The Lox Money, Power and Respect Bad Boy Records

The Lox is the latest group to come out with an album under Sean “Puffy” Combs (Puff Daddy) management. This group is also the first true rap-oriented group with a Puff Daddy label. Some of the other groups Puff Daddy deals with are Mase, 112, and Usher. These groups all have an R & B flavour to their music.

The Lox, however, are quite different from them as mostoftheir songs are hard hitting with beats that would blow any speaker with the bass turned all the way up.

The first single released is “If You Think I’m Jiggy” and is not bad for a first song. Some of the other good songs are “Let’s Start Rap Over” and “Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop.” Some big-name artists make appearances on the album like Puff Daddy, L’il Kim and Kelly Price.

Over all, the album is not that bad, but if you are a big lover of Mase and Usher, then this probably is not for you as the Lox is more hard core than these two guys. But ifyou like rap, then this is definitely for you. | give it a 3.5/5 rating.

The university's Thea- tre Society has become one of the largest and active organi- zations. Last year at this time they successfully presented Canadian playwright Sharon Pollock’s “Blood Relations” and in November an evening of student directed one-act plays was staged on campus. One of those plays was pre- sented as part of the first in- ter-university theatre festival held at St. Thomas university in Fredericton, and it proved to be among the most popular of the 14 productions from across the Atlantic region.
