These lyrics of both rappers seem eerily prescient in the wake of their murders. Both men were obsessed with death. Tupac repeatedly stated in interviews and on his records that he believed that he would die early. His last album, released posthumously under the alias Makaveli, features bitter and furious death threats aimed at New York rappers, including Biggie Smalls. Biggie also indicated that he feared and perhaps expected an early death. His first album was titled "Ready to Die;" his second album, "Life After Death," will be released March 25, and its cover art features the Notorious B.I.G. standing...
...lusher moments evoked the fine string writing of Vaughan Williams. Yu has a knack for the Spanish dance idiom--one hopes that he will conduct Ravel's "Alborada del Gracioso" in the near future.

Furious, Harvey called a top editor 18 times in one day in an unsuccessful attempt to keep the nonsecret a secret...

To them, allowing Serb control would in essence be a reward for ethnic cleansing. Sejfudin Zahirovic, deputy mayor in exile of Brcko, said local leaders were furious when they heard the reports. "We feel betrayed by the international community, especially the United States." The embattled town is crucial to both sides because of its strategic location. For the Serbs, Brcko sits on the narrow corridor that links the western and eastern parts of the Serb Republic. Meanwhile...
