My semester project is a
comparative look at how the musical genres of hip-hop and punk rock are similar
sociologically and also follows a similar historical timeline. This concept is
one that I’ve wanted to work on for a couple of years now, ever since I first
wrote a column about it for Brookdale, my prior school’s newspaper, the Stall.
The
ultimate goal of this is to show that the predominant message that the two
genres have is one that is, for the most part, similar, and that the only real
difference between the two is that one is predominately preferred by white
people and one is not and how in today’s society, that racial divide is
becoming null and void.
I
plan to completely rework the prior article, which I will publish onto my
personal blog along with an accompanying PowerPoint presentation as well as a Spotify playlist of songs that exemplify the intertwining
ideals between the two genres.
