Comparing its flyers in years past (always the subject of font-size analysis and \u003ca href=\"https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6458238/band-names-font-sizes-music-festival-posters-artists\">behind-the-scenes power brokering\u003c/a> over it) to this edition, rap and hip-hop have clearly risen to the top of pop culture. Contrasting Coachella’s lineup 10 years ago — with Jack Johnson, Prince and Roger Waters headlining — 2018’s seems to show, at least in its top billings, rap and R&B taking over the center of the landscape. But also, further down in the font sizing, its bookings of Princess Nokia, Jidenna, Moses Sumney, Kamaiyah, Aminé, DeJ Loaf and producer TroyBoi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is an important first this year, too: Beyonce’s performance on Saturday marks the first time that a black woman will headline. The superstar was supposed to headline the festival last year, but had to pull out of the slot after becoming pregnant, and was later \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2017/03/01/517908059/lady-gaga-replaces-beyonc-at-coachella\">replaced by Lady Gaga\u003c/a>. This year’s April dates will also be Beyonce’s first performance since giving birth to her twins in June 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though Eminem hasn’t performed on the Coachella stage since his 2012 appearance with Dr. Dre, the \u003ca href=\"https://www.governorsballmusicfestival.com/lineup/\">2018 Governor’s Ball lineup\u003c/a> announcement today is a clear inkling that the diamond-selling Detroit rapper will be hitting the festival circuit hard this summer in support of his recent album \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/12/16/571171947/i-speak-to-everybody-who-is-even-remotely-like-me-eminem-on-revival\">\u003cem>Revival\u003c/em>\u003c/a>.

"content": "\u003cp>Long before the Migos flow saturated the FM dial, a Vallejo rapper named Mac Dre was perfecting the absurdist call-and-response. Now, more than a decade after Dre’s untimely passing, the Bay Area has another promising hip-hop hero: Nef The Pharaoh, a young E-40 protégé hailing from the Valley-Jo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nef’s 2017 mixtape, \u003cem>The Chang Project\u003c/em>, is unmistakably a Bay Area affair. But Nef demonstrates his broader ambitions from the jump, merging 707 swag with prevailing trends in chart-topping hip-hop. The lead track, “Chang You Are My Life,” features production that borrows from the Dirty South: trilling, rapid-fire hi-hats, screwed-down vocal manipulations, and a spacey, EDM-inflected sheen. However, the song’s bass line makes it clear that Neffie remains loyal to his hometown.

Now, more than a decade after Dre’s untimely passing, the Bay Area has another promising hip-hop hero: Nef The Pharaoh, a young E-40 protégé hailing from the Valley-Jo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nef’s 2017 mixtape, \u003cem>The Chang Project\u003c/em>, is unmistakably a Bay Area affair. But Nef demonstrates his broader ambitions from the jump, merging 707 swag with prevailing trends in chart-topping hip-hop. The lead track, “Chang You Are My Life,” features production that borrows from the Dirty South: trilling, rapid-fire hi-hats, screwed-down vocal manipulations, and a spacey, EDM-inflected sheen. However, the song’s bass line makes it clear that Neffie remains loyal to his hometown. It’s raspy, raw, and undeniably buoyant, recalling some of the grittiest passages from the Luniz’s seminal \u003cem>Operation Stackola\u003c/em> and the bacchanal energy of Mac Dre’s “Feelin’ Myself.”\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/FJVxiyiVflg'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/FJVxiyiVflg'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>If “Chang You Are My Life” fuses ’90s Bay grooves and modern trap flourishes, the tape’s second track, “Out There,” grafts tropical bass tones onto a golden-era East Coast classic, merging a clonking marimba melody with the shimmying, tribal beat from Busta Rhymes’ innovative 1997 track “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although \u003cem>The Chang Project\u003c/em> makes gestures of respect to those who have come before, it also looks with determination toward the future.

