Swizz Beatz’s wife literally wrote an open letter to Alicia asking her to leave her husband and her family alone. The letter is still online if you want to read it. Alicia did not care, obviously and stayed cheating with Swizz and now they’re married. People forget but Alicia was messy as hell for that.

She shouldn’t have pursued him, you’re right. At least it was a one time thing and she hasn’t done anything like it since.

Review : Joker (2019)

Cesar Romero transformed the character from an idea on a page to a villain on the screen. Jack Nicholson made the character cool. Mark Hamill gave the performance that most fans resonate with to this day. Heath Ledger pushed the boundaries of method acting, tainting the character with real life tragedy. Jared Leto made a mockery of the character. If the early critical and audience reactions mean anything, Joaquin Phoenix may soon be king of the iconic titular character of his latest film, Joker.

Aspiring comedian Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix) spends his days as a clown for hire at Ha-Ha’s, a day-labor company where Fleck floats from gig to gig picking up a fast buck. After being attacked by a group of kids, Arthur’s co-worker Randall (Glenn Fleshler) gives him a gun so that he can protect himself. When not working, Arthur cares for his sick mother Penny Fleck (Frances Conroy), who spends her time watching late-night TV host Murray Franklin (Robert De Niro) and writing mysterious letters to billionaire Thomas Wayne (Brett Cullen). After meeting single mother Sophie (Zazie Beetz) and inviting her to a comedy show, Arthur is soon fired from his job when a gun falls out of his pant leg during a performance at a children’s hospital. While riding home from his firing, Arthur is accosted by three businessmen on the subway, and in an act of self-defense turned murder, he kills all three. The killing gives Arthur a sense of purpose and self-understanding that he had yet to experience, sending him on a path of chaos and destruction, all in the name of further self-understanding.

Joker is an incredibly unique approach to an iconic character, and a breath of fresh air in terms of a character study in terms of execution. Due to the history of the Joker character in terms of his clear actions set against his purposely vague origin, we are presented with what I’ve dubbed a ‘front-loaded backstory’, where we are searching for starting points to understand and connect to the Joker moments we know so well. Much of that is presented in terms of Arther Fleck’s mental disorder that he shares with his mother, his mother’s deception in regards to her connection with Thomas Wayne and Arthur’s familial origins, and how Arthur views society at large. His laugh is connected to his disorder, his garb and clown makeup is attributed to his former job and comedic aspirations, and his undying connection to Batman is further enhanced due to a purposefully messy origin story. His nihilistic nature is really what is focused on and explored in Joker, as Fleck learns that his wiring causes him to find pleasure in what should be pain, while simultaneously inspiring many in similar positions to take to the streets in protest of the same things that scare and sadde Fleck.

The world that Todd Phillips creates was the most fascinating part of the film, in my opinion. The classic Warner Brothers logo and titling make the film feel old, as well as the color timing and some of the costuming, but there are many modern day elements present as well, like the Wayne subway system or the graffiti found throughout the city. Gotham and Arkham Asylum are both mentioned directly, but there are many heavy allusions to New York as well : the sanitation workers strike, the rat epidemic, and Fleck’s bizarro-world Donald Goines style killing all echo New York more so than fictional Gotham. Wall Street is even mentioned directly in regards to the three Wayne Enterprises workers. There is also a nice mix of direct and indirect (in my opinion) references to a handful of films... Taxi Driver and You Were Never Really Here need no explanation, nor does The King of Comedy (which works subtly due to the Fleck character, and directly due to Robert De Niro appearing in both films). Some of the more unique references, however, are found when we take a closer look at Fleck... his connection with his mother and their fascination with TV gave me Requiem for a Dream feels. His delusional nature and the way he projects his thoughts onto the world felt similar to Jacob’s Ladder at times. Even Fleck’s self-aggrandizing dances, specifically the one he does in the bathroom after finding his power in the wake of killing the Wayne Enterprises workers, gave me feels of John Cusack’s dance he does for Catherine Keener after bedding her in Being John Malkovich. All of this texture, combined with the blurring of lines between Gotham and New York, is really what makes this film work.

