Devil Ridin' Shotgun - Wild Turkey

Advantages: Track after track of Bun B and Pimp C rippin it over sick beats
Disadvantages: Three bad songs.

...Underground Kingz is probably better known to you as UGK. Well... maybe not. UGK is probably best known for their guest appearance on Jay-Z's smash hit "Big Pimpin" back in the late 90s. Bun B did appear in "Big D's Song of the Year for 2006": Chamillionaire's "Picture Perfect", and Pimp C got released from incarceration and as far as I know, is still on parole (remember, I'm several months behind on this rap shit). Well anyways, UGK is the duo of Bun B and Pimp C, and the name "Underground Kingz" is certainly fitting, as the duo have been a mainstay of the southern underground hip-hop scene for several years out of Port Arthur, Texas. They developed a huge underground following, and prior to the release of Ridin Dirty, garnered minimal success on a mainstream level with "Super Tight" and Too Hard to Swallow. Their third album, Ridin... Read review

Advantages: a place to rediscover forgotten cultures; beautiful landscape
Disadvantages: huge distances to cover

...You don't need to fly all the way to Central Asia, South America or Central Africa to discover untouched territory. Southeast Turkey bears a treasure of undiscovered culture and nature - little known even by most Turks, let alone western tourists. This is the land of the ancient Mesopotamia, the world's first real civilisation (that is if you don't believe in Atlantis), from 12 thousand years ago. Embedded between mountain ranges and the rivers of Euphrates and Tigris, this region has been the source of legends for generations. Let yourself be mystified. This part of Southeast Anatolia is part of the Kurdish territory, and has been barred from visits for decades due to severe security threats. But since late 1999, this part of Kurdistan is open to visitors again, and you may only have a few years to discover this region before... Read review

Advantages: Al Pacino
Disadvantages: Keanu Reeves

...I?ve always believed that if something seems too good to be true, then unfortunately it most likely probably is - Devil?s Advocate is a film that proves this only too well..... Devil?s Advocate Keanu Reeves plays the part of Kevin Lomax, a very successful defence attorney who has never lost a case in his entire career. The film starts with Kevin defending a schoolteacher who has been accused by one of his pupils of molesting her. During the trial, Kevin comes to believe his client is guilty, (which he clearly is) however this doesn?t stop him from destroying the girl's credibility and getting Mr Getty off. After the trial Kevin and his wife, Mary Ann , played by Charlize Theron, go out on the town to celebrate, yet another win. Whilst enjoying their celebrations, Kevin is approached by a representative of the New York... Read review
