The Beatles were probably the most important trendsetters of the 1960s in Britain and for many people, the sixties mean the Beatles and vice versa (Hecl 36). The Beatles dominated pop music and become a part of the world’s cultural history (Hecl 5).

Hip-hop is an influential form of music that displays an artist’s honest and revealing story that many of the general public can relate to. One of the many songs that I can relate to is “Love Yourz” written by J Cole. The song talks about how Cole reflects on the most important things in life such as love and happiness. He realizes that the money and fame didn’t bring him the happiness he desired. To gain true happiness, he needed to appreciate himself and those that love him.
In December of 1969, their very first album, “Diana Ross Presents the Jackson 5” was a big hit in the charts with their single “I Want You Back”
However, the purpose of them playing this song is not to move a plot forward, but to establish themselves. This song was recorded at the beginning of their career when they had gained popularity but were only known as being a rock-n-roll group.
