A few months ago I wrote about the remarkable story of John Forté, the Grammy-nominated musician freed from prison two years ago by way of a last-minute pardon from a very unlikely source: George W. Bush.
Today, Forté approaches life with a mixture of wonder and urgency that perhaps only someone who’s making up for lost time could muster. Since the end of 2008 the former Fugees-affiliated singer/rapper/producer/songwriter has recorded more than 60 songs, performed over 40 concerts, started work on a memoir and embarked on a lucrative public speaking career. That’s not enough to earn a spot on our annual Hip-Hop Cash Kings list (at least not yet), but the new gigs have given Forté plenty of flexibility.

 Why Russians Don't SmileIt is a primitive stereotype and myth that Russians are doomed to be gloomy and morose. The problem has little to do with Dostoevsky, the cold climate or lack of sunlight and much more to do with the rampant corruption, lawlessness, weak civil society and low level of freedom in the country. |