On a technical level, this film is an astonishing achievement for Phillips, and one that shows incredible growth as a director. The dark, reality-based humor from some of his lighter films is present, but the laser focus on it puts it front and center as the driving force that inspires his Fleck character. The brooding score is offset by unique, upbeat music cues, bringing a manic-depressive feel to the soundtrack of the film. Phillips uses EXTREMELY subtle touches to differentiate between Joker’s real and delusional moments, but the subtlety is so nuanced that it is not always immediately obvious in regards to the nature of what we’re seeing. Joker’s wardrobe and makeup dance around the traditional presentation of the iconic comic and film character for the majority of the film, eventually landing on something that is close enough to the standard presentation, while still being unique to the world created by Phillips for Joker. The textured city, as well as the unclear time/era of the film due to allusions to real moments in New York history, gives the narrative an uncanny valley feel while we search for something distinguishing to hang onto the film in terms of era and location.

While many have been surprised by the depth of Joaquin Phoenix’s performance, it seems to me that he channeled the best parts of his performances in The Master and You Were Never Really Here in order to hone on in the troubled persona that alludes to the creation of the Joker. Robert De Niro brings the charm of a late night host and comedian that translates into a sort of fatherly inspiration for the Fleck character, paralleling the characters as diametric opposites, and fueling the fire for their eventual meeting. Frances Conroy is a living mirror to hold up against Phoenix in terms of the troubled mindstate he portrays, and the possibility/inevitability of his future. Zazie Beatz is used mostly in an accessory manner, but her presence helps stir the pot of confusion in terms of reality and delusion, based on her demeanor. Brett Cullen brings a darker, sinister and less humane feel to the Wayne patriarch, symbolizing human greed and power more so than class and admirable qualities. Glenn Fleshler allows himself to wallow in a swinging, two-face nature that sways from ‘friend’ to ‘foe’, sometimes within the same conversation, towards the Fleck character and his coworkers. Bill Camp and Shea Whigham get to dive into the old school NYPD detective energy, channeling films like The French Connection despite their small role. Brief appearances by Marc Maron, Leigh Gill, Josh Pais, Brian Tyree Henry, Douglas Hodge, Bryan Callen and Justin Theroux (uncredited) round things out.

I think due to my personal connection with Heath Ledger’s career (and my personal dislike of it), and the way he won my respect in his portrayal of the Joker, he will always be my choice for the best. That being said, Joker is a true shining achievement on the level of Logan in terms of how it takes a superhero/comic property and turns it into a gripping, emotional film. As much as I’d like to see a Joaquin Phoenix-style Joker butt heads with a Robert Pattison-portrayed Batman, I am willing to accept this project as the beautiful one-off that it has been advertised to be. Definitely worth seeing, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it makes some noise when awards season arrives.

Jay Electronica’s ‘A Written Testimony’ Struggles Under Weight Of Expectations But Delivers Glimpses Of Greatness [Review]

Source: Theo Wargo / Getty

Jay Electronica is a highly-gifted enigma of an artist, that much about him cannot be argued on any level. But more than that, he, like many other creatives, are hesitant to share their art due to critiques like the one to follow and his debut album, A Written Testimony, shows the promise of what should have been and perhaps what could come.

Because of the nature of social media and the thirst to be first, listeners have been divided by either praising the album or flat out calling it a failure after just three days since its Friday (March 13) release. Some observers feel that A Written Testimony isn’t a true debut as it prominently features Roc Nation honcho Jay-Z, who delivers scene-stealing performances on each of his appearances. It is our opinion that this fact should not cloud your experience.

After giving the project around two dozen spins in several environments, what cut through overall is that Jay Electronica has an undeniable presence, no doubt bolstered by the mystique that swirls around him. His baritone voice and sometimes imperfect diction force one to lean in and absorb his lyrics, peeling layers back after repeated listens. The mastery of words and the reverence he consistently pays to his Islamic faith is refreshing and necessary in an age where depravity rules.

