What would happen if a lyrical genius disguised himself as a musical madman? He'd be an acid-rapper, of course. Esham, widely considered the granddaddy of the Rock-Rap genre, and his group Natas release their highly anticipated original album, N Of Tha World (Warlock Records) on January 24, 2006, four years after their last recording together.
Often thought of as a sage Rap prodigy by Hip-Hop's cognoscenti, Esham's fork-tongued lyrics and acerbic wit form the basis of his rhymes, many of which are critical of the country's current political and social climate. For a Rap artist frequently credited for influencing death-metal acts like Slipknot and Marilyn Manson, as well as Rap-Rockers like Kid Rock and Eminem, the most unexpected aspect of Esham may be his love for classic Philadelphia soul and contemporary blues....

Geraldine Hayes needs an immediate transport from Jacksonville, FL, to a receiving medical facility in New Jersey for emergency treatment of a deadly dinner plate-sized decubitus ulcer (bed wound) which is infecting the now exposed bone structure and ligaments of her sacral area. Mrs. Hayes is also suffering from a GI bleed.
Despite her immediate need, Mrs. Hayes is going nowhere - her remaining Medicare coverage was illegally billed and collected by Halifax Hospital, the facility where she obtained the wound. The county hospital billed for nearly $1 million, collecting $286,101 in Medicare payments for Mrs. Hayes' unusually long stay of six months. Meanwhile, Mrs. Hayes remains barred from her transport and the treatment she must have - because she cannot pay for it. Medicare launched what may be a two or three week investigation on Friday, March 14.... (Continue reading)
