Week 6 - 9.28-29


-syncopated, indeed!-



Mon/Tue 100 min


Warm Up 15min


Name a few of the producers (people who make the music for the singers/rappers (e.g. Quincy Jones made the music for Michael Jackson's "Thriller", Dr. Dre made the beats for Snoop Dogg's "Who Am I?") you appreciate. If you don't know which producer you like, think about a song you enjoy for the music, then use your search tool to find the producer of the song.


P.O.T.D. I like Paramore because I can relate to their music and what she is singing. Except for her twilight song. I like that song, but I can not relate to it because I can care less about twilight. Another Band I like is Slipknot because they are freaky and creepy, and I like creepy things if you know me. Then I like Tupac because he the things he raps about is a truth and he was so real. And the beats to his music made it even better. TLC is another group and Destin'y child. I like too many.

Which is More offensive

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2009

Wednesday, Kanye vs Joe

new air yeezys, now in stores


Warm up - 15min

What was a more offensive event: Kanye & Tylor Swift or Obama and Joe Wilson?

Kanye’s incident is getting more attention, why is that? I think that the Obama and Joe Wilson was more offensive because it was a racist comment. But the real reason that the Vma awards are more watch than the news. Duh.

There is a such thing as too Strict Parents

A long time ago, when my big sisters were little, they were not allowed to wear pants, tank tops or make-up of any kind. They weren't even allowed to wear Cherry Chap-Stick. They weren't allowed to wear clear finger nail polish either and my father told them it made them look like jezebels. I though he was strict to me. Nope, him saying that my dress that goes 1 inch above my knees wasn't nothing. It was a church dress with ruffles. I had on stockings and he said he told me not to buy any skimpy clothes. I had bought a sweater to go over it. I looked like a school teacher and he doesn't like my dress. The next day he got over it and I wore my dress to church. My sisters on the other hand, everything they did they would go to hell. They weren't allowed to watch movies (disney or educational), they weren't allowed to go to school dances. They were not allowed to go out unless it was for church or with family or close friends. So, when he left church, he loosened up a bit, little by little. He definitely is not that strict anymore. Oh yeah, their dresses had to be at least an inch below the knees. Now they are very grown with kids so my big sisters can do and wear what they want.

I think **** should be banned

I think you'll understand what I'm talking about once you keep reading why I think **** should be banned. First of all, it is going against God and what he said about waiting until your married. Second of all sex should not be displayed out to the world especially for money. And what about the poor women who regrets doing what they did, it will stick with them for life and since it was already on the web, people already know that they were whores not to sleep with them. **** is inappropriate for children who accidently find these websites and the photos and they don't know what they are looking at. I honestly never asked questions about sex until 6th grade because when I tried to ask my parents they started to tell me things and my mom said something about my something and it scared me out of asking or thinking about sex. I found out everything about sex at school. My parents don't talk to me about sex they just tell me if I have I will be punished, and I will go to hell. So... They are basically saying, I don't need to know anything about sex because I am not going to have it until I'm married. (But we don't know that so why won't they teach me?) Oh yeah, I am not allowed to have condoms because condoms are for people who have sex before marriage. For most of you, you would disobey, but I can't disobey my parents so I won't do it. I think **** should be banned because it temps people into doing thing they should not be doing.
