...comparison to Havana is more than skin deep. Rumba and salsa are muy caliente here. While each ethnic or social group (ranging from the singer-storyteller caste known as griots to the Fulani and Tuareg tribes) has its own musical tradition, modern Malian music throbs with the influence of Cuba. The result? A heady m?lange that spans infectious Afro-pop, Latin grooves, hip-hop and a mosaic of traditional genres...
...blonds are fighting over who gets Screwed first. Now, don't be vulgar. This is a dispute between unavoidable hotel heiress PARIS HILTON, left (sister of less famous Nicky), and squeaky-clean singer-actress HAYLIE DUFF (sister of more famous Hilary).

Yet each ethnic or social group (ranging from the singer-storyteller caste...
...delay? You get the feeling that the Scissor Sisters' record company, Universal, was a little nervous about how audiences Stateside might react to these five flamboyant New Yorkers. Never mind that the band's name was inspired by a lesbian sexual position or that lead singer Jake Shears used to perform in drag shows going by a name in excruciatingly bad taste. The Scissor Sisters are the first band in the history of the world to cite Supertramp as a profound artistic influence. They're pushing the bounds of tolerance...
