When i go @ school, all i think about is being a nurse and making the big bucks, when hit the nursing floor on 3rd floor all the showcases give me motivation, 2 do what i gota do. Frm all the research I've done i here OHC is where its at 2 cop young nursing degree. They say many nursing have left OHC, and went 2 work at some of the best hospitals in chicago and went ahead 2 some of the best universities 4 nursing.
I just want 2 be a successful....>>>> Nurse
All i ever wanted was 2 be a nurse.....
Now I'm finally making it happen.....'
OHC is helping me reach my goals and dreams
OHC nursing Stand upppppp
If i was an outsider, i would think this rap was positive, for it showed a student that was interested in becoming a nurse, and having a very strong determination to succeed in life. I would think that OHC was a good school to attend for nursing. I personally don't think this rap would be consider a contribute to black ghetto dysfunctional culture, however it was ghetto but gave positive influence.
or is it on life support cause shorty can hold the doh[door]
flash his dough[money]
but loose his mind when i walk past slow.

Response:
I honestly thought this was a challenging question i may have changed my answer about three times.I would have to say if i were an outsider to this college and an avid listener to rap music if i were introduced to these lyrics i would say that these lyrics are potitive.the overal overtone of these lyrics depict a woman wo desnt like being objectified by the way she dresses and is tired of other women of the same age disliking her pbecause she is particularly appealing to thier spouse.the woman is not in persuit of anybodys boyfriend and she dresses the way she dresses because she wants to despite the rude comments and atention.i would even say ans an outsider that these lyrics are empoweing.the woman clearly doesnt feel as thoughshe needs to follow anybodys rules nomater how she dresses people will act the same way.
As an outsider to this college i would thin kolive harvey collegev was full of younger women some who dress nmore trendy and sexier than others.i would think that the men were perverted pigs according to these lyrics.
i do think these lyrics contribute to black dysfunctional culture becasue it depicts sexis gender roles amd objectification of women acoording to the book "The hip hop wars"
well to me culture is not a right or wrong. it is something that we consume from birth. culture is like an insticnt. it includes religion, morals, and norms. there is no culture greater then the other. our cultrue provides the way we dress, the way we live, and even the way we love, or make love. our envioronment is culture. culture is like energy... its never lost its just change from one generation to the next.
Intro:This is but a mere portion of a semi-important life
Far from a complaint, but a mere look at the present showing you the changes that I made
The proverbial lemonade that I made
I made my mistakes, you see life's lemons often times come in a abundance,
In conjunction with the pressure that we're under
Underrated some would say, hated, and some say it's the things I say or how I say em.
And I admit, in this race I tend to struggle to relate in words
It's like I'm an alien who alienates by the herd, so as far as being heard
I guess I gotta wait, deprived by the station's eye
Wale, more times than not, am not for whom the air waves
Thank God for the free thinkers, for you keep me in mind,
In this state of mind that I'm in, for you keep me in the race with the baton that yall give
And they hype beat, street wear, Versace and Vuitton that I'm in
And really don't matter unless yall comin with
No days off, may we rip the face of the whole game off,
I'm gon say it to yall, I'm gonna put my faith in yall when I don't understand me
They say I'm runnin hip-hop but I'd rather unify with yall then stampede
And lastly for everybody who doubted I can't live without you, please
Continue to inspire the fire that is my re-dedication to greatness yall
Paint a picture to A.D. to freestyles to famous songs we out 'chere
Unforgettable gestures, unmeasurable effort, to pleasure the masses with impeccable work ethic
Let's get it, I go hard, no days off
Paint on my face, layin back rollin the J
Feelin like these rap niggas aint as real as they say
That's why I keep my friends limited, Keep them hoes interested
Resented by the game like I'm Pete Rose in this bitch
Ain't nothin stoppin us, tell you what the problem is
I'm on top of my game but these niggas won't acknowledge it
So a nigga hungry as a plastic hippopotamus
So stoppers better take it in the blood like a phlebotomist
Verse 1:I walk around understandin the politics
Wish you niggas father understood where the condom was
'06 came, had all kind of buzz, and Isaiah say one day your time will come
Then '09 came, them bad record sales, the silver-linin couldn't find him up on any shelf
I'm in the mirror like "this a product of my skills?" and I fear that my fans say I failed
It's just my fate, lemme chill, nah flip, my shit was submarine like, under ship
