Polymath Actor, Recording Artist, and Filmmaker Amir Royale Releases His ‘Stories of the Lost, Rich & Tormented’ EP
From Amir Royale Sophomore year, NYU Tisch’s Clive Davis Institute, 2017. I created the concept of Stories of the Lost, Rich & Tormented as a "Writing the Hit Song: Deep Cutz" homework assignment. Over the course of 14 weeks, I crafted and reworked about 12 or so ideas. Suddenly, my songwriting professor at the time (Eren Cannata of Cove City Sound Studios, Facethouse Records & Warner Chapel Music), directed us to use all the content we created thus far to formulate an EP. This project would then become one we’d pitch and present to potential A&R scouts. It was our final project. I curated 5 of my best records across the class to showcase a conceptual narrative and description of greed, lust, and youth insecurity within American culture. It is the final entry within my four-EP-long music chronicle (dating back to my 2015 EP, This Is for You.). To let this project go free finally—feels like a blessing. Thank you.

Top 10 Beer Brands in the World
The change serves a necessary purpose in the craft beer industry. Craft breweries must adapt in accordance with the changing intended demographic. The target audience, the Millennial generation, is intrigued by how, why, and when their beer is made. The number of new craft breweries has increased, and well-established businesses have created a wide range of novel products. It makes sense that there is a fierce rivalry.

Why Chicago is the best music hub in America
Chicago is a diamond in the rough. Settled in the heart of the midwest, Illinois is not as flashy as New York or as dreamy as California. As such, it is often overlooked as a prime destination for the big dreamers–the actors, the writers, the musicians. But nobody offers such a diverse, growing community like Chicago.

New Orleans
New Orleans had been destroyed by a dozen different occurrences. But it was more throbbing and vibrant than every other muscle in America. Perhaps that's because it had been killed so much that it was so sturdy. I'd arrived on the edge of Mardi Gras a couple months after abandoning California. I was as vulnerable as a robin nest on the lip of a great pond. Although there was a scorch in me that was too hot for most quiet and civilized areas. But it ignited with this place like a July fire show. I banged on Frenchmen Street with my typewriter. It afforded me decorated bed and breakfast houses and well bourbon from Checkpoint Charlie's. A hole-in-the-wall bar where large rats scurried by your ankles. But more valuably, they hugged me and at best cried when I read to them. I may not have been good for much at regular employment, but my work here would burn forever like Orion. And I wasn't afraid of where I'd end up afterward.
