Rap was what people could relate to‚ because they knew they were not the only ones in trouble. Now‚ rap has changed for the worst. Modern mainstream rap is an embarrassment compared to the art form it used to be. Beginning

People that do not listen to rap music should realize that rap music carries out positive meanings for society to recognize. People can take rap as too loud or annoying‚ or people think‚ “Why do these rap artists have to cuss so much?” Yes‚ rap music will talk about sex‚ drugs‚ and degrading women. I believe that true rap music serves its purpose by sharing life stories and confronting harsh realities. There is a rap song called “Mockingbird” by Eminem‚ and it is about Eminem telling his daughter

The Killers I watched The Killers in San Diego‚ California. Event was the Wrex the hall 2012 on December 7th. It was my first rock concert I had been too. I have been to reggae‚ rap and a few house dj concerts but never a rock. Definitely a different crowd comes to these events.

Not so much dancing but a lot more singing along with Brandon Flowers with some jumping up and

The topic that I chose to examine and write about for my final paper is the difference between rap and hip hop on a more technical basis. The reason that I chose this topic in particular‚ is because as I matured from a boy and was allowed my own opinion and preference on what music that I listened to‚ rap and hip hop were the more predominant types of music that I invited. I listened to a fairly wide variety of music other than that‚ of course‚ but what stood out from the rest was the music with

On the night of Monday‚ October 16th‚ I had the opportunity to perform as part of the Wind Ensemble in the SHS Fall Concert. The ensemble consisted of woodwinds‚ brass‚ and percussion.

Opening for the wind ensemble‚ was a composition by Michael Daugherty called Alligator Alley. This intense and syncopated

Pardon the pun‚ but when it comes to degrading and sexist representations of women in music‚ does hip hop deserve its bad rap? Almost exclusively blamed for the negative images of women in music videos‚ hip hop is often perceived as unforgivingly misogynistic. In hip hop and rap‚ many of the lyrics and images portray women of all ethnicities as sexual objects and depict the exploitation of and violence against women. The image of dozens of semi-naked women dancing provocatively around one blinged-out
