#Fugees the score album art series#

Created by the writer Lux Alptraum, who co-hosts the series with producer Siona Peterous, the series bills itself as a study of public apologies that intends to understand why theyвЂ™re so hard to execute well and why theyвЂ™re often difficult to believe.

Into this muck steps Say YouвЂ™re Sorry, a new Audible Original that dropped earlier this month. ItвЂ™s a sorry state of sorries, enough to make one wonder why we even bother at all. Such pronouncements hardly ever transcend suspicion of being mere exercises in image management. Furthermore, the apologies we do get rarely feel consequential. On the other hand, the air is utterly thick with powerful individuals and institutions that simply see no need to apologize at all. Would it be inaccurate to say that we seem to be in an era where public apologies have never felt more ubiquitous andВ elusive? On the one hand, whether from a celebrity or a corporation, they are a routinely expected occurrence nowadays, coming and going like the weather. Yesterday, ten days after Time MachineвЂ™s release, Fugees announced that they were reuniting for an international tourВ to celebrate the albumвЂ™s 25th anniversary. When Abdurraqib describes Lauryn HillвЂ™s vocals in вЂњKilling Me SoftlyвЂќ - вЂњI heard he sang a good song, I heard he had a styleвЂќ - as gliding over the harmonies and beats, one can say that he is doing the very same thing himself. Kicking AbdurraqibвЂ™s lyrical deliveries up to a higher gear is some excellent scoring and sound design by Raj Makhija. The basement is where you might go to get away with something, and when you get away with something enough times, youвЂ™ll chase the next forbidden thing until everything feels like an unlocked door. It can summon low-stakes experimentation with high-stakes results. The basement was a place where one could be both brilliant and foolish depending on the hour or second. Of the Booga Basement, the home studio where Fugees recorded The Score: The essays are also, of course, gorgeously written. But for the unfamiliar, hereвЂ™s what to expect: vignettes that stretch across time and memory sharp observations that conjure vivid imagery reflections on the ways in which a piece of art can attach to oneвЂ™s self and help form the basis of an identity. If you are familiar with AbdurraqibвЂ™s work in any way, you probably know what youвЂ™re getting here. Adhering to the concept-album conceit, Time Machine: The ScoreВ takes the shape of a two-parter - вЂњSide AвЂќ and вЂњSide BвЂќ - each containing four essay вЂњtracks.вЂќ Here, the team has built a вЂњconcept albumвЂќ featuring a series of essays from Abdurraqib about The Score, the second and final studio album by the legendary hip-hop group Fugees that broke records when it was released in 1996. Time Machine: The ScoreВ comes as the second release from The 11th, Pineapple StreetвЂ™s feed dedicated to publishing works that donвЂ™t naturally fit conventional podcast structure (at least according to the studioвЂ™s judgment).

couldnt find him anywere else than here.Given my deep enjoyment of Hanif AbdurraqibвЂ™s previous podcast work - his season of KCRWвЂ™s Lost NotesВ was in my top-ten list for 2020В - it shouldnвЂ™t be a surprise that I was quick to pick up his latest audio effort, and even less of a surprise that I enjoyed that too.
