Empire can hang with the best of them in the late-night soap game.
Read our latest review!
The late-night soap game is getting crowded.
I definitely didnt expect it to come in the form ofEmpire.
Honestly, my fears rested on a larger audience embracing hip-hop culture.
The music, especially in this episode, avoids being intrusive or artificial and fits snuggly into the narrative.
Its ridiculous and ridiculously fun, like Kanye West screaming to hurry up with his damn croissant!
If your eyes do manage to wander, shell throw a shoe at you.

Andre already seems to be inMacbethwaters.
Going mad, being bossed around by his power hungry wife.
These two may be at each others throats at some point, but not yet.
The show did a better job at slowing things down all around.
Its the first moment where Terrance Howard has really grabbed me.
He gets me again during the before-mentioned TV interview.
Does it add another layer to this already deliciously decadent cake?
Sure, but at this point, Im biting.
