Download !!EXCLUSIVE!! Lil Wayne Song After Disaster

Composer Dimitri Tiomkin scored the film and composed the theme song "The High and the Mighty"; the song was also called "The Whistling Song" because John Wayne whistled the tune during production.[34] Tiomkin's music topped hit parade charts and remained there for weeks, increasing the film's profile.[35] A 1955 national survey of disc jockeys labeled the song as the "most whistleable tune".[35] Hollywood producers learned that a publicized title song could have value in attracting audiences to movie theaters.[36] Therefore, the song's "haunting strains" were played on the radio and on recordings in the years after the film's release.[34] It was nominated for the Best Song at the 27th Academy Awards in 1955, but lost to "Three Coins in the Fountain" from the film of the same name.[35]

Coverage of the 1989 Hillsborough disaster by the British tabloid The Sun led to the newspaper's decline in Liverpool and the broader Merseyside region, with organised boycotts against it. The disaster occurred at a football match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest. Ninety-seven Liverpool supporters were crushed to death, and several hundred others were injured, due to negligence by the South Yorkshire Police. On 19 April 1989, four days after the incident, The Sun published a front-page story with the headline "The Truth" containing a number of falsehoods alleging that Liverpool supporters were responsible for the accident.

Peter Hooton, the lead singer of Liverpudlian band The Farm, has been a campaign spokesperson.[18] A 2011 anti-The Sun concert organised by the Hillsborough Justice Campaign featured artists including Mick Jones, James Dean Bradfield and The Farm; it developed into a national tour. Shortly afterwards, Billy Bragg released the song "Scousers Never Buy The Sun".[18]

In 2017, journalists from The Sun were banned from Liverpool's Anfield stadium and Melwood training ground over its Hillsborough coverage. They were denied access from interviewing players or managers. The decision was undertaken after consulting families of those who died in the disaster, and the Total Eclipse of the Sun campaign.[17][21] The ban extended a practice by the club of refusing The Sun exclusive interviews, but did not prevent them from accessing publicly accessible material or using external sources to write content.[21]

Relatedly, the newspaper was banned by Everton F.C. in April 2017 after publishing a column by MacKenzie, the day before the 28th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster, that included a passage about footballer Ross Barkley that insulted his intelligence and compared him to a drug dealer and a prisoner. A picture of Barkley alongside a gorilla had the caption "Could Everton's Ross Barkley represent the missing link between man and beast?"[22] Access to the club grounds and facilities for Sun reporters were blocked. Anderson described the article as "disgrace" and a "slur" on the city.[23] He reported the article to the Independent Press Standards Organisation and Merseyside Police investigated whether it constituted a racial hate crime.[22] MacKenzie was suspended as a contributor to the paper on the day of publication.[24]

A boycott of The Sun began the day after its headline of "The Truth", with sales figures in Merseyside decreasing 40% overnight, according to Horrie.[1] He estimated in 2014 that Liverpool's boycott of The Sun had cost its owners 15 million per month since the disaster, in 1989 prices. This is due to a combination of sales and advertisement revenue decreasing.[11] The Financial Times reported in 2019 that Merseyside sales were estimated to have dropped from 55,000 per day to 12,000 per day, an 80% decrease.[29]

A 2021 study in the American Political Science Review found that the Merseyside boycott of The Sun had led to reduced Euroscepticism than in comparable areas which were not boycotting The Sun. In the aftermath of the disaster, many people switched from The Sun to the pro-European Union Daily Mirror.[30][29]

New Orleans is home to many rappers, including Lil Wayne and Juvenile. So, when Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast five years ago this weekend, it only felt natural for hip-hop to step up and capture the debacle on wax. It's been five years since the disaster and this Katrina-inspired playlist reminds us that we're still singing the same ol' song.

Lil Wayne had already wrapped up recording on Tha Carter II before Katrina arrived, so updating his album with a song about the disaster was out of the question. But Weezy seized his first collaboration opportunity to give the public a piece of his mind. "The hurricane came and took my Louisiana home/ And all I got in return was a darn country song," he raps on "Hollywood Divorce."

As throngs of displaced NOLA residents fled to the Bayou City, we were constantly reminded of the disaster's close proximity to home. Houston's own Legendary K.O. (Damien "D.R." Randle and Micah "Big Mon" Nickerson) were actually the first artists to dedicate a full song to the disaster. Inspired by Kanye's famous telethon words and backed by that face-scraping "Gold Digger" bassline, "George Bush Don't Like Black People" quickly became an Internet sensation. 006ab0faaa
