...Lil’,” the rap market has been devoid of an overpaid, asinine, inexplicably popular tyke. Chris Brown’s 13-year-old backup dancer Scooter Smiff (could anyone take him seriously with that name?) seems to be eager to fill the void. In his debut music video, “Head of My Class,” Smiff declares himself to be, well, the head of his class. His claim to fame as a dancer attracts all the ladies, despite his high voice and scrawny body screaming pre-pubescence. And it can?...
...brewing in Adams House, and it’s not just beer. Last week at Carpe Noctem—Adams’ answer to the other houses’ more plebeian Stein Clubs—a blonde ale called “Gold Room Gold” made its debut and house pride bubbled to the surface.

For all its novelties, that film...
...movie and then disappeared, Kanye West and Estelle bounced irresistibly delicious sounds back and forth from both sides of the Atlantic, but nothing really changed—nothing was really revolutionized. Hip-hop continued to sit quite comfortably in its own little groove. The Knux’s debut album, “Remind Me in 3 Days…” doesn’t necessarily change all this, but it tries to. In the process, the album also introduces a new and ambitious kind of hipster hip-hop—a repackaging of techno, jazz, rock, dance...
