    The song “Kevin by Macklemore, Ryan Lewis, and Leon Bridges, was in my opinion incredibly gloomy. First finding out that Kevin and Macklemore where drug addict was the first shocker. The song, per se did not declare Macklemore as an addict, but the context in the song told otherwise. Also it was sad finding out that Kevin died from overdose most likely, while Macklemore is still alive to see a friend die and from the song this was not the first or last death of a friend he would see. Now with friends that were with him dying from most likely drug abuse, Macklemore created for those who have a drug addiction so one could suffer the same pain he is feeling.…

    "That is so gay.” “You are such a faggot.” These are two phrases we hear fairly often in our everyday lives and do not really question what they are actually saying. Unless you have been living under a rock for the last few decades, you know the words gay and faggot are derogatory terms for people who are homosexual.

In Macklemore’s song "Same Love” and his music video he addresses society's false preconceived notions on homosexuality, the use of hateful slurs in the music industry, and how we as a society need to stop ignoring the sexual equality movement and…

    The breakfast club has one of the most unique and memorable soundtracks of all time. Something that made the movie gave it such a memorable track and the movies “theme song”, "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by the band Simple minds.

    There are wires growing out of everyone’s ears. That is, to listen to music. Music is an infinite source, whether that source is for lifting up spirits, expressing underlying pain and anger, or just merely a distraction. Music from well-developed Broadway musicals to a series of beats at a party, it is something we all have done: listen to music. Some even say that music defines us but it that really true? Is our music the soundtrack of who we each are? Do what we listen to support our core values in life? To answer this I sought out the one song I listened to most, “This Kiss” by Alex Days and Carrie Hope Fletcher, and interpreted its lyrics to see if it matched with my core values of commitment, happiness, and love.…
