Out rapper and singer/songwriter, Solomon celebrates the release of his latest single, 'The Way We Were' with a new artistic lyric video on VEVO. One year after premiering his single, 'Life Goes On...' with Out Magazine and spending countless weeks on the front of iTunes Dance page, the artist reinvents himself once again by jumping genres and crafting a heartfelt song. The single, a play on the 1973 Sydney Pollack film starring Barbra Streisand and Robert Redford of the same title, featuring interpolations from the film, was featured last week on Rdio's New Music Weekly page. While Solomon has always been an open book, 'The Way We Were' blows the door wide open to his personal life and upcoming debut album.

"Remixing the March," Goodman Theatre's year-long commemoration of the historic March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, continues this summer: youth participants in General Theater Studies (GTS) combine talents with senior citizens of the GeNarrations writing program to create a performance piece that views the historic event through a contemporary lens. As part of the annual GTS six-week summer program (through August 12), 80 teenage participants initiate discussions with GeNarrations participants about their recollections of the March, including Martin Luther King, Jr.'s 1963 "I Have a Dream" speech. From these interviews, the students blend their own stories into an original performance piece to be presented almost 50 years to the day.
