Beautiful by Eminem

As part of our English A language and literature syllabus, we studied the language of persuasion under part 2 of the syllabus. My primary source is a song written by Eminem titled ‘Beautiful’. I have chosen to write a song review of Eminem because it will help me understand the deep meanings of the massage that Eminem is trying to convey. It will be aimed to inform the target audience about the massage that Eminem tries to convey through this song. My target audience will be the people who listen to Eminem’s songs but find it hard to understand the lyrics. The features of the song are:
1. Introduction of the song and the singer.
2. Beat, rhythm, the notes and the rhymes of the song
3. Structure of the verses and the song
The learning outcomes of part 2 I am meeting are:
1. Examine different forms of communication within the media
2. Show an awareness of the potential for educational, political or ideological influence of the media
3. Show the way mass media use language to inform, persuade or entertain.
My review will appear on the internet on a site ‘genius.com’. The tone of my review is critical and analytical.

The song ‘Beautiful’, is considered as one the strongest song of relapse (the album) because he had written and raped this song when he was on drugs, and we get to know this from the lyrics. In this song Eminem tries to explain all the depression and pain that he went through when he was on drugs and he also talks about how difficult it was

    Before media, politicians and other newsmakers had to rely on word of mouth to communicate the various messages they were espousing. However, they found this was an unreliable method of communication and the first newspapers and other media mediums were created. This comes at a drawback. As media companies grow larger and larger, they become more susceptible to bias. This has lead to a proliferation of bias across the many media companies in existence today.

  • Robin Thicke Blurred Lines Analysis

    750 Words  | 3 Pages

    In modern music, women are often portrayed as sexual objects and are the targets of rape culture, and this has become a regular occurrence, leaving people to not see the wrong in it anymore. The song I have chosen to analyze, Blurred Lines, by Robin Thicke, featuring T.I. and Pharrell Williams was released in 2013. It talks about a woman who has been “domesticated” by her partner and behaves like a stereotypical “good girl”, while Thicke is saying that there is nothing wrong with exploring her more adventurous sexual side by having sex with Thicke, even though she already has a partner. He cannot let her get away, and assumes that she wants him, even if she says she does not. I believe this song is written around the idea that women are mere objects that claim to not want sex when they “really do”, in the eyes of men, ignoring the idea of consent, which is unacceptable.