Look at what I'm up against, scrutiny, criticism, everybody judgin off a single I ain't even pick
Now my eyes Chinese, keep the lau in, now I'm takin these pills and I aint even sick
Ice and Rain, Letter, Center of Attention, I wanted them on my debut, but they aint wanna listen
You know I love my team, but they couldn't see my vision,
Interscope is my fam, so I ain't tryn make no issue
I'm just tryin to paint that picture, When I'm rhyming up in this booth
Imma try to rhyme and get through, but I'm documentin the truth
Men lie. Women lie. Numbers won't forsaken, the only album flop is the album niggas hate so
A.D. two, oh no way, let's do this and God willin' niggas gonna triple up the munnies
Triple up the munnies, wisdom is improvin, if no one's there to listen guess I'll put it in the music
Triple up the munnies, wisdom is improvin, I'm headin to Vienna since yall niggas ain't doin shit
My Thoughts: I think Wale's overall message in this song was to give people a insight of what he had to go through on a day-to-day basis with the industry. The name of the song really speak for itself he has a problem with the way people perceive him and how the industry is all messed up. My Favorite line was "I'm just tryin to paint that picture, When I'm rhyming up in this booth Imma try to rhyme and get through, but I'm documenting the truth". He is saying that unlike many rappers what he speak is real and you can sorta of hear his realness. This is my favorite song on his mixtape
http://http://culture.wnyc.org/articles/features/2010/sep/07/hip-hops-humble-legacy-preserved-bronx/ This article grasped my attention from the title alone, "City Helps Preserve Hip-Hop's Humble Legacy in the Bronx". So as I read into the article further I realized this project building in the Bronx was a monument to hip hop in their community. A man by the name of Clive Campbell a.k.a. DJ Kool Herc first set up the turntables and guitar amp that gave life to what is known now as the sound system and hip-hop music. He rocked many crowds in that basement and wanted to continue his legacy for many years to come for are future generation of children growing up in this community. But after the building became a poor in living conditions for the tenants the city wanted gentrification to not only the building but the community. So once this happen Mr. Campbell took the initiative to get support from the Senator and other important people to help support re-building the the building that was ver costly. After all the support the building is still standing and holds a every year "Back to school Jam" for the children. This is a way how Hip hop is still powerful today in a positive way. The writters attitude toward the event was positive because he put the spotlight on how hip hop help keep this commmunity together and keeping it's legacy alive and giving back to community as well. I feel that the author has a deep relationship with hip hop after reading between the lines of the article because he choose this as a subject to speak on and his tone was very respectful of hip hop and giving enlightenment on the history of this building and hip hop and the community of South Bronx.
This event is a great way to show that all hip hop music is not a contributing influence in black ghetto dysfunctional culture. Shows the light on a communit dealing with poverty and with help of people in the community and positive followers and money that things can work out for the better. They had a leader of the building who is a historian of hip hop DJ Kool Herc and he got the positive leaders of the community the Senator and city council to help support the movement of keeping this hip hop monument in the basement because it creates a place for the children of the community to come and be off the street. So this event proves the myth to not be fictional, and that hip hop has a positive influence in many people's life.
"The Jefferson's Theme Song"
"Well we're movin on up, To the east side. To a deluxe apartment in the sky. Movin on up To the east side. We finally got a piece of the pie. Fish don't fry in the kitchen; Beans don't burn on the grill. Took a whole lotta tryin' Just to get up that hill. Now we're up in teh big leagues Gettin' our turn at bat. As long as we live, it's you and me baby There ain't nothin wrong with that. Well we're movin on up, To the east side. To a deluxe apartment in the sky. Movin on up To the east side. We finally got a piece of the pie."
To me culture is your up bringing starting from home, your everyday surroundings. Culture is passed down from generation to generation, it is how we live our everyday life, what we eat, how we eat, what we wear, and how we act is all a part of our culture. Which our culture is taught to us by our parents. The image above is pictures of some of our great black leaders, which to me defines culture and change. It defines culture because these leaders play a huge roll in history which is a big part of culture, they fought for blacks rights., which made a change in the black culture.
