Working with Hip Hop
In this course, you will be working with hip hop as a musical genre and with hip hop lyrics as a type of literature.
First, you will be asked to analyze a hip hop song, looking at what defines it within terms of genre and use of language, sound and thematic content. Thus you will become better at combining your skills in music and English when solving a problem of this type. Second, you are to write a song yourselves, using your new knowledge of the genre and its use of language. You will use Garageband to compose the music and record the song, and you must share it on YouTube. These two products, the analysis and your own song, must be shared on these pages. Finally, you will enter your songs in an online competition in which other students at Rysensteen will vote for their favourite song. The group behind the winning song will get a prize! |
