The carrier has plenty of well-established rivals. Singapore Airlines, which flies to 94 destinations--among them the recently launched longest nonstop flight ever, from New York City to Singapore--has for years dominated customer-service rankings.

Rap battles, are indeed one of rap’s longest-standing traditions and I have been in more than a few. Moreover, hip-hop battles are derived from a long tradition of black word games that includes “the Dozens.” What 50 has gotten himself into, however, is not really an authentic version of this tradition...
