Scotty ATL

Scotty ATL, also known as Scotty, is an Atlanta-based rapper, songwriter and record producer.

Early life

Scotty ATL attributes his interest in hip-hop to both of his parents, noting that his mother in particular would often play 2Pac around the house. It was as Scotty grew older, though, that he first took a serious interest in music, along with a friend, King J, who was older than Scotty and a rapper. When Scotty was in seventh grade King J enlisted in the Navy, and Scotty first started to make his own rap music; Scotty used the equipment to create a recording studio in his family’s basement, and started to record CD’s to sell at school.

Upon graduating from Redan High School in Atlanta, Scotty attended Savannah State University to play basketball, ultimately deciding to leave the team due to the team’s losing record. With his new-found free time, Scotty rededicated himself to music, and, as part of the group Monopoly Fleet that Scotty had formed in high school, he released an album titled 2339 Underground Boyz. Scotty and Monopoly Fleet signed a record deal following the release of 2339 Underground Boyz, and, while still in college, began traveling frequently back and forth from Atlanta to Savannah to focus on recording a new album, though the deal ultimately fell through. With the failed deal behind him, Scotty moved back to Atlanta and “got involved in the whole little street life,” focusing less on music.

Scotty (Star Trek)

Montgomery "Scotty" Scott is a fictional character in the science fiction franchise Star Trek. First portrayed by James Doohan in the original Star Trek series, Scotty also appears in the animated Star Trek series, seven Star Trek movies, the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Relics", and in numerous books, comics, and video games.

Simon Pegg has assumed the character and appeared in both the 2009 film Star Trek and its sequels, Star Trek Into Darkness and Star Trek Beyond.

Development and portrayals

Doohan was cast as the Enterprise engineer for the second Star Trek pilot, "Where No Man Has Gone Before" (1966) on the recommendation of that episode's director, James Goldstone, who had worked with him before. The character almost did not make it to the show after series creator Gene Roddenberry sent Doohan a letter informing him, "We don't think we need an engineer in the series". Only through the intervention of Doohan's agent did the character remain.

Doohan tried a variety of accents for the part and decided to use a Scottish accent on the basis that he thought Scottish people make the best engineers. Doohan himself chose Scotty's first name of Montgomery in honor of his maternal grandfather, James Montgomery. In a third-season production memo, Roddenberry said Doohan "is capable of handling anything we throw at him" and that the "dour Scot" works better when being protective of the ship's engines.

Mirrors (Natalia Kills song)

"Mirrors" is a song by the English recording artist Natalia Kills from her debut studio album, Perfectionist (2011). It was released by Cherrytree Records on 10 August 2010 as the lead single from the album. The track was written and produced by Akon, Giorgio Tuinfort and Martin "Cherry Cherry Boom Boom" Kierszenbaum, with additional writing from Kills. Described as a "disco pop" song, "Mirrors" contains references to various themes including sexual sadomasochism and arrogance.

Critical response to "Mirrors" was generally positive—most music critics denoted it as a standout from Perfectionist. The track received chart success in some countries of Europe, reaching the top ten of Austria, Germany, and Poland. On the US Hot Dance Club Songs, it peaked at number three, whereas in the United Kingdom, it failed to reach the top 100. The music video for "Mirrors" was directed by Guillaume Doubet, and follows Kills exploring the concepts of vanity, control and sex after being mysteriously dragged into a mirror. She further promoted the song with live performances on the 2011 Life Ball and on the German programme Schlag den Raab.

Track listing

Notes

"Is That All There Is?" was recorded in January 1969 and originally released as a single on Capitol Records the following September. It reached #11 on the Billboard Pop charts and #1 on the Adult Contemporary charts, and Peggy Lee won a Grammy Award for her performance. This unexpected success provided the impetus for an entire album of similar material. However, instead of recording a fully realized follow-up album, Capitol's November 1969 Is That All There Is? LP was hastily assembled from one new October recording date and a variety of sessions going back to June 1967, while Miss Lee toured on the strength of the hit. Six years would lapse before Mirrors was recorded, by which time Miss Lee had changed record labels. "Is That All There Is?" was thus not part of the original Mirrors LP; it was first added as a bonus track for the 1989 A&M CD reissue.
