  • Solo Erykah Badu Analysis

    The record 's biggest--and the most re-playable--highlight is Andre 3000 's "Solo (Reprise)" interlude, where he elaborately and effectually conveys the frustration and conflicts of blackness and racism in America, and approaches materialism, personal restlessness, lyricism in hip hop, and the contradictory perceptions men have of women. His trigger-happy delivery in this barely 1-minute reprise single-handedly outdoes Ocean 's entire attempts at the same topics, which isn 't shocking since Andre 3000 has been in the industry for 20 years, has a clearly developed identity, and the capacity to push the limits without going over his intended audiences ' heads. Ocean does have his shining moments, such as the harmonies that accompany the barely audible, low-throbbing bass at the end of "Skyline To. " Musically, the second-half of "Nights" is the closest he gets to commercial, but there 's enough edge in the piano jazz chords and bass synths to feel fresh. "

    My favorite two songs are by, "Twenty-One Pilots - The Judge", and "Razihel - Canvas". The reason I like both of these songs is because they have a sort of calm feeling when you 're listening to them and the rhythm they have made you want to listen to both of them more. Although I have a liking to both of them, they 're also different too. Some ways they 're different are the genres. Twenty-One Pilots is alternative hip hop, while Razihel is an electronic music producer; the genre of the song "Canvas" is Nu Disco.

    The story titled the Long Black Song has a controversial balance of power that is shown throughout the narrative. As time progresses, the struggle between men and women is heightened and there seems to be a passive partner paired with a mastery one. Sarah, a married housewife, was portrayed as being powerless within her own race, but when compared to the white man, Sarah gained physical and mental strength because she was curious about how being with the opposite race would feel, as well as the fact that black men were exceedingly domineering. Sarah was portrayed as a very frail character when equated to her husband, Silas, because the black men are the most dominant partner within an ethnically similar relationship.

    A Chorus Line was different from any of the plays that we had seen during the semester, given that it was a musical. This is definitely what I am more accustomed to from watching my friends through the years preform this style alone essentially as well as my sister playing any Broadway musical soundtrack she could get her hands on for weeks on end. This felt so drastically different from anything else we had seen in the semester because it seemed that there was no end goal or resolution, it just ended. Sure, a handful of characters grew but a lot was left to the imagination at the end of the play. One thing that always sticks out within a musical are the songs itself.

    and I think that message is important. This song is very transcendental. The first way it is transcendental is through non-conformity. Beddingfield sings, “I break tradition, sometimes my tries are outside the lines, we’ve been conditioned to not make mistakes, and I can’t live that way.” This is non-conformity since she lives outside the box, and lives how she wants.
