  • by Jennifer Scism * WCnewsmagazine Last semester a group of students worked together and formed a local monthly hip-hop show called The P.E.A.K. Two of these students, Matthew Ash and Shamus Coneys, recently participated in a talent search organized and produced by Flaxgold Records _and Entertainment. |Flaxgold is a new nd upcoming record ompany out of Hollywood, California. he talent search was overseen by Mr. regory Ross, a well-known classical ianist. In September Matthew and hamus participated in the first round of he competition and advanced to the semi- _finals. At the semi-finals, held in South Carolina, both of the hip-hop artists were _chosen to advance to the final round of the competition. Flaxgold Entertainment plans to hold the final round of their talent search in Los Angeles this March. Both Shamus and Matthew will be competing for cash prizes and a record contract under the direction of Gregory Ross, head of Flaxgold Entertainment. The finalists will visit Hollywood and perform at the Hollywood Palladium, a popular venue for aspiring artists. Members of the judges panel will include some well known musicians and employees of record labels such as the famous Motown Records. Shamus, a 28 year old native of Charlotte, North Carolina, says that he is excited about the opportunity, but says that he is not going to Hollywood with winning as his foremost concern. You never know what could happen. | am taking this opportunity as a chance to go to L.A. and network. Meeting other people that work in the industry is what is important at this point. Shamus has been doing hip-hop for at least thirteen years now. My music is not too different from anyone else's, however | do incorporate a variety of different cultures and vibes. Diversity is very important in my music. When asked to give his music a label Shamus stated that he liked to call it sci-fi hip-hop. Cullowhee hip-hop artists headed to talent search finals in Hollywood newsmagazine Matthew Ash, aka S.E.V.E.N., is also a native of North Carolina. Matthew hails from Kings Mountain and is 22 years old. He, like Shamus, hopes to meet people in the music business. Il want to expand my horizons not just in a musical sense, but also in a business sense. When dealing with the music industry it is just as important to have a good business sense as it is to have musical talent. The talent you have gets you there, but its your eye for business that keeps you in the industry. Matthew has been active in the hip-hop arena for about six years. My music is hip- hop, but its not the mainstream hip-hop that you hear on the radio or see on TV. My music speaks more on peace as opposed to controversy. The music | create is an attempt to take hip-hop back to its roots. The original intention of hip-hop was not to spread hate or to cause beef between artists; it was to challenge people lyrically and mentally. You dont have to be super hard or super black to create good hip- hop. You just have to speak the truth. The fact that these two young men have been given the opportunity to perform in Hollywood, California, illustrates a wonderful principle: it does not matter where you are from or where you are presently in your life, opportunities can arise out of no where. While hopes are high for Shamus and Matthew to perform well and win the talent search, they both seem to understand that there are more realistic and significant things that can be done to help themselves and their musical careers. Good luck and best wishes to Shamus and Matthew. the dust bunnies. make the project possible. Grapevine Grill & Pub bring food If a book collects dust in the bottom of Hunter Library, and no one is there to clean it, does it enlighten? Perhaps, if one eludes Dust bowls at Hunter Library by Brandon A. Robinson * WCnewsmagazine Since last fall, Hunter Library has undergone a comprehensive dusting project of its general collection stacks; comprehensive is the apt word, for we have approximately nine miles of shelving enough to cover the distance between WCU and Dillsboro! Shelf by shelf and book by book, the project is carried out by library student workers who focus exclusively on this for several hours a day. They commenced the project in the early fall and have covered about half the librarys general collection on the ground floor. By the end of this summer, Hunter Librarys ground floor collection will have been dustedfor the first time since the 1980's. University Librarian Bil Stahl set aside special funds to We appreciate the dedicated student workers who have labored over the dusting project: Travis Drake, Melissa Marton, Brittany McManus, Nathan Roberto and Gretchen Spencer. This latest endeavor is a part of Hunters ongoing efforts to make the library attractive and inviting for the campus community. = and fun to the university area by Margaret Hester WCnewsmagazine Anew means of entertainment has arrived in Sylva with the Grapevine Grill and Pub, offering something for everyone. With the recent closings of a few restaurants in the Sylva area, Grapevines plentiful menu is a welcome site to the area.

As of June 2004, a new bar was also added to the area with the opening of Grapevine. The Kitchen may close at 9pm, but that is only the beginning, thanks to the bar. This is a great place where students of age can relax and enjoy their nights with many different selections of beer and wine. However, on Wednesday and Thursday nights, things may get a little loud with Karaoke Night, also beginning at 9pm. Fabulous Friday is a great way to wrap up a long week of hard classes, with live music at Grapevine. The usual performers are Lisa Price, followed by the Imposters. However, other local acts are encouraged to join in the mix. Not only is Grapevine the perfect place for daily activity, it's also the perfect place for all functions.