In his statement, Simmons acknowledges Lumet’s allegation but only admits to being “thoughtless and insensitive in some of my relationships over many decades.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/writer-jenny-lumet-russell-simmons-sexually-violated-me-guest-column-1062934\">her letter\u003c/a>, Lumet — who is a story writer on the Tom Cruise film \u003cem>The Mummy\u003c/em>, which was released this year, and the daughter of director Sidney Lumet — writes that Simmons had expressed romantic interest in her prior to the night of the alleged assault, sending her 250 balloons. Some time after, she says, Simmons offered her a ride home after a dinner but then directed his driver to take them to Simmons’ home, despite her repeated requests to be driven to her home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I felt dread and disorientation,” she writes, “I wanted to go home. I said I wanted to go home. I didn’t recognize the man next to me. I didn’t know if the situation would turn violent. I remember thinking that I must be crazy; I remember hoping that the Russell I knew would return any moment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Alone in the elevator” to Simmons’ apartment, Lumet continues, “you pressed me into the corner with your body, your hands and your mouth.” She then describes making “the trade in my mind” and acquiescing to sex with Simmons, fearing for her safety if she refused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Nov. 19, the model Keri Claussen Khalighi also levied allegations of sexual assault against Simmons, \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-brett-ratner-russell-simmons-20171119-htmlstory.html\">telling The Los Angeles Times\u003c/a> that Simmons and the director Brett Ratner — himself the subject of sexual assault allegations by six women, also reported \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-brett-ratner-allegations-20171101-htmlstory.html\">by the Times\u003c/a> — had invited her back to Ratner’s apartment. There, the newspaper writes, Simmons reportedly began “yanking off” Khalighi’s clothes and “tried to force her to have intercourse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Khalighi said the assault occurred in 1991, the same year Lumet said she was assaulted by Simmons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/UncleRUSH/status/932249961638584320\">denied\u003c/a> Khalighi’s accusations the day they were published, writing that their interaction was “completely consensual and with Keri’s full participation.” He continued: “Let me be crystal clear and very direct. Abusing women in any way shape or form violates the very core of my being.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons is best-known as the co-founder Def Jam Recordings, one of the keystone labels in the history of hip-hop, which he and Rick Rubin famously began in Rubin’s New York University dorm room. Rubin sold his portion of the company to Simmons four years after the label’s founding. In 1999, Simmons sold off his stake in the label to Universal Music Group for a reported $100 million. In the years since, Simmons has been a producer, writer and guest star on the reality series \u003cem>Run’s House\u003c/em>, starring Reverend Run of Run-DMC. The hip-hop group helped establish Def Jam as a cornerstone in the mainstream development of hip-hop.

In his statement, Simmons acknowledges Lumet’s allegation but only admits to being “thoughtless and insensitive in some of my relationships over many decades.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/writer-jenny-lumet-russell-simmons-sexually-violated-me-guest-column-1062934\">her letter\u003c/a>, Lumet — who is a story writer on the Tom Cruise film \u003cem>The Mummy\u003c/em>, which was released this year, and the daughter of director Sidney Lumet — writes that Simmons had expressed romantic interest in her prior to the night of the alleged assault, sending her 250 balloons. Some time after, she says, Simmons offered her a ride home after a dinner but then directed his driver to take them to Simmons’ home, despite her repeated requests to be driven to her home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I felt dread and disorientation,” she writes, “I wanted to go home. I said I wanted to go home. I didn’t recognize the man next to me. I didn’t know if the situation would turn violent. I remember thinking that I must be crazy; I remember hoping that the Russell I knew would return any moment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Alone in the elevator” to Simmons’ apartment, Lumet continues, “you pressed me into the corner with your body, your hands and your mouth.” She then describes making “the trade in my mind” and acquiescing to sex with Simmons, fearing for her safety if she refused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

There, the newspaper writes, Simmons reportedly began “yanking off” Khalighi’s clothes and “tried to force her to have intercourse.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Khalighi said the assault occurred in 1991, the same year Lumet said she was assaulted by Simmons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/UncleRUSH/status/932249961638584320\">denied\u003c/a> Khalighi’s accusations the day they were published, writing that their interaction was “completely consensual and with Keri’s full participation.” He continued: “Let me be crystal clear and very direct. Abusing women in any way shape or form violates the very core of my being.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons is best-known as the co-founder Def Jam Recordings, one of the keystone labels in the history of hip-hop, which he and Rick Rubin famously began in Rubin’s New York University dorm room. Rubin sold his portion of the company to Simmons four years after the label’s founding. In 1999, Simmons sold off his stake in the label to Universal Music Group for a reported $100 million. In the years since, Simmons has been a producer, writer and guest star on the reality series \u003cem>Run’s House\u003c/em>, starring Reverend Run of Run-DMC. The hip-hop group helped establish Def Jam as a cornerstone in the mainstream development of hip-hop. Simmons has founded several other companies, most recently digital media startup All Def Digital.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A representative for Def Jam declined to comment; All Def Digital couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Simmons is the latest high-profile figure — including \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/11/28/567026934/npr-chief-news-editor-departs-in-wake-of-harassment-allegations\">two senior news executives\u003c/a> at NPR — forced to publicly reckon with damaging allegations of sexual misconduct against women.

