  • Supplemental Music Resource
    SUPPLEMENTAL MUSIC RESOURCE Copyright 2014 by JustFaith Ministries • www.justfaith.org • 502-429-0865 YOUNG ADULT/COLLEGE Introduction “I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music.” Billy Joel Music is a powerful medium used to stir our senses and awaken us to deeper reality. The poetry of words coupled with the emotion of melody often proves to be a helpful resource for people of prayer. The Psalms of David, African-American spirituals, Taize music, all can reveal God’s movement in our lives and speak to our hearts. In the following pages, you will find five suggested songs for each J-Walking session that can be used alongside the resource CD Songs for JusticeWalkers by Bryan Sirchio. These songs may be used during the appointed time for music as transitional music, for welcoming people into the session, or to play while participants journal. Different Types of Music Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob. Psalm 81:1 The following music is diverse both in style and popularity. This sampling aims to mirror attitudes and outlooks from the Christian tradition. Some of the music is contemplative and meditative like the first chapter of Genesis; some is heavy and heartbroken like the 23rd Psalm. Some seethes with prophetic anger, demanding social change like Jeremiah’s volleys against Jehoakim. A few musical offerings sing a grateful and joyful melody like Mary’s Canticle.

  • 28 Inspirational Lauryn Hill
    28 Established 1961 Lifestyle Gossip Sunday, February 11, 2018 MGMT made new Inspirational album via email Lauryn Hill GMT made their new album via email. Ben Goldwasser and Andrew VanWyngarden have had a notoriously difficult relationship in the past Mand although they say that they are now in a better place, they prefer to work over email as Ben lives in Los Angeles and Andrew is based in New York. Speaking to The Guardian about their new record ‘Little Dark Age’, Patrick Wimberly, who co-produced the record, explained: “They’re not attached to each other because of contracts or obligations. They’ve tapped into a connection that encourages them both to dig deep into their own ideas. At times it seems like they have their own language.” However, both Ben and Andrew are happy with their relationship at the moment. Andrew said: “We’ve gone through different phases of hanging out and being, like, normal friends, and that’s not easy these days because Ben lives in LA. He’s got a dog with a backyard, and I’m in Rockaway and so we’re not like staying together and walking through parking lots like we were at college. We’ve gone through times where we had disagree- ments or it’s been tense. But we rode it out and it seems good now.” And the new record has been inspired by recent events in America. Andrew said: “There’s a lot of stuff on the record relating to the last year. What Trump has done is just expose a whole lot of things that were there already.

  • Diggin' You Like Those Ol' Soul Records: Meshell Ndegeocello and the Expanding Definition of Funk in Postsoul America
    Diggin’ You Like Those Ol’ Soul Records 181 Diggin’ You Like Those Ol’ Soul Records: Meshell Ndegeocello and the Expanding Definition of Funk in Postsoul America Tammy L. Kernodle Today’s absolutist varieties of Black Nationalism have run into trouble when faced with the need to make sense of the increasingly distinct forms of black culture produced from various diaspora populations. The unashamedly hybrid character of these black cultures continually confounds any simplistic (essentialist or antiessentialist) understanding of the relationship between racial identity and racial nonidentity, between folk cultural authenticity and pop cultural betrayal. Paul Gilroy1 Funk, from its beginnings as terminology used to describe a specific genre of black music, has been equated with the following things: blackness, mascu- linity, personal and collective freedom, and the groove. Even as the genre and terminology gave way to new forms of expression, the performance aesthetic developed by myriad bands throughout the 1960s and 1970s remained an im- portant part of post-1970s black popular culture. In the early 1990s, rhythm and blues (R&B) splintered into a new substyle that reached back to the live instru- mentation and infectious grooves of funk but also reflected a new racial and social consciousness that was rooted in the experiences of the postsoul genera- tion. One of the pivotal albums advancing this style was Meshell Ndegeocello’s Plantation Lullabies (1993). Ndegeocello’s sound was an amalgamation of 0026-3079/2013/5204-181$2.50/0 American Studies, 52:4 (2013): 181-204 181 182 Tammy L. Kernodle several things.

It sits next to Farragut Projects, tucked a few blocks away from Fort Greene Park and its neighboring brownstones. But today is Aug. 22, Day 1 of the Afropunk Music Festival. It’s 5 p.m— the hundreds of attendees gathered under the hot sun press against the barricade separating them from the empty main stage. No one wants to miss a moment of Ms. Lauryn Hill, who’s scheduled as the next performer. But Ms. Lauryn Hill isn’t the performer who gets on stage next. Transgender activist Cherno Biko leads a cavalcade of fellow protesters on stage to speak out against the violence wrought against black transgender bodies. Shagaysia Diamond, a redhead dressed in all black, is one of the protesters on a stage that promotes freedom; the banners that border it reads, “NO HOMOPHOBIA NO FATPHOBIA NO TRANSPHOBIA.” At 37 years old, Shagaysia Diamond isn’t used to large crowds.