It is nearly impossible to go into A Written Testimony without hauling in the hype that surrounded Electronica in 2009 with the release of his still-potent Just Blaze-produced single “Exhibit C,” which stands as perhaps the best display of his formidable gifts. And it should be said that Electronica’s pen is still razor-sharp across the 10 tracks that make up the debut but the heavy lifting wasn’t done alone and that can’t be glossed over.

The album opens with one of Electronica’s favored methods of using speeches and obscure music soundtracks to set the table. The self-produced “The Overwhelming Event” features the voice of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam delivering a speech that ushers in the tone of the album and leads into the blistering “Ghost of Soulja Slim,” opening again with a speech from Farrakhan and then blends into Jay-Z’s verse.

At 50, Hov’s pen is sharp as ever and the looseness of the style he employs over Electronica’s murky sample will go down as one of the best performances of the year. But as unorthodox and slippery as Jay-Z was, Jay Electronica matches it with an equally dextrous display. The album then moves into “The Blinding” and is one of the few tracks not helmed by Electronica with G. Ry, AraabMUZIK, Hit-Boy and Swizz Beatz on the boards and Travis Scott on the hook.

Jay Elec’s vulnerability placed next to Hov’s confidence is notable, but one wonders if more outside production would have given way to more complete-sounding songs such as this one. The Alchemist provided one of his drumless loop-heavy offerings for “The Neverending Story,” and Elec and Hov again drop kingly bars in talking voice tones that melt into the production effortlessly.

This track, while lyrically precise, highlights a flaw that A Written Testimony is devoid of anything that can be played on big speakers. It isn’t known how he would tour this album because, largely, the album lacks the knock of “Exhibit C” and of course, it’s understood that lyrics should be the focus yet it feels as if there was a missed opportunity to attract the casual fan or the curious in favor of esotericism.

Another knock on the album is the inclusion of the previously-released “Shiny Suit Theory,” an amazing song featuring The-Dream that’s nearly as old as the aforementioned “Exhibit C” but should have been omitted or at least updated. Once again, the track lacks drums and sucks out the potential momentum of the project that does get a jolt from the excellent “Universal Soldier” which features vocals from James Blake. That good favor is undone with the messy “Flux Capacitor” which pays homage to New Orleans rapper Big Elt’s “Get The Gat” song and uses the format of the song for its hook.

Making no bones about it, Jay-Z outshines Jay Elec, who either wasn’t in tune with the beat or was going for an intentionally off-kilter style. Either way, it is completely jarring how out of place the track sounds in the context of the rest of the project. Courses are corrected with “Fruits Of The Spirit” with No I.D. on the production and Jay Elec delivering a performance that is among the best of his career, although the song is short in length.

To go back to what we said about the promise of the album, “Ezekiel’s Wheel” featuring Jay-Z on the hook and bridge along with The-Dream showcases what should have been the running theme of the album. Confidence and clarity are the aims of this record and while we learn nothing new in the decade and more that we’ve waited for him, Jay Elec is content with keeping himself shrouded from the outside world on his terms.

The project ends with the somber “A.P.I.D.T.A.” and was apparently recorded the same day the world was shaken by the news that Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and the other families lives were lost in the horrific crash that many are still processing. The heaviness of the mood is apparent in both Hov’s chorus and the weariness in Elec’s vocals. In many ways, it’s made sense to end the album on this note considering the pace never truly quickened much and whatever points that needed to be made were done to Elec’s specifications.

A Written Testimony isn’t perfect. At times, it feels like a miscalculated attempt for Jay Electronica to assert himself as one of the greats as he’s long been hailed. Yes, we’ve finally got a project, and it isn’t Act II: Patents Of Nobility but it’s something we can collectively hold on to. As with Act I: The Pledge, which opens with Just Blaze and Erykah Badu both praising Elec’s genius and also mentioning his reluctance to step into the spotlight, he is still contending with the expectations of being a grandmaster of his field. If nothing else, Jay Elec should know Hip-Hop needed him back and this feels like an appetizer with all due respect.

With the doubts put to rest that he can put out music and still hold his own in the booth, may we all be so lucky to hear more of Jay Electronica’s greatness sooner than later.
