...This is Pow Wow He stood among the dancers in the grass arena, still and poised, ready to outperform his competition. Finally, the loudspeakers rang out with the beat of the drum, setting the dancers into motion for the last time that year. Slowly, they began to come alive quickening their pace as the singers cried out their song. His steps were perfect, each one placed with meaning, precisely timed with the beat. His feathers bobbed up and down, echoing his movements. Beads of sweat streamed down his painted face and caught at the end of his nose before being thrown onto the moccasin-beaten grass. His bells and headdress shook with each step, the red and yellow colors of his regalia blurring as he spun. His heart raced as the song reached its peak, his hands wet with nervous sweat. He timed his steps, concentrated on the beat, and took a deep breath, preparing for the move that would bring him victory: a complete and perfect handspring. As his feet came down over his body, thousands of Indians around the arena caught their breath. He pretended not to notice, continuing to pound his moccasins into the ground in rhythm with the drum. As the last beat rang, he froze his body in the stance of a warrior, posing as still as he had before the song began. His chest heaved and sweat poured down his broad, smiling face. I joined my family and the crowd in cheering for him, proud to be his niece. Dancers like him and moments like these are what keep our culture alive. This is why I love...

...Dre and Ice Cube, and then the song enters into the first verse that was rap by Dr. Dre. Before entering the following each verse, there is a hook in between, and the hook is sampled from the classic 1971 song with the same name Express Yourself by Charles Wright & the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band. The song by N.W.A. does not contain a basic element usually a song has – chorus. Instead of a chorus, the song uses a short hook to fill the gap between each verse. In addition, the song seems like a solo track by Dr. Dre since the whole song is only sung by one emcee. Compare to the other songs of the N.W.A., Express Yourself follows the intention of the lyric wants to call out the people to get back to the origin and be themselves, and the song also gets back the original of the hip-hop genre with one emcee solo track. Other songs of the N.W.A. mostly contains multiple emcees instead of primary...

...Mechanics of the Games Game #1 – Guess the song with a twist. This game needs 2 representatives per year. The first player, the guesser must stand behind the line which is 3m away from the second player, the buzzer. The guesser must listen to the portion of the song that is going to be played and the guesser must wait after the song is finished before s/he pops the balloon sitting at the lap of the buzzer. They must wait for the host/emcee to call them before they answer. They must say both the title and the artist of the song. Game #2 – This game needs 8 members per group, 2 representatives per year. In this game, the game masters will draw a paper that consists a pop artist after doing so the emcee will announce the artist. The group must think of the artist songs and sing at least the line of it. But before they can answer they must pop only balloon at the center, it doesn’t matter if the other team got the balloon first as long as the balloon doesn’t pop, and the other players can steal the balloon. After they pop the balloon the corresponding team members must at least sing line of any song of the artist. Then the team that popped the balloon first has the right to choose another player from the opposing team to another. If the chosen player from the another team can’t sing at least one line the first team that got answered gets the point but if the chosen player sing a song of the artist the other team will exchange another line from any song of the artist by clockwise...

...the addition of songs, changes in lyrics and different costume concepts, all of which affected the development and portrayal of various characters within the musical. Based on the book The main message that I got from this production is that we should be accepting of everyone no matter what their beliefs or actions are. This was well communicated, particularly through the staging and the way the actors portrayed the characters. The Emcee was the most interesting character to me as the audience was given hardly any context as to who he was and why he was a part of the Kit Kat Klub. I was also curious why he had developed his viewpoint on how life should be lived. I wasn’t very interested in the character Herr Schultz. He seemed like a basic character to me that didn’t have any personality traits that set him apart from other characters. His actions never strayed from what you would expect from him and he didn’t really develop or change as a character, other than perhaps a small growth in his love for Fraulein Schneider. The guy who played the Emcee did a really good job. He seemed really into his character and enthusiastic, which was appropriate to the character. The ensemble (those who played the other people in the show at the Kit Kat Klub) did a really good job. There was a section of the set that was immersive seating where the audience could sit on the stage. The actors interacted with those seated here, asking them questions such as “how are you doing?” or “is there anything...

