2024 Corvette E-Ray: The Quickest ’Vette Ever
  + stars: | 2023-11-23 | by ( Dan Neil | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
ZOOM SERVICE The 2024 Corvette E-Ray is the company’s first hybrid model and the first with all-wheel-drive, courtesy of permanent-magnet motor (160 hp/125 lb ft) between the front wheels, paired with a mid-mounted 6.2-liter, 495-hp V8 and eight-speed transmission. Photo: ChevroletON A RECENT TRIP to Los Angeles, I spent a day being awesome in the new, unseemly civilized Corvette E-Ray, Chevrolet’s first hybrid-powered Corvette and the first with winter-worthy all-wheel drive. For Canadians, Christmas came early this year. The E-Ray has the distinction of being not only the most vigorously accelerating ’Vette in history; it is also, weirdly, the most refined, versatile, usable and commodious. Our test car—in the 3LZ trim package ($123,705, as tested)—was a leather-wrapped luxury launch, buoyed on the adaptive suspension and supple, multi-mode magnetic dampers.

Kate Beckinsale and rapper Big Boss Vette arrive for DiCaprio's birthday. Miha Azne/Frank Vasquez/BACKGRIDCNN —Kate Beckinsale wore a bejeweled mini dress over the weekend to celebrate Leonardo DiCaprio’s 49th birthday in Los Angeles, and a photograph of the black frock, which featured a colossal blue-gemstone-like accessory belted around her waist, has since made its rounds across the Internet. Though the look seems to be a delightful reference to a famous DiCaprio film, one question has persisted: Which one? Is the gem a blue diamond or blue sapphire? Beckinsale starred alongside DiCaprio in “The Aviator“ as actress Ava Gardner and aerospace engineer Howard Hughes.

The Future of Rap Is Female
  + stars: | 2023-08-09 | by ( Niela Orr | Photographs Adrienne Raquel | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +22 min
The Future of Rap Is Female As their male counterparts turn depressive and paranoid, it’s the women who are having all the fun. In the mid-’80s, the dynamics shifted slightly, when UTFO released “Roxanne, Roxanne,” a comical torch song dissing a woman who rejected the men’s advances. Like good sex, raunchy rap is only fun if all parties are completely enthusiastic, and this music provides necessary female perspectives to match what the men make. In Miami one weekend in late July, Rolling Loud, one of the biggest annual hip-hop festivals, made itself into a microcosm of the rap world. There’s a relentless gender pessimism in the air, too — on the street, on dating apps, in the Supreme Court and, of course, in rap music.

The Corvette E-Ray will use a 12-volt lithium-ion battery and a 160-horsepower electric motor to drive the front wheels. A fully electric Corvette will come, but GM executives are not saying when.