In response to liberal outrage against these hate groups, many people and institutions — like the \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/blog/free-speech/how-could-you-represent-someone-milo-yiannopoulos?redirect=blog/speak-freely/how-could-you-represent-someone-milo-yiannopoulos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ACLU\u003c/a> — have become concerned with defending extreme right-wing speech to preserve the sanctity of free speech for all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what separates free speech from hate speech is the intent to incite violence: In September, for example, Milo Yiannopolous posted photos and identifying information of two UC Berkeley students who vocally opposed his campus appearance, exposing them to \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailycal.org/2017/09/21/uc-berkeley-students-harassed-after-milo-yiannopoulos-publicly-identifies-them/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">death threats from his supporters\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s disconcerting enough. But as Joseph Bernstein revealed in his Buzzfeed report, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/josephbernstein/heres-how-breitbart-and-milo-smuggled-white-nationalism?utm_term=.ymY5Jq0YB#.xprqLdKBZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Here’s How Breitbart and Milo Smuggled Nazi and White Nationalist Ideas Into The Mainstream\u003c/a>,” even while Yiannopoulos may not explicitly call for violence against minorities himself, he sources his ideology directly from white supremacists and neo-Nazis who advocate for ethnic cleansing. It follows, then, that violence seems to trail Yiannopoulos wherever he goes: For the past month since his Sept. 24 appearance in Berkeley, for instance, his supporters have \u003ca href=\"https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/bookselling/article/75137-revolution-books-confronted-by-conservative-activists.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">led a harassment campaign\u003c/a> against Berkeley’s Revolution Books, at one point elbowing a bookstore supporter in the face and breaking his glasses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s ironic that while well-meaning liberals and moderates rally around protecting neo-Nazis’ free speech, people like Lil B who are most vulnerable to real-life ramifications of hate speech are censored on social media platforms for speaking out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Do the white nationalist or the kkk or Neo nazis really hate me?

He often writes as if he’s thinking through controversial issues aloud in real time, and up until the Facebook ban, he had been posting prolifically about systemic racism and racial divisions in the current political climate. Someone who’s followed him for more than a few months would be able to tell that his posts about white people and guns were hyperbolic — and a legitimate reaction to the Las Vegas shooting and the oft-ignored issue of white terrorism in America. But Facebook’s content monitors clearly missed the nuance of his message and banned him based on two posts without considering their context.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ban for hate speech is particularly ironic given that Lil B is most famous using his social media platforms to preach positivity. As I’ve observed through following him on social media for nearly ten years, he mostly uses his platforms to advocate for human rights, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2014/12/17/thank-you-based-god-10-reasons-why-you-should-see-lil-b-this-weekend/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">animal rights, and the environment\u003c/a> and promote peace. For instance, after A Boogie wit da Hoodie and his crew jumped Lil B at the \u003ca href=\"https://www.thefader.com/2017/10/23/lil-b-a-boogie-squashed-beef-after-rolling-loud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rolling Loud\u003c/a> festival last weekend, Lil B took to social media to preach a message of forgiveness instead of retaliating. Nothing about his social media presence — including those posts that got him banned — could be construed as inciting violence, which is the true definition of hate speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.propublica.org/article/facebook-hate-speech-censorship-internal-documents-algorithms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ProPublica report\u003c/a> detailing Facebook’s hate speech policy, hate speech is defined on the platform as an attack against a “protected category” of people, which includes race, gender, and religious affiliation. But the policy — which has been widely criticized as convoluted and inconsistently enforced — doesn’t protect “subsets” of people. One training document showed that according to Facebook’s content moderators, making posts about “white men” is out, but “black doctors” or “female employees” don’t get the same protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In practice, this policy plays out counterintuitively: White supremacists have found ways to veil their hate speech — justifying posts of anti-black racism with crime statistics, for instance — to evade Facebook’s content monitors. Black Lives Matter activist \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@thedididelgado/mark-zuckerberg-hates-black-people-ae65426e3d2a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Didi Delgado\u003c/a> was banned from Facebook for a week for writing “White people are racist,” while \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/search/str/clay+higgins+kill+them+all/keywords_blended_featured_posts?esd=eyJlc2lkIjoiUzpfSTU4MTQzNjU0MTk1OTM2MjpWSzo5OTc4NzgwMTAzMTUyMTEiLCJwc2lkIjp7IjU4MTQzNjU0MTk1OTM2Mjo5OTc4NzgwMTAzMTUyMTEiOiJVenBmU1RVNE1UUXpOalUwTVRrMU9UTTJNanBXU3pvNU9UYzROemd3TVRBek1UVXlNVEU9In0sImNyY3QiOiJ0ZXh0IiwiY3NpZCI6IjNiMTk0M2ZiYTE5MGYwMzMxZjRjYjlkMjE0OGMzOGI1In0%3D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Congressman Clay Higgins\u003c/a>, a Republican from Louisiana, received no repercussions from the company for advocating for the deaths of radicalized Muslims, posting “Hunt them, identify them, and kill them.

