Jay-Z did appear to promise far in advance that his “Reasonable Doubt” 30th anniversary show would, in fact, be a celebration of the debut album that he dropped back in June 1996. That didn’t stop him from pulling out all the stops — well, most of them, at least — during the first of his […]

There is a more interesting story lurking within Jan-Eric Mack’s “A Happy Family” than the one actually being told.

Dosa Divas, on the other hand, manages to capture much of that same feeling in a package that spans less tha
