Scream: The series that revived the Slasher genre
The slasher genre has always been its own unique sub culture of horror films. From its humbled beginnings of Psycho (1960) from Alfred Hitchcock and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) from Tobe Hopper, to its golden age glory years of Halloween (1978), Friday the 13th (1980) and A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). There is just something about a horror villain with a blade who just snaps that really joneses horror fans.

Hip Hop Forever
This year marks the 50th birth year of Hip-Hop culture. I swear it feels like Hip Hop has been around much longer than that, well actually, it has been around a lot longer than most people realize. Hip Hop has helped to shape my life and mold me into the person I am today, so I had to write a tribute to Hip Hop during its 50 birthday, an ode to the music and culture which not only shaped me, but so many others like me.

Vocal’s Notifications. Top Story - February 2023.
I woke up one morning last week and found something very interesting when I checked my Vocal profile. There was a notifications icon right next to my profile picture. I have to say the site of that notification icon brought me a great deal of relief and joy. Every Vocal writer is about to do a lot better on this site for a number of major reasons.
