Big Sean

Big Sean is an excellent rapper from the city of Detroit. In the past he has produced several song that have reached the top ten song according to iTunes. Big Sean is 24-year-old male rapper that has had much success in the music industry. After signing with Kanye West’s record company in 2007, Big Sean became an artist working his way up to the top. Then in 2008, Big signed with Def Jam Records. It wasn’t until 2011 when Big Sean dropped the album “Finally Famous”, that Sean became famous. He received three hit single from this album alone, it was his ticket for fame. He has since become known world wide, and working on new hit singles. His most recent was single was called “Mercy”, where he calibrated with Kayne, Pusha T, and 2 Chainz. This song was released, and that same week it reached iTunes top ten because it was an amazing song. According to Big Sean’s website, his recent activity has been dealing with kids and problem of attendance in Detroit schools.  Back when Sean was in high school he ended with a 3.7 GPA at Waldorf high school. So he recently has been visiting schools with high attendance rates in Detroit to reward them for their hard work.  This to me shows how generous Sean is in giving back to the city that made him into wheat he is today. You don’t see this in many rappers today; they in turn give shout out to this hometown but never give back.

Like most rappers Sean started exposing his music to the world through the free music industry. Many older Citizens of the Untied States dislike this industry for they blame it for the economic struggles. Unlike the older population, the younger population enjoys this industry for there is no costs that come with music. Me being part of the younger generations, I enjoy this industry for it is a way to find good new music for young artists. Some of Sean’s first mix tapes in the free music industry were “Uknowbigsean” and “Finally Famous”. These tapes are in my opinion some his best work that he ever created for it what started his career as a rapper and he has been good ever since these tapes. He then went on to create “ Finally Famous Vol. 3” which I think is his best work he has created to this point. The reason I like it so much is because it has the most significance to me. It tells listeners about how coming up is hard but when you’re at the top that giving back it the most important thing you can do.  As I sated before Big Sean’s Most recent work has been “Mercy”, and let me tell you this song was so good that in the first week it grabbed so much attention it hit number one the iTunes charts. Since then big has talked about coming out with more calibrations with “Good Music” over the 2012 summer. So to all you Big Sean’s Fans watch out for new music in the summer of 2012.

Literary Essay

As a kid i was young and innocent, but now I am becoming a man. The years coming up for an kid to a man was a state of maturity. I hit that state when i was thirdteen, it was very different for i was hitting puperty. Everything started to change for me, toys i used to like, didn't care for anymore; foods i didn't like before started to taste good. Just like John, I had a rite to passage in which made me mature. However, Johns journey to the Place of the Gods makes him more courageous, knowledgeable, and independent.

As john traveled to the Forbidden land, he became more couragous. For instance, when john is faced with the fear of dieing as he enters the forbiden land, instead of turning back, he pushes forward. Here john show how his courage and dertermination to complete his task, over takes the fear of dying on his journey. Also, he fact that John is completeing a journey that no eles has done, is impressive and  shows bravery to the hill people. Then when John touches metal after being chased by dogs, only priests can touch metal. John is not yet a priest, but is the son of a priest and since metal is from the place of the dead, he is not suspose to touch it or he might die. But instead, john overcomes death to save him from sure death, the dogs, by touching the metal. Though John's journey, he became more coragous though he experiences with death itself.

After going to the Forbidden land and back to he hometown of the hill people, John has collected a great deal of new Knowledge. For example, when John Finds that they are more technologicly advanced before then in the time he is in. Hunting with bows and arrows now and living in the hills, the hill people are very outdated compared to past where they had guns and lived in the cities. John sees how in the past they had more advanced tools then they had which was confusings to him, in the sense that hill people didn't know about this techonology. Then John finds out that the forbidden land is not filled with gods but normal people. This creates the idea that all the priests have told them about the gods is a lie. John wants to tell all the hill people about this concept but it would create conflict within the tribe.

Macklemore and Ryan Lewis

Macklemore is a rapper and Ryan Lewis is a DJ that met over a beat on Myspace, back in 2006. They both live in Seattle, which gives them an edge because being know as a rapper in that city gives you a big fan base. Recently, these rappers have been on tour and have been selling out shows through out the country. They were both on this years XXL freshman edition with their song "Victory Lap", this just goes to show how good they have become in the recent years. However, in the years coming up, Macklemore battled a substance abuse problem. After high school, he was trying assorts of drugs, but mostly oxycontin and then he hit rock bottom. After living in his moms basement, Macklemore went into rehab and began to work on his music again. In 2005, he released the album "The Language of My World", then in 2009, he released "The Unplanned Mixtape, and then in 2010, him and Ryan Lewis released, "VS. Redux". He then was signed by the label company The Agency group. His first big hit was in 2010, called "The Otherside", this song was cleverly made tell the story of  his struggle with abuse and his developing rapping career, to make one amazing song.

Macklemore is a young rapper that is trying to make his name known coming out of Seattle. After coming of a substance abuse, he has become a devoted, hard working rapper. Many thought that he would never make in the raping world, for he is white and coming out of Seattle. But instead of letting that bring him down, he used it to his advantage. Since not many rappers come out from Seattle, their are not many hometown stars. So he became their idol, and he give back to the fans that make him famous to show his love for them. He throws a pizza party every year for them to show their talents to him. The most popular song for him today is the song "And We Danced", which personally is a very good song but is not his best work. One of the things that I really like about his music is the fact that he puts the piano in his songs.   This is something that I can really relate to for I play the piano. He also throws in a lot of Irish beats which is neat in the sense that it unique and not many rappers do it. My favorite song that is out right now by him has to be "Can't Hold Us", for it has a fast beat that really gets me going. I Also like the song "Wings", that tell about how little kids look up to the famous people. However it also tells about shoes, which I can also relate to because I love buying expensive shoes. The best line from the song is "You are what you wear and we are what we wear", this line is one of those quotes you can write a book on. It is so true and hits it on the dot with kids today, because you can tell what a person is like based on what they wear.
