Reality Television: Good Or Bad For Society

   In my opinion, most of the shows that are being churned out by the entertainment networks are having a detrimental affect on the youth of America and other countries. From shows like Teen Mom, that give young mothers incentives and rewards for their bad judgment, to shows like Jersey Shore which glorify stupidity and alcoholism with an unabashedness that is quite alarming.
  Other shows like the Real Houswives franchise encourage otherwise unnoteworthy, to bicker and fight to their hearts content. This gives a bad representation and reputation to certain groups and cements into people's minds certain harmful stereotypes.
    On the plus side, there are some reality shows aimed at uplifting its viewers. Some that I would recommend are those aimed at finding great artists and TI's new family oriented series TI and Tiny: A Family Hustle. It might be hard to wade through the filth and grime that is reality television, but you may be rewarded for your troubles with a true diamond in the rough.

Jay Z Kanye West Watch The Throne

   The much anticipated watch the throne concert tour has been making the rounds. Many people are very excited to hear that the duo will be stopping in their area. A fan favorite seems to be the song 'Monster'. Another favorite is 'Otis'. I have seen Jay Z perform recently and I must say that his age us definitely showing. He is in his fourties which begs the question, what age is too old to perform. I believe that when an individual cannot perform to the same energy level he was able to in his prime, he or she should bow out. What is your opinion?

Drakes New CD Does Well

This Canadian born entertainer is seemingly taking America by storm. He has been quoted as saying that he believes that social media networks have negative connotations. He is not a huge fan of them although he probably does own an IPhone or Android phone and is known to tweet. Drake recently released this album and ut seems to be receiving a lot of critical acclaim. I have heard a few tracks off of this cd including 'Headlines' and I must admit to being a little underwhelmed. I believe that despite all the hype, this piece of work is not very ground breaking or innovative. I believe that because of Drakes' prevalence in the mainstream, he is able to create and boost his overall sales and use his monetary resources to build up hype that would otherwise be non existent. I am curious as to how other individuals feel so I invite comments.In my opinion, J cole is way more talented than Drake is. Dont get me wrong, Im not saying that I dont have respect for Drizzys hustle.
