That album is Chris Bell’s I Am the Cosmos , which was first released by Rykodisc in 1992. It was culled from a number of studio sessions Bell did in the years before his untimely death in 1978. Bell left Big Star after #1 Record failed to chart, and...

Good Hair Directed by: Jeff Stilson Starring: Chris Rock, Nia Long, Ice-T, Al Sharpton, Maya Angelou, Eve, Tracie Thoms I have more rap albums than I have black friends on Facebook, and I don't have that many rap albums. There is and has always been a lot of black culture that I can only understand so much, but I never really thought about hair's role. It seems so simple - you grow it, you dye it,...
