Lin-Manuel Miranda

Jay Z continues to stay busy. Fresh off his Songwriters Hall Of Fame honor, Jay Z celebrates another achievement, becoming one of the producers for the film adaptation of In the Heights. In the Heights was Lin-Manuel Miranda’s first musical before he became a household name for Hamilton. The musical premiered on Broadway in 2008 and won four […]

BROOOOOOOOOO! I have been waiting on the edge of my seat for the release of Lin Manuel-Miranda’s “The Hamilton Mixtape.” I feel as though this project will bridge the gap between Broadway and Hip-Hop. Artists like Nas, Queen Latifah, Ja Rule & Usher are all apart of this genius creation. I found out that on […]

I’m super excited for “The Hamilton Mixtape” that’s being released on Friday. I think this will bridge the gap between broadway and hip-hop. Our fav artists are getting together to put their spin on some of the tunes from the hit musical created by Lin Manuel-Miranda. Nas, Chance The Rapper, Sia, Miguel, Kelly Clarkson & […]

“Hamilton” is a musical that has changed the way people view theater. Show tunes don’t always have to be corny and classical. Lin-Manuel Miranda has re-invented stage plays as we know them. “Hamilton” merges American History with Hip-Hop music and it just so happens to mesh beautifully. We get a behind the scenes look at […]

Often times, blacks and latinos don’t get represented well on the stage. Whenever directors/companies produce classic shows, it’s a predominantly white cast. I think that’s one of the reasons why our people shy away from theater. I applaud TUTS (Theatre Under The Stars) for going against the grain and adding shows to its 2016-2017 season […]

The poll, conducted by NBC News, The Wall Street Journal, and Marist, showed that 88 percent of the 848 Black voters from Ohio who […]

Hamilton is taking the Broadway world by storm. I applaud Lin Manuel-Miranda for changing the way the urban community views live theater. This man infused hip/hop into musicals, which in turn has made it more appealing to an entire new demographic. I will do whatever it takes to go and see this play when it […]

The two took to Twitter on Monday (July 4) to share a clip of their new song dedicated to Orlando, "Love Make the World Go Round."

Since opening last summer the musical Hamilton has become a pop culture phenomenon thanks to its effortless combination of hip hop and history; telling the story of Alexander Hamilton like no one had ever done before. The brain child of Lin-Manuel Miranda, Hamilton has enjoyed a tremendous amount of success, and is expected to sweep at the upcoming […]

Fortune released its annual World's 50 Greatest Leaders list and some of our favorite people made the cut, including Stephen Curry, Pope Francis, and even Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda.

Curie High School’s Musicality Vocal Ensemble has some very gifted students. I really believe that they have the ability to take a show on the road. I’m glad that they’ve been covering tunes from the Grammy Award Winning Musical “Hamilton,” because I love seeing other people’s renditions of some of my favorite songs. Musicality is […]

It makes me feel like I actually know what I’m talking about when I beg people to jam stuff like “Hamilton” and then it ends up winning the Best Musical Theatre Album at the 2016 Grammy awards. For those who don’t even like broadway shows, this might be one that could ease you into the performing arts. […]
