The other factor that takes away from this album is the two rock-rap songs, (She Watch Channel Zero!? & Party For Your Right to Fight). Maybe it’s a personal bias, because I never really like when rap and rock fuse, but I totally think they are in much better form when rapping over James Brown samples. Otherwise I can’t see any other flaws with this album. Chuck D performs like no other, and the Flavor Flav element is unique and essential to this album’s
Now a day you get a lot of reactions or impressions for other people. On how they react and how they communicate for instance you can find people that have attitude, some rude and also people that think they are better than anyone. But we know everyone want their own beauty and their uniqueness. Nobody can’t judge others by the way they look or talk. There is this quote that I heard from a movie but I never forget it says “never judge a book by its cover”.
Rhetoric plays a part in everyday life. However, I’ve noticed a lot of it in my music. I decided to pick a few songs that showed the most of the three appeals. In each song I will explain why in my opinion they used ethos, logos, and pathos and if it fits properly or not. In the song Popular by MIKA and Ariana Grande when Ariana sings “I never was a model never was a scholar but you were always popular”, she is stating that being smart didn’t compare to being popular in the world she was in.
Each article I have read is in relation with pop culture and fandom. In the article “is there something psychologically unhealthy about being a fan” by Phoebe Reilly, the author is stating that fandom could lead to a unhealthy life style and extreme obsessions. While also stating that following shows and following along with movies, books, and even sports teams can be alright and good for you with in moderation. Then “your pop-culture obsession is not a sickness” by Amanda Marcotte, is stating that being a fan, or obsessing over something is not exactly unhealthy, and can very well cause a person to become very creative. In the article “is there something psychologically unhealthy about being a fan” by Phoebe Reilly.
It provokes the thoughts that we know as normal, by using undistinguishable characters and objects, making us question what Matthew Barney was trying to express. The way Matthew Barney applies his scenes is very different from the more modern videos or movies we have today. I noticed that he used very long scene takes with a specific tune or music that accompanies each of the scenes which I did not like as it made the video feel very dull and stimulating. However, I liked how he kept emphasizing on his theme and what he wanted to deal with. I referenced from the other films and noticed that he also uses the capsule shape of the field emblem quite a lot not as the logo but things like the area, a window, etcetera.
[pic] [pic] [pic] “Discuss how Guitar Highway Rose AND two other texts of your choosing portray the issue of being on the outside” Being or feeling on the outside is a very human thing, in fact it is probably one the most common feelings that anyone would feel. Being on the outside, or exclusion, occurs in many different ways. In society there is a certain stereotype that people seem to aspire to. Everyone in society these days wants to be successful and good looking. Being famous and rich is the reason we shun those few whom do not want to live by modern standards.
Trevian Simon 11/6/12 4A Today’s hip-hop music has good songs; however, it isn’t always good to listen to. I think the song “Pop That” by French Montana is an overall good song, but it is terrible for anybodys mind. This particular song treats women with no respect, the lyrics are telling the audience that their lifestyle is the correct way to live life, and it is affecting the minds of young children, especially young ladies. Respect is not given, you have to earn it. Women that “Pop That” in clubs and other placesdoes not earn respect.
Most of us understand the difference between being racist and being politically correct, but most of us let our experiences within our own culture shape how we view people. Judging people is easy to do and quite commonly done unknowingly, but it is when we put our prejudice out on the table that our true colors shine through. I do believe that we will all learn from our mistakes and we will all be judged equally to our own judging. This film showed the very worst of people in today’s society yet also showed American civilization at its best. This film was a “Crash” of intercultural differences and racism; however there is hope in the end when most come to terms with their stereotyping problem, and that is no
SST Task 2 How does the mass media influence the perceptions of gender? This is valuable to society because a person is either a man or a woman. Within that gender lies specific roles to each person. While most people know what their individual role is regarding their gender, the mass media influences what our perception of gender is. Gender roles have played an important part in society, and today, gender and gender roles are something that is constantly changing and what people perceive those roles to be.
Integrity and personal responsibility both play a crucial role in today's society, including in personal relationships, business, and the government. First of all, integrity is important in our society today because without it we'd be living in a nation that has no interpretation of the difference between right and wrong, so people would just do whatever they want despite who it might hurt or affend. Although there will always be people that seem to have no integrity or morals at all, such as murderers and rapists, it's safe to say that most people have a set of rules and principles they live by. Many of these rules were probably taught to the people during their childhood and as they were growing up, whether it be by their parents, teachers, or even the media. People tend to hang on to these views that were taught to them, accepting them as being correct but never really analyzing them.