In response to liberal outrage against these hate groups, many people and institutions — like the \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/blog/free-speech/how-could-you-represent-someone-milo-yiannopoulos?redirect=blog/speak-freely/how-could-you-represent-someone-milo-yiannopoulos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ACLU\u003c/a> — have become concerned with defending extreme right-wing speech to preserve the sanctity of free speech for all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what separates free speech from hate speech is the intent to incite violence: In September, for example, Milo Yiannopolous posted photos and identifying information of two UC Berkeley students who vocally opposed his campus appearance, exposing them to \u003ca href=\"http://www.dailycal.org/2017/09/21/uc-berkeley-students-harassed-after-milo-yiannopoulos-publicly-identifies-them/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">death threats from his supporters\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s disconcerting enough. But as Joseph Bernstein revealed in his Buzzfeed report, “\u003ca href=\"https://www.buzzfeed.com/josephbernstein/heres-how-breitbart-and-milo-smuggled-white-nationalism?utm_term=.ymY5Jq0YB#.xprqLdKBZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Here’s How Breitbart and Milo Smuggled Nazi and White Nationalist Ideas Into The Mainstream\u003c/a>,” even while Yiannopoulos may not explicitly call for violence against minorities himself, he sources his ideology directly from white supremacists and neo-Nazis who advocate for ethnic cleansing. It follows, then, that violence seems to trail Yiannopoulos wherever he goes: For the past month since his Sept. 24 appearance in Berkeley, for instance, his supporters have \u003ca href=\"https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/bookselling/article/75137-revolution-books-confronted-by-conservative-activists.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">led a harassment campaign\u003c/a> against Berkeley’s Revolution Books, at one point elbowing a bookstore supporter in the face and breaking his glasses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He often writes as if he’s thinking through controversial issues aloud in real time, and up until the Facebook ban, he had been posting prolifically about systemic racism and racial divisions in the current political climate. Someone who’s followed him for more than a few months would be able to tell that his posts about white people and guns were hyperbolic — and a legitimate reaction to the Las Vegas shooting and the oft-ignored issue of white terrorism in America. But Facebook’s content monitors clearly missed the nuance of his message and banned him based on two posts without considering their context.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ban for hate speech is particularly ironic given that Lil B is most famous using his social media platforms to preach positivity. As I’ve observed through following him on social media for nearly ten years, he mostly uses his platforms to advocate for human rights, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/2014/12/17/thank-you-based-god-10-reasons-why-you-should-see-lil-b-this-weekend/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">animal rights, and the environment\u003c/a> and promote peace. For instance, after A Boogie wit da Hoodie and his crew jumped Lil B at the \u003ca href=\"https://www.thefader.com/2017/10/23/lil-b-a-boogie-squashed-beef-after-rolling-loud\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Rolling Loud\u003c/a> festival last weekend, Lil B took to social media to preach a message of forgiveness instead of retaliating. Nothing about his social media presence — including those posts that got him banned — could be construed as inciting violence, which is the true definition of hate speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.propublica.org/article/facebook-hate-speech-censorship-internal-documents-algorithms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ProPublica report\u003c/a> detailing Facebook’s hate speech policy, hate speech is defined on the platform as an attack against a “protected category” of people, which includes race, gender, and religious affiliation. But the policy — which has been widely criticized as convoluted and inconsistently enforced — doesn’t protect “subsets” of people. One training document showed that according to Facebook’s content moderators, making posts about “white men” is out, but “black doctors” or “female employees” don’t get the same protections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In practice, this policy plays out counterintuitively: White supremacists have found ways to veil their hate speech — justifying posts of anti-black racism with crime statistics, for instance — to evade Facebook’s content monitors. Black Lives Matter activist \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@thedididelgado/mark-zuckerberg-hates-black-people-ae65426e3d2a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Didi Delgado\u003c/a> was banned from Facebook for a week for writing “White people are racist,” while \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/search/str/clay+higgins+kill+them+all/keywords_blended_featured_posts?esd=eyJlc2lkIjoiUzpfSTU4MTQzNjU0MTk1OTM2MjpWSzo5OTc4NzgwMTAzMTUyMTEiLCJwc2lkIjp7IjU4MTQzNjU0MTk1OTM2Mjo5OTc4NzgwMTAzMTUyMTEiOiJVenBmU1RVNE1UUXpOalUwTVRrMU9UTTJNanBXU3pvNU9UYzROemd3TVRBek1UVXlNVEU9In0sImNyY3QiOiJ0ZXh0IiwiY3NpZCI6IjNiMTk0M2ZiYTE5MGYwMzMxZjRjYjlkMjE0OGMzOGI1In0%3D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Congressman Clay Higgins\u003c/a>, a Republican from Louisiana, received no repercussions from the company for advocating for the deaths of radicalized Muslims, posting “Hunt them, identify them, and kill them.