My views on mathematics are very complex But I'll try to describe them in what will come next Those of you who say a phone's purpose should be What motivates studying its workings, I see Why you do, but must say I disagree Pedagogical logic's just at odds with me A fact in mathematics, wherever you find it Is not of much interest without what's behind it It's not just about getting through one more class Whether you fail a test, or whether you pass You may have that mentality, but it's a reality Some people don't think that way, I am one as you'll see When it pertains to the subjects of math And science which I am connected to past What is said in the lessons which go by so fast
Verse2
I will now shift my focus to studying science
An endeavor on which I put much reliance
That broad term refers to such disparate topics
As microbiology, ecology, and optics
But whichever you take, there is a debate
Over different approaches, and I can state
That the general consensus as of this date
Is experiments with methods already in place
My Thoughts as an Outsider. * If I was an outsider, I wouldn't think negative of the lyrics. The lyric points out facts about school reality in relation to science and thoughts about science. And in that case, it is educative and serves as a form of advice to students. With this lyrics having posted by a student of the college, I would be interested in knowing more about the college and its students. The lyrical value of this rap lyrics is safe. It has no contribution to the black ghetto dysfunctional group. It has no form of deviation from the norms of social behavior in a way regarded as bad.
"He Say She Say" (feat. Gemini, Sarah Green) (chorus) I can't, I won't, I can't, I won't Let you leave I don't know what you want You want more from me?
She said to him "I want you to be a father He's your little boy and you don't even bother Like "brother" without the R And he's starting to harbor Cool and food for thought But for you he's a starver Starting to use red markers on his work His teacher say they know he's much smarter But he's hurt Used to hand his homework in first Like he was the classroom starter Burst to tears Let them know she see us Now he's fighting in class Got a note last week that say he might not pass Ask me if his daddy was sick of us Cause you ain't never pick him up You see what his problem is? He don't know where his poppa is No positive male role model To play football and build railroad models It's making a hole you've been digging it Cause you ain't been kicking it Since he was old enough to hold bottles Wasn't supposed to get introduced to that He don't deserve to get used to that Now I ain't asking you for money or to come back to me Some days it ain't sunny but it ain't so hard Just breaks my heart When I try to provide and he say 'Mommy that ain't your job' To be a man, I try to make him understand That I'm his number one fan But its like he born from the stands You know the world is out to get him, so why don't you give him a chance?"
So he said to him "I want you to be a father I'm your little boy and you don't even bother Like "brother" without the R And I'm starting to harbor Cool and food for thought But for you I'm a starver Starting to use red markers on my work My teacher say they know I'm much smarter But I'm hurt I used to hand my homework in first Like I was the classroom starter Burst to tears Let them know he see us Now I'm fighting in class Got a note last week that say I might not pass Kids ask me if my daddy is sick of us Cause you ain't never pick me up You see what my problem is? That I don't know where my poppa is No positive male role model To play football and build railroad models It's making a hole you've been digging it Cause you ain't been kicking it Since I was old enough to hold bottles Wasn't supposed to get introduced to that I don't deserve to get used to that Now I ain't asking you for money or to come back to me Some days it ain't sunny but it ain't so hard Just breaks my heart When my momma try to provide and I tell her 'That ain't your job' To be a man, she try to make me understand That she my number one fan But its like you born from the stands You know the world is out to get me, why don't you give me a chance?"
[ LUPE FIASCO LYRICS at www.AZLyrics.com ]
"My Favorite Verses" "I want you to be a father He's your little boy and you don't even bother Like "brother" without the R And he's starting to harbor Cool and food for thought But for you he's a starver Starting to use red markers on his work His teacher say they know he's much smarter But he's hurt Used to hand his homework in first Like he was the classroom starter Burst to tears Let them know she see us Now he's fighting in class Got a note last week that say he might not pass
"My Thoughts" Lupe Fiasco's lyrics are miraculos, his music and verses definitly make you think about a situation your in or one you can relate too. In the video "He Say She Say" the mother and her child are demanding for the father to stay at home, never leave. This song carries a very strong message to father's all over; be a man to your child/ren stop walking away.Unfortunately because the father is absent, mentally the child is absent too.He began to mess up in school, stop handing in his homework, grades droped, and fighting was an option almost everyday. Lupe is speaking about thousands of children in this song who are suffering because their father's walked out on them, or they've never even met them before. This song should go down in hip-hop history because it's a wake-up call, a cry out for help to all men creating these precious babies and for the father's who choose to walk away from them.