  • Giuseppe Polise* BLACK WOMEN MATTER
    Iperstoria – Testi Letterature Linguaggi www.iperstoria.it Rivista semestrale ISSN 2281-4582 Giuseppe Polise* BLACK WOMEN MATTER: THE #BLACKLIVESMATTER MOVEMENT, BLACK FEMALE SINGERS, AND INTERSECTIONAL FEMINISM The comeback in 2015 and 2016 of some of the most successful names on the contemporary American and global music scene coincided with the flourishing of a new season of black protest that has made its way into the artistic productions of several African American stars. Through the contributions of black women singers, in particular, such music seems to have gained unprecedented attention for its articulation of black feminist discourses that are also a major issue in the latest campaigns against systemic racism and condoned police brutality in America. In view of that, the present article analyzes the intersections and cross-fertilizations between black protest culture and US black female music in the wake of the emergence of the #BlackLivesMatter.1 Debunking dangerous narratives about black womanhood and questioning standardized norms of beauty, femininity, and masculinity, both forms of black protest, in fact, contribute to dismantling hegemonic white hetero-patriarchal ideologies that oppress the lives of black women and queer subjects who are forced to the margins of American society. If active participation ̶ i.e. mass marches, sit-ins, and national strikes ̶ is fundamental in the #BlackLivesMatter agenda, protest music complements the movement by echoing its messages on an international scale. Contemporary black women icons such as Beyoncé are using their platform of visibility to share with the audience feminist statements that lay in the fabric of the movement itself. As it will be shown, such strong connection between black women's music and protest culture has a long history: it was already witnessed in the era of Civil Rights when Nina Simone insisted on black women's experience in segregated America through her immense body of work, and again, with Lauryn Hill's Hip-Hop nationally acclaimed masterpiece The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (1998).

  • Mass Manslaughter: but Less Than a Felony
    Mass Manslaughter: But Less Than a Felony As February rolls in, I don’t think it is possible to discuss rock ‘n’ roll without pausing to remember the victims of The Station fire, which happened 17 years ago. I remember the morning after, getting up to go to work with our LAN line ringing off the hook from my roommate’s mother calling to make sure he was alive. He was, but 100 music lovers were not. I went to work up in Mansfield, still not realizing the scope of the catastrophe, only to see my boss leave because two of his cousins were at the show. I can’t count over the years how many people have told me they were supposed to go or knew someone who went. It is chilling. In the end they found a patsy, a 26-year-old kid, doing what he was hired to do on every stop on the tour and never blowing up the room — till that night. The Derderians were taken care of because they were rich and well connected. Great White was banned forever from Rhode Island, but the real culprits of this mass manslaughter got off light. February 20 will always be a solemn day in here for our lost sons, daughters and everyone else harmed. We will never forget. Less Than A Felony – 27 Years After speaking of mass murder, it is refreshing to move on to a band called Less Than a Felony. 27 Years was birthed in a safe zone where Less Than a Felony conjure voodoo in a shed in Smithfield.

Both music and politics are two of my biggest interests, so I felt that this class would allow me to create a very unique final project. For my project, I decided to create my own political concept album that would analyze the role of music in certain social and political movements. Inspired by old vinyl records, this curation will contain 12 songs that are divided evenly on each side of the record. Side A will contain six songs that are considered anthems of the Civil Rights Movement, while Side B will contain six songs that are considered anthems for the Black Lives Matter Movement.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION ARTS AND SCIENCES IDENTITY AND HIP-HOP: AN ANALYSIS OF EGO-FUNCTION IN THE COLLEGE DROPOUT AND THE MISEDUCATION OF LAURYN HILL LAURA KASTNER SPRING 2017 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for baccalaureate degrees in Communication Arts & Sciences and Statistics with honors in Communication Arts & Sciences Reviewed and approved* by the following: Anne Demo Assistant Professor of Communication Arts & Sciences Thesis Supervisor Lori Bedell Senior Lecturer of Communication Arts & Sciences Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT In this thesis, I will be analyzing how Kanye West and Lauryn Hill create identity for themselves and their listeners in the albums The College Dropout and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, respectively. Identity creation will be analyzed using Richard Gregg’s concept of ego-function. By applying the three stages of the theory – victimization of the ego, demonization of the enemy, and reaffirmation of the ego – to both albums, I hope to uncover the ways that both West and Hill contribute to identity creation. I also discuss the ways in which they create identity that cannot be explained by ego-function theory. I also briefly address the following questions: (1) How does the language of ego-function differ between the artists? (2) How does their music speak to listeners of different ethnicities? (3) What role does gender play in ego-function? Does the language of ego-function differ between genders? ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements ………………………………………………………………......iii Chapter 1 Introduction ................................................................................................. 1 Kanye West: The Jerk and the Genius ............................................................................
