At the celebration, the duo performed a Springsteen original, "The Ghost of Tom Joad," a song Rage Against the Machine covered on their 2000 release, "Renegades." The new collaborative version will appear on "High Hopes."
Kendrick Lamar has been making his way up the hip-hop ladder while collaborating with successful artists from the 1990s such as Jay-Z, Dr. Dre and Eminem. Lamar, who has been performing in hip-hop since the early 2000s but has only obtained wide recognition in recent years, features both

What's better than a master songwriter putting out a great song? Easy: two top-notch musicians teaming up on a track. Recent collaborative efforts have spanned styles as diverse as classic rock, hip-hop and electronica:

These collaborations are an innovative way to mix the new style of hip-hop with the old, and to provide a bridge between different generations of artists.
Electronic musician Avicii's upbeat single "Wake Me Up" features singer-songwriter Aloe Blacc's words and vocals. The song is currently ranked on the Billboard Top 100 at Number 5, and has been on the charts for 22 weeks straight. Though Blacc is not credited as one of the performers of the song, his songwriting and vocal performance have earned him recognition throughout the music world.

According to Pitchfork.com, Pearl Jam invited members of the band Sleater-Kinney, a 1990s band from Olympia, Wash., onto the stage at concerts in both Dallas and Portland this past month. Members of R.E.M were also spotted at the concert. The musicians covered "Rock'in in the Free World," a song off of Young's 1989 album, "Freedom."

HEALTH
Cold weather tips elevat diet, workout routine
SOPHIA TEMPLIN

It's that time of year again when we start gorging ourselves with homemade treats and eggnog. We swap the tank tops and booty shorts for large sweaters, puffy jackets and yoga pants. But focusing on fitness, sleep and cutting down on the Christmas cookies instead of on hiding weight can stave off the extra winter pounds.
FITNESS
"As the cold comes, people tend to want to want to hibernate a little bit more." Fortin said. "[Students need to be] thinking about scheduling exercise as if it were a class that they need to attend so that it's written in to their schedule. [They need to be] taking it seriously as if it were an appointment."
During the last month of the fall semester, schedules get busy and motivation to stay fit begins to fizzle. Kelsey Fortin, the Health Educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center, says that maintaining a physical activity schedule through the winter is key to keeping down weight.
Fortin also suggests bringing exercise equipment so that you don't have to go home in addition to finding a workout buddy who will hold you accountable. She also believes that students don't need to stop studying to workout. Students can record lectures and
listen to them while running, go through flash cards while holding a plank, read while on a stationary machine or run up and down the stairs at the library during a study break.
SLEEP:
"There's a lot of research out there that shows that breaks are extremely beneficial during studying time and also helps to keep your focus if you have that break, especially if you are doing something physically active because there's a lot of research that shows that physical activity and brain activity go together," Fortin said.
We all need sleep, but sleep doesn't only make our bodies well-rested; it's also been proven to be beneficial for weight loss. Countless research has been done relating sleep to weight loss. According to WebMD, sleep deprivation can cause our metabolism to slow down. You know what that means: no more potato chips during those all-nighters.
Dr. Michael Breus, author of Beauty Sleep and the clinical director of the sleep division for Arrowhead Health in Glendale, Ariz., explains that ghrelin and leptin hormones influence the sleep-weight loss relationship. Ghrelin tells the body when to eat and leptin tells the body when to stop. When we are sleep-deprived, we produce more ghrelin and less leptin, thus causing weight gain.
It's been proven that by getting about 7.5 hours of sleep a night, we can drop some unwanted pounds and be more well-rested.
DIET
With the winter months comes the return of warm comfort foods and holiday treats. In order to avoid only wearing sweats this winter, we need to be mindful of the pie we're shoveling down our throats. Maintaining a healthy diet is just as important in the winter months as it is during swimsuits season.
"You can't take off eating healthy," Fortin said. "There are no make-up days."
Instead of continuing down a path of "bad days," Fortin suggests modifying recipes and eating before parties to remedy cravings for unhealthy snacks.
There are other options than simply hibernating all winter. Don't stress out about both the end of the semester and looking good in your New Year's Eve outfit; realize you can do both by multitasking fitness and studying, turning down an extra piece of pie and getting a good night's sleep. Better nutrition, fitness and rest are all interwoven together, and when it comes time to transition from sweats to short shorts, you'll be ready.