culture in my own words is what people are adapt to and what enviroment people are raised in. Culture is the knowledge, experience, beliefs, values, attitudes, meanings, hierarchies, religion, notions of time, roles, spatial relations, concepts of the universe, and material objects and possessions acquired by a group of people during dufferent generations in life. many peeople differ in culture meaning they may value something that we may not value. when we talk about culture it also means what we may think is correct, right or wrong the other person from another culture may not because how that person was brought up to believe in

What is Culture? Culture is everything form the way you dress,talk,think,eat,smell,dance,drive, and clean. Culture ranges from the smallest detail of a person to the largest observation of a people. Culture is what divides us as a whole but also what unites us as one. Anything you can think of pertaining to a people probably has some relevance to culture. It is everything you do from day to day. Culture is a lifestyle. It is the representation and the explanation of how and why people are people. That is what culture is to me..
There’s absolutely no way around culture it’s indispensible. No matter how hard people try no one can ever maneuver without culture. It helps us to understand one another, the notion of socializing, and it also teaches us how to endure trials and tribulations. I think discipline plays a crucial role in culture. People express their feelings and struggles through reading, writing, and music. It helps provides us with different aspects of life, whether there right or wrong.
Everyone is different in their own way and culture is the tool we use to understand each other. Culture is also pervasive, its presence is everywhere. Books, fashion, art, religion, food and even language are areas of thrust. Take for instance this blog “One Mic, One World,” we’re reading each other’s outlook on the same subject, and yet we have different opinions. Quality, experience, and perception contribute to culture. It’s a process in which we develop knowledge about different ethnic backgrounds.

Lyrics from- http://www.azlyrics.com/
I think the overall message or point of this song is to show progresssion as he put in the song. Also to show that it is more to rapping then just rapping, having political connections, meeting with Oprah. To me it showed change.!
The best line to me.. Baby i’m a boss, i dunno what they do,I don’t get dropped, I dropped the label,World can’t hold me, too much ambition,always knew it’d be like this when I was in the kitchen.
He's saiding he do what ever he want, he dont know about nobody else. He could never get drop from a label, he'll just drop them. Nobody can hold him down he has to much determination to succed, he always knew he would be sucessful even when he cooking up the dope....
The chorus is saying: He got alot different ways of getting money, saying rapping is that the only way he make money. You as the listener choose one, But as you do he will be on to the next one, meaning moved on to something new.
This song is important to me because it shows progression, from being a rapper to a business man. I think this song should go down in hip hop history because, it will give alot of people that listens to his music encouragement to be sucessful in life.

Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky Are like shooting stars I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now) Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky Are like shooting stars I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Yeah I could use a dream or a genie or a wish To go back to a place much simpler than this Cause after all the partyin' and smashin' and crashin' And all the glitz and the glam and the fashion And all the pandemonium and all the madness There comes a time where you fade to the blackness And when you're staring at that phone in your lap And you hoping but them people never call you back But that's just how the story unfolds You get another hand soon after you fold And when your plans unravel And they sayin' what would you wish for If you had one chance So airplane airplane sorry I'm late I'm on my way so don't close that gate If I don't make that then I'll switch my flight And I'll be right back at it by the end of the night
Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky Are like shooting stars B.o.b. Airplanes lyrics found on http://www.directlyrics.com/bob-airplanes-lyrics.html I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now) Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky Are like shooting stars I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Somebody take me back to the days Before this was a job, before I got paid Before it ever mattered what I had in my bank Yeah back when I was tryin' to get into the subway And back when I was rappin' for the hell of it But now a days we rappin' to stay relevant I'm guessin that if we can make some wishes outta airplanes Then maybe yo maybe I'll go back to the days Before the politics that we call the rap game And back when ain't nobody listened to my mix tape And back before I tried to cover up my slang But this is for the Cada, what's up Bobby Ray So can I get a wish to end the politics And get back to the music that started this sh-t So here I stand and then again I say I'm hopin' we can make some wishes outta airplanes
Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky Are like shooting stars I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now) Can we pretend that airplanes In the night sky Are like shooting stars I could really use a wish right now (wish right now, wish right now)
Explainantion:
I like this song because the girl singing the chorus {Haley Williams} is the lead singer of a rock band called "Paramore" .i like how more hip hop artists are doing this sort of "cross over" music with artists of other genres. these lyrics communicate to me that there was a time when people didt have to sell out to be famous .the fact that "airplanes "are used as "luck symbols" shows that the artist is seeking salvation of some sort. though there is cursing in the some i think this song has an overal positive overtone and message.

