.... family room with sheet rock walls and four ninety degree corners. The second consideration is placement of speakers. The corners of a room are the perfect spot for your speakers. You shouldn't position them flush against the wall, but put the back of the speaker into the corner, so each side of the speaker is against each wall. For this reason, the bass is extended (louder), and the tweeters, mid-range, and woofers give you their undivided attention. Where to sit is simple, but it takes some easy calculations to find the perfect spot. There is a common rule for a person to experience the full effect of the music. In order to do .....

.... A few underground artists have moved up mainstream music. The reason being is for (fame and money). Not for the love of it anymore. A person who has won the Scribble Jam back in 97, he is a well respected person. Now, he lost respect from many people. Reason of this was because he was asked how he felt about being an unknown artist into an artist who is well-known. He replied, “I know I lost respect. But I had to raise my daughter. I didn’t go to high school and this was all I had� (Fanatic 1). Though, emcees such as Buck65 state their opinion about Eminem. “Eminem was a great emcee. Choosing that path made him famous and wealthy. .....

.... or hours in a studio, writing 15- minute songs, and playing elaborate shows with spectacular stage performances in front of thousands of people in large arenas really angered punk bands. Punk songs were generally simple and rather short. The lyrics told the way the members of the band felt. They played small shows and did not put on any elaborate performances. The Sex Pistols were the epitome of a punk band. They were discovered in an antifashion clothing store in London called Sex by Malcolm McLaren, the store’s owner. Johnny Rotten, the band’s lead singer, was found while singing along to the jukebox. Sid Vicious, bassist, never learned to pla .....

.... is a Canadian. He is a man. When I picture myself at fifty I picture myself like him. We left for the concert on Tuesday morning and we arrived in the city at about noon. My uncle drove me and my cousin Edward up. We bummed around the city for a while and then we went to Jen's place where we were staying. There were a few other people from Inverness staying there as well. My uncle, Edward and I left for the concert at around quarter to seven. We kind of got lost. We got to the show at around seven thirty. While we were in line waiting to get in I could here the band that was performing. It was then that I realized what I was about .....

.... here but finds the matter important enough speak out for. I admire her for taking that stand by singing out for what she herself believes in. The lyrics are not merely someone's state of mind it actually confronts you with certain questions. The finger is pointed at the listener; I think guilt and innocence they are a matter of degree what might be justice to you might not be justice to me.3 This is a clear example of DiFranco addressing the listener. One is almost forced to contemplate over such a line. DiFranco wants you to think about what justice means to you. So you soon realize that listening to the song just is not enough. DiFran .....

.... one of the best and most well known bands around, and still is. On August 27, 1987, was on their way to Copenhagen to do a show with Ozzy when their tour bus flipped over throwing Cliff Burton from the bus. killing him instantly when the bus rolled on top of him and smashed his body. "I saw the bus lying right on him. I saw his legs sticking out. I freaked. The bus driver, I recall, was trying to yank the blanket out from under him to use for other people. I just went ‘Don’t fucking do that!’ I already wanted to kill the guy. I don’t know if he was drunk or if he hit some ice. All I knew was he was driving and Cliff wasn’t alive an .....

.... derogatory context. It is similar to the way rappers often speak of their male friends using the term “nigga." Both terms have negative meanings in mainstream America, but in the rap culture, they are both positive terms. Bitch is used to refer to a woman who is capable of taking care of herself (Krohn and Suazo 141). It is widely accepted in word in the rap culture. It is even used by such female rap artists as Lil’ Kim, the self proclaimed “Queen Bitch� and DaBrat who refers to herself as the "baddest new bitch in hip hop" during her song entitled "Give It 2 You." Many of the same people who view rap as offensive to women also say .....

.... get one until about a year later. When he got the guitar Chris Jonnou, Ben Gillies, and he, were bored. So they decided to start a band. When they did they made up a song called "Tomorrow." They entered it into a contest that was held in their city. The judges loved it, so they got to record a single with the song "Tomorrow." Their first single. Then they played it on the radio and everybody loved it. Everybody went and bought the single. A music company called Epic records came to them and they signed a record deal. They made their first album "Frogstomp." They started to put a band together in 1992. They started in Australia. All of them l .....

.... around in a benz' and have girls fill the whole thing. What these kids don't understand is that Too Short didn't get to where he is by pimping or selling drugs, he got to where he is by some simple rules discussed in his song "Gettin it". First of all, an important ingredient to the song is how it appeals to kids. With it's ghetto beat and monster bass the song is something that kids feel cool listening to. This is his first success ingredient, getting the attention of his audience so that they will listen to his message. His message is of course the best thing about the song. It explains to kids to "stop just hangin out, set your self some goal .....

.... couples it with calypso, ya-ya, and mento (a form of calypso) from the islands to create the Jamaican ska. The sound of ska is unique to Jamaica and is the original "music of Jamaica." Its accented upbeat, bouncy rhythms, and colorful horn lines made it perfect for dancing. Ska got its name from the sound made by the guitar as it played on the off beats. This music served as the basis for the slower rocksteady music style which later spawned the ever-popular reggae genre. Ska music finally made its world debut in New York at the 1964 world's fair at the Jamaican exhibition. By this time ska was an established musical genre. Ska later emigrated t .....
