Rapper's Delight

The hip-hop from back in the day is sooo much different than now... It was a faster beat but not bass faster like today. The vocabulary is very different also!

RUF simply means Revolutionary United Front. This was a rebel army that fought a failed eleven year war in Sierra Leone. An amazing 100,000 child soldiers were reported as participants. Many were and still are being convicted and prosecuted.

Book Review of Wake

Wake is an okay book. It's a very girly book. I could not change books because I had over twenty pages read. This book is about little girl high school drama with boys, booze, and bad news. This girl goes from a shy quiet girl to a partying punk so to speak. The girl gets into the wrong crowd and is worried she will be blamed for the murder. I have only made it so far but I believe she will get caught and blamed for the murder of some kid. Her best friend is trying to save her.