To me, this track acts as a sequel to “Drop the World” off of Lil Wayne’s critically hated rock album, Rebirth. Instead of sounding as though these two were out with something to prove (that Wayne could create a rock album & that Eminem wasn’t washed up); instead the two are saturated with confidence and feel as though these previous haters have already been proved wrong. The production of “No Love” is solid (an interesting “emo” sample, props to the creativity of Just Blaze) and Wayne’s background screams sounds as though it was influenced by Drake, Wayne & Eminem’s live performance at the Grammy Awards where Wayne acted as Eminem’s hype man during Eminem’s verse. In my opinion, Lil Wayne is essentially bowing down to Eminem (at least for this song) and his lyrical talents. Ironically, I feel as though Eminem’s more abstract lyrics of songs such as “Won’t Back Down” are influenced by The Carter III.
On another note, with regards to the Kanye’s lines:
“Man get these whack cocksuckers off stage. Where the fuck is Kanye when you need him?
Snatch the mic from him,
Bitch I’mma let you finish in a minute”
Eminem is referencing Kanye’s VMA mic’ snatch from Taylor Swift. Eminem slips in a pop culture reference that he is famous for – he even adds in the hilarious “I’mma let you finish in a minute” quote. In the past Eminem has stated he believed Lil Wayne to be over-hyped but after listening to few of his albums, came to respect “the Martian.” Same with Kanye, with his preppy background and commercial competition with 50 Cent (Graduation vs. Curtis), Eminem probably thought about starting something back in the day when he was out of the game (at least as much as he had ever been since ’98). However, by this point in the album, Eminem has made it clear that he now respects Kanye & Wayne (see Talkin’ 2 Myself) and these lines are a clever plea for someone such as Kanye to come back into the spotlight and replace these “whack” less-talented rappers who are dominating the radio waves.
This track is probably not the best on Recovery (I love Eminem’s tribute to Proof in “You’re Never Over”), but is definitely the most ambitious. A true Hip hop lyric is all about success and reality. Eminem proved it in this song and also as the rating of the album increases daily. The Truth is the Recovery. Congratulations to Eminem on the comeback.
I believe culture is the way in which a group of people live their lives that is unique, sacred and valuable to them. The way children are raised what activities/events a group of people partake in ,music , fashion, crafts trades, the arts and language all of these factors make culture unique and vary from group to group. I believe a culture can be as small as a group of people to as big as millions of people in a country.
In relationship to this class hip hop culture has is highly unique and is internationally recognized. from my point of view i believe the most active participants of hip hop culture are the youth from ages 25 and younger.one major factor that identifies a person apart of hip-hop culture [or any culture] is material possessions and fashion.A culture may also poses controversial values and practices. In regards to hip hop culture many young men sag their pants and belt them below their waist,exposing their underwear. if asked they might say it makes them "look cool" when in fact they look ridiculously sloppy.Many young men are not aware what sagging pants represents.In jail if an inmate walks around with sagging pants that is a nonverbal invitation for sex.
A culture also has their own "idols" or celebrity figures. Tupac {second picture} is a prestigious figure in hip hop culture as well as many others.
Culture also has thier own forms of artwork .Hiphop culture is famous for the art of defacing public property known as "grafiti" [first picture] this art form although intricate and extraordinary is highly controversial.
To conclude, a culture is kind of many different "Worlds" inside The World all unique in its own way.
Culture is the way people carry themselves everyday throughout life. This could be illustrated through many different things such as clothing, language, hairstyle, religion and lifestyle. These are only some of the many different ways culture is brought to life, but as you can see in the picture (to the right) has many famous people which all had there own way of living creating many different cultures. But they all share one similarity throughout all those cultures which is the involvment in hip hop and having a impact on the culture of hip hop today in 2010.
