Why the article is so interesting Lil Wayne and David Ramsey In this article David Ramsey used the hook “I Will Forever Remain Faithful”. Which was interesting to me‚ I asked myself what faithful does Ramsey talking about. It was issue in 2008 of The Oxford American. “The story is ostensibly a personal essay about how Lil Wayne indirectly helped the author survive his first year teaching in New Orleans‚ but it also acts as music criticism and a reported piece.

I will compared and contrast two poems that deal with a similar topic of being caged. What I seen comparison in these poems are that we are giving a visual representation of people who are free and successful while there are people who are caged ready to be successful but are kept down either by their peers or the society they live in.
