled The Color of You.  A few of my favorite songs from the albums include "Falling," "Floating," and "I Don't Even Know Why Though."  She also recently released a few singles before the release of the album called "Buzzin" and "Lavender and Velvet." Her music falls within the electronica genre, and this EP is perfect for the upcoming summer.  Be sure to tune into WNJR to hear Alina Baraz and other artists like her!

Music Monday: Rita Ora

http://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/rita-ora-uk-tour-support-act-announced-as-raye__22036/
Happy Monday! I hope that everyone had an amazing weekend and your week is off to a great start. To make your Monday even better here is a new hit single by Rita Ora. A British singer and actress from London, England, Rita Ora began her career at an early age from singing at open mic sessions in London and released her first single in 2008. As an artist, Rita has had many hit singles, but this one by far is the best, in my opinion. I hope you all enjoy "Anywhere" by Rita Ora and have a great week!
