12 Bronco* Voicc March 1996 Arts & Entertainment Music News From UZI-D What’s up fellow Broncos? Once again, this is UZI- D with a quick music update for all you music heads o u t there. First things first, I want to nominate the Fu Gees for album of the year. The name of their album is The Score, and that’s what they did, indeed. From beginning to end Lauren, Wyclef, and Praz catch wreck musi cally and lyrically. For those who slept on the Fu Gees first time around, don’t get caught catching Z’s again. If you get a chance to see them in concert, you will be straight open like a n*@!$ on the Murk during payday weekend. Next is 2Pac with Eyes on Me. If you are a 2Pac fan then this is one to pick up. This is a double CD so look for spend ing damn near $30 if you want it. The phatest cut is “I’ve Got my Mind Made up” featuring the infamous Redman and Methodman who made the cut. Over all, the second book is better than the first book and the production is tight. Total’s album dropped as well and their name pretty much describes their singing. Total garbage. Of course the production is in there, but if you saw the Apollo perfor mance all respect (if any) is Totally gone. If it was not for recycled beats, they would be Totally forgotten. Another CD to check out For those who slept on the Fu Gees first time around, don^t get caught catchingZ^s again. is the debut from Mad Skillz entitled From Where?. The compilation from Erick Ser mon has been pushed back until further notice. The highly anticipated new sounds from Busta Rhyme come out around the 23rd of March— be sure to look for this one. Speaking of highly an ticipated, gospel lovers can look for a new Hezekiah Walker album coming out soon, along with the contem porary gospel sounds of Commissioned and Babbie Mason. For those, who broke their necks to see the so- called battle between MC Shan and KRS ONE, it was just a freakin’ commercial, but they did represent for 60 seconds. I would like to send big, big ups to my partner in crime, Affion Crocket for his performance on Def Comedy Jam and his other accomplishments. You ain’t heard the last of him yet! Also props go out to Southern Comfort, formerly Skin Deep, (and well-known to FSU) for landing their deal with Mecca Don records. Peep the next issue for further details about their debut. That’s all for now but I’ll catch you on the flipside if I missed something this time. Keep it real by keeping God in your life. Peace UZI-D. B.U.R.N.: An interview with Ganesa Robinson by Vadrin Colvin Ganesa Robinson, B.U.R.N. intern Fayetteville State Univer sity is now affiliated with the Black University Radio Net work (B.U.R.N.). B.U.R.N. has been created to provide news, entertainment, celebrity interviews, activities on black college campuses, and job op portunities to students of over 40 HBCU’s, including FSU. Entertainment 360, a new pro gram created by B.U.R.N., airs on WFSS 91.9 FM at 10:30pm Mon.-Fri. Ganesa Robinson, one of only nine students chosen from across the country as an intern for the B.U.R.N. net work, represents FSU. I got a chance to speak with “Ganesa Girl” (as she is known on her Thursday night radio show on WFSS) about the B.U.R.N. network and its new pro gram, Entertainment 360. 0: How did you hear of the B.U.R.N. internship? A: Pete, a staff member/DJ at WFSS, told me that I should apply for the po sition. So I did. Actually, there were flyers posted wanting interns. Q: What are your duties and responsibilities? A: I am responsible for pro moting and marketing the B.U.R.N.’s new radio pro gram, Entertainment 360. I also report weekly events that happen at FSU, along with any other student activities and concerns. Q: What is Entertainment 360? A: E-360 is a daily five minute entertainment news program that provides you with the latest scoop on you favorite celebrities. The people who bring you Radioscope, Lee Bailey Broadcasting, are the same people who invented E-360. Q: How does FSU benefit from being linked with B.U.R.N.? A: Because Coca-Cola is the sponsor, they are able to bring events, nation-wide events, to the campus of FSU, such as the “Pro Black College Tour” which will hit 10 HBCU’s across the country. They also would like to get involved with any on-campus activi ties that we have planned in the future. Also, they pro vide paid internships to stu dents interested in the pro gram. Q; How can others who are interested apply? A: They can contact me con cerning any questions they may have about the Network or E-360 at the campus ra dio station. I think it’s a great opportunity to gain experi ence in public relations, pro- STOPS ON THE NET For those travelers of the information super highway, and those of us who are just plain lost, we hope that these sites will be the map or a new pit stop in your travels.
