    Motown Influences

    Although many events and people have influenced American music throughout the years, Motown has been the most influential. Motown is the most significant era in popular music because it completely broke racial barriers and created a style of catchy music that lives on today. Before Motown, music was old, tired, and segregated. Jazz had been popular for so many years, it was time for something new and that’s exactly why Berry Gordy began the pop culture sensation that we know as Motown.…

    Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

    Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down, and I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there, I’ll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-air. These are the opening lines to the intro song of the television comedy “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”, that me and every 90’s kids with a TV has had memorized since the day we first heard it. Even as you read that first sentence, you can’t help but to rap the words, and hum the tune as you envision a young Will Smith spinning on his royal chair with the graffiti background. The effect of the lyrics and the music video to this intro song goes way beyond pure entertainment value. The music video and lyrics spread happiness, smiles, and even helped to usher in a new generation of kids with the carefree fresh prince mindset.…

    Those Winter Sundays and My Papa’s Waltz

    The two poems, “Those Winter Sundays” by Robert Hayden and “My Papa’s Waltz” by Theodore Roethke, seem to have a very similar theme. Both of them tell a story, from an inside point of view, of a child who is looking back on the lives of their father’s by recalling and telling of certain events that occurred in their past. In “Those Winter Sundays” the narrator, obviously a female, “and slowly I would rise and dress” (line 8), looks back on how her father sacrificed everything for the family and never seemed to be fully appreciated “….No one ever thanked him” (5). In “My Papa’s Waltz” the narrator is a boy “Could make a small boy dizzy” (line 2), looking back at a time where he played joyfully with his father.…

    Harlem Shake

    I am going to describe what I saw when I watched the "Peanuts Harlem Shake" video. The Harlem shake is a dance where one person dances alone for fifteen seconds, then a roomfull of people joins in doing crazy gyrating manically dance movements. Sometimes in costumes with random objects sometimes not. The reason I choose this one is because it reminds me of when I was a child and used to watch the Peanuts.…

    Dancing Through The Night And All That Jazz

    From the very beginning of the 1800’s, musicals and operas have always been an interesting and popular source of entertainment. With the introduction to film and the use a vitaphone in the early 1900’s, the production of musical films were created. A musical film had the actors singing songs that are related in with the storyline. In the years of silent films, musical films were unable to be produce because the audience would be unable to hear the actor’s voices. The vitaphone had the ability to record the actor’s voices and then play them back during the silent film. This device then led to the ability for actors to sing and dance because the songs would already be prerecorded. With musical films…

    Jazz was born in New Orleans through the rich diversity of the people that populated the state. New Orleans had a spectrum of races like mention in lecture “White men and women, and of all hues of brown, and of all Classes of faces, from round Yankees to grisly and lean Spaniards, black Negroes and negresses, curly and straight-haired, Quadroons of all shades…) The spectrum of races allowed for the blending of cultures which lead to the creation new music.

    Black Eyed Peas

    The following critical interpretation of popular culture is based on the song called “Where is the Love” by the band Black Eyed Peas which was written in 2003. An interpretation of the message that the author is trying to convey in the song is the idea that there is massive discrimination and hatred amongst people in the United States. Furthermore, the song suggests that US citizens are ignorant of the world around them and that love, which can be viewed as human kindness and civility in the context of this song, is lost amongst people. To continue, the song argues that the government, along with popular media, is manipulating the populous into thinking that the world we live in is a safe place; all the while hiding what the US government is doing around the world. For example the bombings of Al Shifa Pharmaceutical Plant in Sudan, the aspirin factory, bombed in 1998 by the Clinton Administration. The song discusses issues such as terrorism, U.S government hypocrisy, xenophobia, warmongering, sexual/religious intolerance and the inherent greed of the capitalist ideal. Moreover, the song asks a fundamental question as the title suggests “Where is the Love?” The author proceeds to make his argument by starting the song with analysis of how people lost their morals and respect for each other which leads to xenophobia and intolerance in general. Moving on, in the second half of the song the author makes the argument that any form of racism, xenophobia, is the cause for terrorism, especially the events of September 11 2001. The third half of the song, the author writes about the wrongdoing of modernization in the world and how capitalism spreads animosity and selfishness rather than values of humanity to the public. Therefore, the author’s presumption that the world has lost love towards humanity and respect for others including religion is based on the arguments that firstly, that disrespect leads to discrimination, secondly, discrimination leads to…

    Harlem by Langston Hughes

    In the poem "Harlem" by Langston Hughes, he proclaims his thoughts for rights of equality during the Civil Rights Movement. He expresses his frustration for racism that he has had to overcome throughout his life. In the poem, Hughes states "Maybe it just sags like a heavy load." This line is his opinion of how, during the Civil Rights Movement, racism and equality are put to the base of the agenda list but at the peak of every mind. The lines give the image of sagging breasts due to lack of support. The idea thus signifies that the dream begins to grow on one, like a part of one's body. But due to inadequate support.The dream for African Americans were still being deferred. Hughes is providing a series of questions that every African American wants a response to.…

    Why I Love Hiphop

    Hip-hop and rap music has become a more and more popular genre of music. It has been my most favorite genre of music for many years. With such popular artists having such control and influence over America’s youth, it is easy to understand why so many people have problems with hip-hop and rap music. It is often said that rap and hip-hop music is misogynistic and praises violence. Also, it is argued that this genre of music deepens generalizations and stereotypes about the African-American community. Just how Tom Bissell describes his love for videogames in the essay titled Extra Lives: Why Video Games Matter, as “an extra life” I too have a passion for hip-hop music and use it as an outlet from the real word (Bissell, 352). My own view is that hip-hop and rap music is beneficial to America’s youth because it breaks down cultural divides by using music as a way to unify all cultures.…

    Hip Hop And Jazz

    Two genres in dance that I chose where hip hop and jazz. One example for hip hop is Tiffany and George performing “Out of my mind”. An also another example of jazz is Charlie and Tommy performing to Circus. There are a lot of things that are great about the hip hop dance they had, facials, there moves were very sharp and there costumes matched the music. This is important to the genre because it has its own rhythm and it’s different than other dances. The jazz dance is very significant because the routine had a lot of technique and facials, there moves were also sharp as well. This is important to the genre because you have to know a little bit of hip hop and contemporary and you also have to have a lot of facials. Genre is significant to dance…
