Houston kicked off the Southern hip-hop trends in the 1980's with pioneers such as the Geto Boys and UGK. Both groups we're overtly conscious discussing not only poverty, but also the implications of drug dealing and violence (Smith, 2004; Sanneh 2005). The early 1990's brought in Houston's signature chopped and screwed sound when DJ Screw made his name is a "psychedelic remixer" (Sanneh, 2005.) But the Houston sound took a while to expand to the rest of the US because like the other epicenters the sound of the artist on the independent labels stayed local (Speyer,

Rap started in the mid-1970s in the South Bronx area of New York City. The birth of rap is, in many ways, like the birth of rock and roll. Both originated in the African American community and both were first recorded by small, independent record labels and marketed towards, mostly to a black audience. And in both cases, the new style soon attracted white musicians that began performing it. For rock and roll it was a white American from Mississippi, Elvis Presley. For rap it was a young white group from New York, the Beastie Boys. Their release “(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)” (1986) was one of the first two rap records to reach the Billboard top-ten. Another early rap song to reach the top ten, “Walk This Way” (1986), was a collaboration of Run-DMC and Aerosmith. Soon after 1986, the use of samples was influenced in the music of both black and white performers, changing past thoughts of what make up a “valid” song.
The Audience’s response is more significant than the author’s intent, even though the author already has a meaning it's the audience’s response That piece that gives it a purpose .
With reference to three poems studied so far discuss how Larkin presents the theme of illusion and reality.
She analyzes the use and meaning of sampling. Rap music uses sampling not to steal and mask a previously used beat or sound or lyric but instead to pay homage to its origins and the traditions that came before the artist using the sample. She states, “Rap music has dramatically changed the intended use of sampling technology, it has remained critically linked to black poetic traditions and the oral forms that underwrite them” (93). This kind of relationship between rap and technology is another way to acknowledge black history and attempts to educate the popular public of the origins of the samples and the traditions of black rap
For over the past two hundred years, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's death has remained a mystery. There are many theories on how the great composer died, some say that he was murdered, while others say that he was ridden with sickness and extremely exhausted. Historians established that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart suffered from different illnesses, but no one knows which one, if any, contributed to his death.
Music has been prevalent in America since before its foundings. From the sounds of the Indians to the music of the Pilgrims there has always been some tone of music in America. In this paper we will look at a newer form of music known as hip hop or rap, although hip hop does not have to have a rap chorus in it to be considered hip hop. Hip hop originated in the Bronx of New York City by African American kids in the 1970’s. Hip hop is a combination of many of the well known genres including but not limited to: Funk, Disco, R&B, Jazz, and Rock. Also, poetry was an influence as well.
Many of the people involved with creating rap music were trained in maintaining new technologies for people with money to afford them. These new technologies were put to use in hip hop culture as primary tools for the creation of rap music that included original black culture, “This advanced technology has not been straightforwardly adopted; it has been significantly revised in ways that are in keeping with long-standing black cultural priorities, particularly regarding approaches to sound organization” (Rose, 63). Digital samplers played a key role in the development of rap music, but they often gained legal attention. DJ’s would often mix and match different pieces of music together to create a rhythm, but this often violated copyright laws and posed questioning to the legal boundaries of using musical property and phrases. These samplers helped formulate beats of songs that were hybrids from multiple sources of music. The rhythms and sounds that were created from this new sampling technology were consistent with the historic narratives of Afro-diasporic
What can be said about the sublime? Class discussion led to the definition of sublime as the element found in travel literature that is unexplainable. It is that part of travel literature where the writer is in awe of his or her surroundings, where nature can be dangerous or where nature reminds a human being of their mortality. The term "sublime" has been applied to travel texts studied in class and it is hard not to compare the sublime from texts earlier in the term to the texts in the later part of the term. Two texts that can be compared in terms of the sublime are A Tour in Switzerland by Helen Williams and History of a Six Weeks' Tour by Mary Shelley and Percy Bysshe Shelley. There are similarities and differences found in both texts concerning individual perspectives of travel and the sublime. The main focus of this commentary will be comparing and contrasting the perspectives of Williams and Shelley within their respective texts, the language of the sublime and the descriptions of the sublime.

“Music is the key,” says Morrissey, who at this point of his life was attending a school with an abusive education system. He says this when he watches his teacher and fellow classmates finally smile while a song was being played. Furthermore, music is the key that can unlock the feelings we keep private. Three inspiring songs to come across are: Creep by Radiohead, Voices Carry by ‘Til Tuesday, and Dog Days Are Over by Florence + the Machine. Many people have experienced the feelings presented in each song: feeling like and outcast, wanting to be heard, and realizing that life moves forward.
In his book On the Sublime, Longinus rhetorically identifies five principal elements to the art of mastering sublimity, through the use of written texts. Longinus defines sublimity as, “a kind of eminence or excellence of discourse […] sublimity on the other hand, produced at the right moment, tears everything up like a whirlwind and exhibits the orator’s power at a single blow” (Longinus 347). However, there is great jeopardy when writers seek to produce subliminal messages. Longinus describes the difference between messages being falsely and truly sublime. He characterizes false sublimity as “puerile” and bombastic. True sublimity will touch the audience’s heart; it goes beyond words, allowing emotion to run through. Furthermore, Longinus outlines the five rhetorical principles in order to achieve sublimity. (1) Ethos: Greatness of Thoughts, (2) Pathos: Emotion, (3) Pathos: Figures of Speech Logos, (4) Logos: Nobile Diction, and (5) Logos: Arrangement. Blacks for year’s fought hard to receive equal rights to those whites had. The late 1950s, early 1960s was a turning point for African-Americans with the establishment of the Civil Rights Era. The Civil Rights Era represented a social movement for blacks in hopes of ending racial segregation and discrimination, especially in the Jim Crow Deep South. At the forefront of this movement was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who sought equality for the poor, victims of injustice, and African-Americans, by advocating peaceful protests. On August 28, 1963, King delivered one of the most memorable speeches of all time during the March on Washington. The mastering of Longinus’s five principals of the sublime is exemplified in King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. Moreover, the last couple of minutes o...
“Remember always that you not only have the right to be an individual, you have an obligation to be one.” Those were just a few of the many wise words of Eleanor Roosevelt. Now some begin to wonder, maybe how can they be an individual. Although most consider this main question, How does a person find their place in society? Here’s a few examples to hopefully answer that question.
