Grimes (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Grimes/133232266718746) is the recording moniker of Claire Boucher, an experimental pop musician from Montreal. She released two albums in 2010, 'Geidi Primes' and 'Halifaxa,' and followed that last year with 'Darkbloom,' a split with d'Eon which lent the standout Grimes track, "Vanessa." Now, after having recently announced her signing with 4AD (Pixies, The National, St. Vincent), she'll release her first album for the label, 'Visions,' which is due out on February 21. You can currently listen to a full legal stream of the entire album on NPR (http://www.npr.org/2012/02/06/146463100/first-listen-grimes-visions).

Culture Shock: A Hip Hop Club Meeting

Who: Hip Hop Club + Major Events
What: Suggestions for Hip Hop performances at Culture Shock
Where: G Street, Olde Community Lounge
When: Wednesday November 9 - 10pm


This past week, the first meeting for Culture Shock took place with the Major Events Committee. The MECs expressed their interest in passing by all of the clubs to see just who the people want for CS. Being on the committee as well as president of HHC, I figured their first stop should be us. So, for this particular meeting, we're gonna talk artists... why we can't get certain people (like Lil' B).... and list down potential contenders for CS.

SO FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO ALWAYS COMPLAIN ABOUT THE LINE-UP, YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY HERE TO SPEAK YOUR MIND AND SUGGEST SOMEONE THAT YOU WOULD ACTUALLY LIKE TO COME HERE FOR CULTURE SHOCK (ESPECIALLY to those people in charge).

P.S. Keep in mind that these aren't guarantees, but contenders that will be HEAVILY considered because YOU GUYS picked them out.
