‘Her Emmy-nominated performance is radiantly funny’ TV | Insecure The return of the irresistible Issa Rae COMEDY In the course of season 3 of this terrific HBO series, Issa Dee (Emmy-nominated Rae) happens to find her high school rap journal in a cardboard box full of things to be thrown out. She reads a few lyrics aloud (“And I got big dreams/ I got big schemes/ I’m never medi- oh-cre/ ’Bout to take oh-ver/ The world . . .”) then tells herself, “Oh, Issa, you were simple then.” Her tone is matter-of-fact, a little sad, mostly accepting—it’s always tough to say how many major and minor chords Rae is combining in her irresistible performance, which is also radiantly funny. She plays a young African-American woman whose life is in…

Lovato’s single “Sober,” released in June, is a confessional take on her substance abuse. The song speaks bluntly of an addict’s failure to live up to expectations.

And I’m sorry for the fans I lost who watched me fall again / I wanna be a role model, but I’m only human / . . . I’m sorry that I’m here again / I promise I’ll get help / It wasn’t my intention / I’m sorry to myself…
