Murs is the hardest-working rapper alive. If he’s not running circles around America as part of Paid Dues, the annual hip-hop festival that he created and organized, he’s doing backflips across a stage in Budapest, or shaking hands with fans in Japan before catching a bullet train to a packed in-store performance.

When he’s not on the road, he’s in the studio, feverishly adding album after album to a cavernous discography which boasts projects released by major-label behemoths like Warner Bros. clear across the industry spectrum to indie powerhouses like Rhymesayers and Def Jux, a testament to the respect this man commands from the underground and commercial world alike. And all from a guy who only got a manager three years ago. Read the rest of this entry »

Shanrock’s Triviology & Stumptown Stories
Tuesday, November 8
5:30 p.m. Trivia | 7 p.m. Stumptown Stories
FREE | 21+
@ Rialto’s Jack London Bar, 401 SW Alder Street

Tonight, catch Shanrock’s Trivia(trivia so hard it will make your brain explode!) @ 5:30 followed by Stumptown Stories Tuesday night series; “Tom Burns: The Most Arrested Man in Portland” presented by Peter Sleeth in conjunction with The Oregon Encyclopedia Project.

Tom Burns trooped into Portland in 1905 with a chip on his shoulder and a pile-driving desire to right social wrongs. Whether you called him a socialist, anarchist, or Roosevelt Democrat, Burns believed he had one mission in life: To ensure that everyone had enough before anyone had too much.

Drawing on extensive newspaper and archival research, as well as personal memory and interviews, Sleeth demonstrates connections between Burns’s childhood in the Dickensian tenements of Liverpool, England, and his intellectual integrity and free speech fights and illustrates how Burns evolved from street-fighting activist into the type of middle-class radical that helped shape the city’s politics and mores from 1905 to 1957.
