Today the jury reached its verdict to determine Derek Chauvin's fate. The man who let his whole body weight land through his knee on George Floyd's neck - on Floyd's precious life. Das didn't have practice this evening - he had to stay a little past the time of school being out so I needed... Continue Reading →

As with everything in this world, emerging Music is one thing that is constantly evolving with new sounds and ideas coming to the forefront fairly often. These evolutions aren’t always openly welcome despite the frequency. The genre... Continue Reading →
