'Nothing Was The Same'has less tears,more variety

MUSIC
For many hardcore hip-hop fans, rapper Aubrey "Drake" Graham is the scariest thing to hit the genre since Vanilla Ice. He's seen as a crusader in a long, flowing cape of tender emotion — possibly made of pink cashmere and real butterfly wings — sent from a faraway planet called Canada to mercilessly suck the "gangsta" out of gangsta rap.
In other words, if Kendrick Lamar is the Coca-Cola of rap right now, Drake is the Diet Sierra Mist. He's the marshmallowy Hostess Sno Ball that got dropped into the Nestle Crunch box. Some might even say the average storm drain in August flows harder than the Cash Money Records signee.
And yet, even the harshest critics would be hard-pressed to deny that the man churns out some ridiculously catchy songs. Even before Tuesday's release of his newest album, "Nothing Was The Same," Drake had already surpassed Jay-Z as the "rapper with the most No. 1s in the history of the R&B/Hip-Hop songs chart," according to a 2012 article on Bill-
jams are more dynamic than the typical singsong rap ballads expected from Drake. Both feature talented singers in Jhene Aiko and Sampha, respectively, who inject some real soulfulness. In fact, it's impressive that Drake chose to give such lesser-known artists a chance rather than reaching for the standard Lloyd or Rihanna R&B hook. Jay-Z does make an appearance on "Pound Cake / Paris Morton Music 2," however, presumably just so he could drop the line, "Look at my neck, I got a karat cake."

While Drake decidedly lacks a street-smart resume (refer to his history as an actor on Nickelodeon's "Degrassi," his laughable "beef" with Common, the list goes on), he admirably never shies away from his past. In fact, that willingness to appear vulnerable is a big reason why Drake's fans love him so much. For better or for worse, he's not afraid to follow the line, "Just drop down and get ya' eagle on" with "We can stare up at the stars and put The Beatles on."

"Nothing Was The Same," while essentially a more cohesive version of his last album "Take Care," thankfully cuts back on the Kleenex and teddy bear factor. Standout tracks such as "Wu-Tang Forever," "Started From the Bottom" and "All Me" are upbeat and highlight Drake's unique, higher-pitched voice that's more of a Yung Berg groan than a Lil' Boosie snarl.
With "Nothing Was The Same," Drake and his production team have created a multifaceted collection of songs in which piano chords are as common as 808 drums. To the vehement Drake haters: the album is worth a full listen. It might even make you forget about Jimmy Brooks — at least temporarily.
Even "From Time" and "Too Much," the album's clear-cut slow

BELFAST, Northern Ireland — An anti-war theater troupe traveling from Northern Ireland to Bosnia says four of its members were arrested at a Belfast airport after security officials found bullets inside a costume.

National Student Day
National Student Day is an event sponsored by the National Association of College Stores to recognize and celebrate student volunteerism and social responsibility.
A national online contest associated with the event runs August 1 - October 17 this year. Students submit accounts of their volunteerism experiences, which are then voted on for awards of cash prizes and iPads. The KUBookstore is registered as a 2013 participating store and has a link with context information and submission details on their website, KUBookstore.com.
On October 3, college stores nationwide will celebrate the 3rd annual National Student Day with in-store activities. The KU Bookstore event, held at the Kansas Union location, runs from noon to 3:00 pm that day, and will support the Lawrence for Literacy Book Drive. These in-store events are planned:
- All Alta Gracia Living Wage
All Alta Gracia Living Wage Apparel will be 25% off the event, with the equivalent of 15% of sales donated to the drive for new children's books.
• In stock children's books are 25% off for those who wish to
make a direct donation to the dmv
Two free service opportunities for
students will also be offered at the
KU Bookstore:
*Write cards that the Bookstore will send to children's hospitals, Meals on Wheels clients, nursing homes, or troops overseas.*
*Write cards that the Bookstore will send to children's hospitals, Meals on Wheels clients, nursing
homes, or troops overseas.
Other in-store events that day include sampling and free items-with-purchase of the Come Ready line of protein bars and a spin-the-wheel game for Bookstore coupons and prizes. Finally, prize drawings for an iPad Mini donated by the Kansas Union, $100 and $50 KU Bookstore gift cards, and two iTunes gift cards will also take place.
You're in the KU Bookstore all the time anyway. Why not stop by on October 3 and do something nice for someone deserving? Remember too that since 1946, the proceeds from every KU Bookstore purchase are reinvested back into the Kansas Memorial Unions to support student jobs and student success.
