Its Sunday edition is the ''Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung'' (; ''FAS''). The paper runs its own network of correspondents. Its editorial policy is not determined by a single editor, but cooperatively by four editors. History The first edition of the ''FAZ'' appeared on 1 November 1949; its founding editors were Hans Baumgarten, Erich Dombrowski, Karl Korn, Paul Sethe and Erich Welter. Welter acted as editor until 1980. Some editors had worked for the moderate '' Frankfurter Zeitung'', which had been banned in 1943.

Traditionally, many of the headlines in the ''FAZ'' were styled in bl ...

Origins Cloud rap originated in Atlanta, Houston, and Memphis during the late 2000's. The term "cloud rap" is popularly used in reference to lo-fi, hazy rap.
