Frank (2003) y especialmente
Back to Black (2006) la ratificaron como una figura clave en la música de este siglo.
La música de Amy Winehouse unía géneros como jazz, rhythm and blues, el soul y el rock. Pero hay un estilo musical que era muy querido por Amy, aunque no mucha gente la recuerda por él: el rap.
Esto lo reveló el documental
Amy, en el que se puede ver a Amy y a su amiga Juliette Ashby hablando sobre su grupo de rap, llamado Sweet ‘n’ Sour. Impulsadas por Alan Glass, productor y padrastro de Juliette, el grupo alcanzó a grabar algunas canciones:
people are not reporting on that. there are victories across the country that people aren t talking about. we have won some of the high profile races and i believe we ll win more. we talk about the primaries and how they were a win for the establishment. maybe in the short term. what do you think that is going to have on the chance of taking the white house for 2016? well, i want to go back to what amy said. she s exactly right, if it weren t for the tea party, republicans wouldn t have been brought back to life in 2010. everybody forgets that. the tea party, like amy said, got us back on message, got us back to the party of principles known for reduced spending, less taxation. those are the tenants. because of the tea party and grass roots efforts started by people like amy, republicans were able to take on what? over 50 seats in congress.
date. we are not winning. the problem is, the problem is, the republicans never fight for anything. these people that have been in office for 30, 40 years, they have been there too long. you cannot lay all this debt at the feet of the democrats. republicans have been part of this. i agree with that. when they have been there that long, the policy is not working. we need fresh blood. change things up. people want change. they are tired of this. the polls show that there s an anti-incumbency mentality across the country. they are tired of it. there stands it divide. i m no longer with tea party express. i just want to correct the record. all right. amy and crystal thank you both so much for being here. thanks. here is a question. how much do we really pay for air fare? seasoned what are we paying for? after you add up all t the
government. my question to you, crystal first, then amy. do you agree there s not that big of a divide? no. i think look, speaker boehner is doing what he should do as leader of the house. he s trying to bring together the coalition, which is a problem. there s a divide where the tea party needs real work is once you are elected, the work begins with consensus building. we, as republicans can t have everything we want. what looked bad is when senator ted cruz, who was brought into congress through the tea party. we have good folks like rand paul as well, but when ted cruz stood on principle, take away obamacare, he got nothing out of it. they need to get more focused. push leadership to go for better policy, but government is about compromise. i think that s where the tea party falls short.
conservatism. i think, as amy pointed out, as they navigate the next phase, that should be part of it. they are not going away. at the end of the day, whether you are a republican or conservative, we are picking the right candidates we feel can represent us in the races. i wonder if the republican party establishment would call allen west a one and done because when he came in, then a challenger came up and he lost. let s listen to what john boehner had to say. is there s not that big of a difference between the tea party and your average conservative republican. you know? we think taxes are too high and the government is too big. i wouldn t continue to sing that same song. i wonder if that was the same thing we are hearing from speaker boehner during the negotiations over the budget when we had to shut down the
