Well, there's Nicki Minaj, and... uh... well, we almost had Lauryn Hill, but then she kind of went crazy... Oh, and Missy Elliot, but she came and went pretty fast.

[Peanutbutter]

Eh, does anyone really take Nicki Minaj that seriously though?


Anyway, I meant to put "white" in my post originally, but Holy Crap you're right about there really not being a prominent black female rapper either. 

[Avaitor]

To be fair, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is one of the best rap albums of all time, and both Missy and even Nicki have some good songs. But yeah, rap is more of a dude's game.

Linkara celebrates 300 episodes of Atop the 4th Wall by reviewing what is possibly the WORST comic he's ever had to review!

[Dr. Insomniac]

I'm still waiting for him to do a recent Alan Moore comic.

This doesn't argue against what you've said in any way but, let's not forget: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlWRhnYgWcc
She's been pretty quiet since "1991" but... she's out there.

Oh, and... Peaches raps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OufjMK0AHQw I'd consider her prominent enough, she's been doing it for a decade at least.

Another Todd review. I don't really know the song, but it's a decent vid.

This week the Nostalgia Critic examines the strengths and weaknesses of movies that do not follow a traditional narrative structure by asking the question: Is Tree of Life Full of Shit?

[Daikun]

It's funny how he barely talks about Tree of Life at all, despite the video title.

[LumRanmaYasha]

Well, I don't think that wasn't the real point of the video. He just used the question as a starting off point to explore what makes a narrativeless film work, which is clearly what he really wanted to talk about. He could have chose any film similar to Tree of Life as that starting off point, and it wouldn't have made a difference, but he likely chose it because 1. it's well-known and 2. it exemplifies many qualities about such films he wanted to discuss.

In a new episode of Shut Up and Talk, Doug interviews everyone's favorite hooded pop song reviewer, Todd in the Shadows.

[talonmalon333]

By the way, even though I did remember his review being funny, am I the only one who wonders if it was necessary for Doug to review Commando? I mean, it's a silly film, but it's not like it was unintentional.

This week, the NC teams up with Linkara and Spoony to take a look at the horrifyingly bad Bloodrayne.

[Avaitor]

Look who's back for the new NC!

Todd's Tweeting about the Madonna movie, Swept Away... could he be... oh, please tell me he's... thinking about doing another movie review. I loved his reviews of Glitter and Burlesque. And he barely talked about the songs in Glitter, so, it wouldn't be crazy to review this movie even though it's not a musical. The only song Madonna performs is a lip-sync. Well, she croaks out a few tiny bits of a Della Reese song. Yeah- that's Della Reese of Touched by an Angel fame.



EDIT: He was also talking a lot of shit about Revolver. I thought for a second he was talking about the Madonna song from 2009. But, no, he meant the Guy Richie movie. Of course, they were still married in 2009. (Immediately runs and checks Google... the movie was released in 2005.)
