  • A Dip Into Frank Ocean's Music and Marketing
    A Dip Into Frank Ocean’s Music and Marketing [Draft 3 of Complete] A Senior Project presented to the Faculty of the Music Department California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Arts in Music Senior Project Advisor: Alyson McLamore by Katharine Gardias Winter 2019 Gardias 2 Table of Contents Introduction …...………………………………………….... 3 Chapter 1: The Becoming of Frank Ocean ……………....... 5 Chapter 2: Ocean’s Solos and Singles …………………… 10 Chapter 3: A Handful of blond ……………………………16 ​ ​ Chapter 4: Frank Ocean’s Musical Themes …………….... 25 Chapter 5: Non-Traditional Marketing …………………... 31 Conclusion ……………………………………………….. 35 Bibliography…………………………………………….... 37 Gardias 3 Introduction Famed musician Frank Ocean is known worldwide for his individualistic approach to ​ music and enigmatic persona. His music has gained critical acclaim and success over the past ten years, winning two Grammys as well as countless other awards. By avoiding the traps faced by ​ mainstream artists, Frank Ocean has resisted allowing others to control his art and creative process. Frank Ocean released various projects throughout his career that assisted in the growth and exposure of himself as an artist. His works include two studio albums, eight music videos, a visual album, and eighteen singles. Many of his original songs have charted countless times on the Billboard Hot 100, both on his own and in collaboration with others. Eight of his solo efforts ​ ​ have reached that standing, including “Novacane,” “Thinkin Bout You,” “Chanel,” “Nikes,” “Ivy,” “Pink + White,” “Solo,” and “Nights.” All of his compositions include an emotional narrative as well as a beautifully composed musical structure.

  • The Difference in the Same Action
    THE DIFFERENCE IN THE SAME ACTION The substantiality of black feminism versus white feminism, as illustrated by Beyoncé’s appropriation of Pipilotti Rist’s Ever is Over All (1997) By Rosanne Jonkhout 2 Introduction: Celebrities are increasingly using their platform to address particular social issues. Take the last two years alone: We have witnessed quarterback Colin Kaepernick taking a knee during the American national anthem in protest of police brutality.1 Kim Kardashian wrote an essay on the sexual objectification of women’s bodies.2 Singer Frank Ocean questions gender stereotypes with album Blonde (2016).3 Kendrick Lamar released a sophisticated album To Pimp A Butterfly (2015) targeting the interrelations of cultural and institutional racism.4 There are many more examples but the much anticipated, recent visual album Lemonade (2016) by musician Beyoncé caused its own kind of stir. The scene accompanying the song Hold Up is strikingly similar to a video-installation by Pipilotti Rist called Ever is Over All (1997). The connection between these two scenes has been made before, but both the connection and the meaning behind it have not been studied. Its research might prove relevant since Beyoncé is a representant of the gender politics of black feminism in media studies. Ever is Over All is famous in its feminist symbolism and with Lemonade frequently been described as a ‘love letter to black women’,5 this research will therefore focus on feminist theory, specifically intersectional feminism. The term feminism will be approached with regard to the definition by Oxford Handbook Online which defines feminism as ‘a rejection of the ideology of patriarchy’,6 in all its forms: it recognizes injustices from legal- institutional sexism to the most subtle, microcultural forms of sexism which applies seamlessly to Beyoncé’s case for its intersectionality.

  • What Happened to Girl Power? Girls and Nostalgia
    Volume 5, Issue 1 February 2012 What Happened To Girl Power? Girls and Nostalgia JULIA DANE, University of East London ABSTRACT This paper will draw on qualitative data collected through interviewing girls talking about music video, to interrogate how girls understand and negotiate contemporary discourses of femininity, which are produced as potentially offering new spaces of negotiation for girls (McRobbie, 1997), and in particular the concept of girl power. The data was collected across a series of focus groups conducted with girls aged thirteen and fourteen. In some ways the advent of girl power marked a division in feminist generations. Although the implication of a divide between generations of feminism is conceptually useful in framing the idea of new and old femininities, there are of course no clear cut divisions. Through analysis of the girls’ talk, this paper will highlight how the girls define girl power through a discussion of what is not girl power, and express nostalgia for the loss of the girl power they identify as represented by the Spice Girls. KEYWORDS girl power, focus groups, conversation analysis, girls’ friendships, nostalgia Introduction Popular female artists today perform a femininity which is ‘feminine and feminist at the same time, merging notions of personal agency with the visual display of sexuality’ (Genz, 2010: 106). Sexuality has become linked to empowerment producing a pluralistic, paradoxical postfeminist position’ (Ibid.). Beyoncé’s ‘Run The World (Girls)’ (Knowles, 2011) offers a useful example, having been described by Jocelyn Vena of MTV News as a ‘female empowerment/girl power type of song’ (Vena, 21st April, 2011).