Besides that, it can be a platform for the multiracial community to interact with one another. This event will take place on 17th August 2014. Past Progress Drafting the route, distance and location We had decided this event to take place on 17th of August, Sunday. Since Sunday is a public holiday, it is the most appropriate time of the week to hold an event to ensure people from all walks of life are able to participate and be a part of this event. We have decided to divide this event into 3 categories: 5km, 10km and 21km. Moreover, we had decided to locate the marathon around Merdeka Square at Kuala Lumpur.

...Davon Keppel Professor Todd Craig English 112 3/19/16 What Is Happening to The Message? Throughout history, poets were known for telling the people what was going on in either their country or town. Hip-hop was born as a descendant from poetry. But as it began its craze was due to the DJ scratching different beats together. As the DJ began to like the music they created it became background sound to the lyrical Emcee. Everyone wanted to know what the Emcee had to say and how they would rhyme. I have noticed that the positive message in the Emcees rhyme’s and political statements that rap music started with began to deteriorate over time. It was as though hip hop went from talking about what was going on currently in a positive way, to rappers encouraging violence as promoting a negative message. Since the 1980’s to current time there has been a persistent problem of how hip-hop has changed. Grand Master Flash’s “The Message” is a sociopolitical rap song that is truly about poverty and how inner city life was in America in 1982. The first verse speaks to the apparent struggle in his time, “Got no money to move out, I guess I got no choice”. Many people at the time, even though their surroundings were not safe, had no money to move away. Another verse from Master Flash “Rats in the front room, roaches in the back/ Junkies in the alley with the baseball bat” is a light way to show the public what is going on in some neighborhoods. In the 1980’s there was a crack epidemic...

...Arnold “Gatemouth” Moore Mable Osemwegie Tennessee State University Arnold Dwight “Gatemouth” Moore was one of America’s most popular blues singers in the 1940s before becoming a renowned religious leader, radio announcer, and gospel singer. Moore was born in Topeka, Kansas on November 8, 1913. He sang ballads and spirituals as a youngster in his hometown and as a teen, he left with a traveling show called the Port Gibson-based Rabbit Foot Minstrels. When the traveling show ended, he ended up in Clarksdale around 1934. A year or so later he caught a ride to Memphis and launched a new career as a blues shouter. At a show in Atlanta an intoxicated woman gave him his nickname, he recalled “I opened my mouth and she looked up and hollered, ‘Ah, sing it, you gate mouth S.O.B.”. Moving between Memphis, Kansas City, and Chicago, he toured with some of the country’s top bands, wrote and recorded hits such as “I Ain’t Mad at You Pretty Baby,” “Did You Ever Love a Woman,” and “Somebody’s Got to Go”. Both B.B. King and Rufus Thomas considered Moore a major influence and remained close friends with him through the years. Moore was ranked in the top rung of vocalists in national polls by the Defender when he felt the calling to preach. He carried his flair for showmanship with him into the ministry, as a gospel singer, recording artist, as the host of radio and television programs, and as a raconteur whose tales could stretch the limits of belief. ...

...The erroneous vocabulary or the mispronunciation of words resulted in my teachers noting faults in my writing or errors in my presentation. As a result, public speaking became a major handicap for me. I would get extremely nervous and stutter my words because I possessed little confidence in my speaking skills; nonetheless, I did not let that get me down. To overcome this challenge, I began to read aloud to improve my vocabulary and pronunciation; I also had my friends correct my mispronunciations when we spoke to each other. I joined clubs that helped me improve my public speaking skill such as Business Professionals of America, Debate, and Project Diversity. I pushed myself to ameliorate my public speaking skills by becoming an emcee during the Project Diversity show and becoming the secretary for Project Diversity for the past two years. Taking action to enhance my public speaking skills proved to me that determination will pay...
