  • ENG1121 Word Count: 1227 ​How Has R&B Music Transformed
    Akinfeleye 1 Temi Akinfeleye ENG1121 4/5/2020 Professor Penner Word Count: 1227 How has R&B music transformed throughout time. ​ Has R&B music changed over time? What happened to old school R&B? What is R&B music? R & B stands for “Rhythm and Blues” it was created in the U.S by black musicians. R&B music is also mixed with hip-hop,jazz and soul. Nowadays R&B music is the most played out music. Different discourse communities and societies play R&B music almost every single day. Although R&B music is played out, more artists keep on creating the same genre with R&B music. More consumers and audiences want more old school R&B music instead of new school. New upcoming artists are changing the definition of R & B music. They are changing the genre of R&B. For instance, artists think that R&B music is a fast beat or rap music. What they don't know is that R&B should be at a slow pace and should be a heartfelt song. Most R&B music is about love,relationships, and sometimes about life. Present artists today stick with the old school R&B music such as PARTYNEXTDOOR, Jhene aiko, Chris Brown, Usher, John Legend, Rihanna and Summer Walker.The most inspired old school R&B artists are TLC, Destiny's Akinfeleye 2 child, Ne-yo and most importantly Aaliyah. Aaliyah is called the princess of R&B, because all her songs were real R&B music. Although there are artists that have created their own type of R&B music, there isn't a specific author that created the genre “R&B”.

  • Jimmy D. Lane
    Jimmy D. Lane Biography "Son of the Blues" At the age of 47, Jimmy D. Lane has already led quite a full life. The musicians he knows makes for an impressive resume. He has worked with Eric Clapton, Mick Jagger, Jim Keltner, Keith Richards, B.B. King, Van Morrison, Jonny Lang, Gary Moore, Double Trouble, Taj Mahal, Stephen Stilles, Jeff Healy, Jimmie Lee Robinson, Lowell Fulson, and Snooky Pryor, Kim Wilson, Pinetop Perkins, Johnny ‘Big Moose’ Walker, Johnnie Johnson, Kim Wilson, Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, Harry Hypolite, George ‘Wild Child’ Butler, David ‘HoneyBoy’ Edwards, Weepin’ Willie Robinson, Little Hatch, Nancy Bryan, Willie Kent, Henry Gray, Lazy Lester and Eomot RaSun. He has also worked with venerable blues greats such as Sam Lay, Hubert Sumlin, Carey Bell, Dave Meyers and his father, the legendary Jimmy Rogers. Born July 4th, 1965 in Chicago, he grew up in a household where he became acquainted with a veritable who's who of Chicago bluesmen. Muddy Waters, Howlin' Wolf, Willie Mabon, Little Walter and Albert King, to name a few, would all stop by the house to visit the "old man." Coming from this environment has instilled in Lane the deepest respect for elder statesmen of the blues. "I feel blessed and fortunate, to have known all those cats, and I do not take it for granted." At the age of eight, he began playing his dad's guitar, which he wasn't supposed to do. "I would break a string and put it back in the case like he wasn't going to discover it," Lane recalls.

Racial Gatekeeping in Country & Hip-Hop Music By Cervanté Pope Student ID #: 947767021 Portland State University Pope 2 Introduction In mass communication, gatekeeping refers to how information is edited, shaped and controlled in efforts to construct a “social reality” (Shoemaker, Eichholz, Kim, & Wrigley, 2001). Gatekeeping has expanded into other fields throughout the years, with its concepts growing more and more easily applicable in many other aspects of life. One way it presents itself is in regard to racial inclusion and equality, and despite the headway we’ve seemingly made as a society, we are still lightyears away from where we need to be. Because of this, the concept of cultural property has become even more paramount, as a means for keeping one’s cultural history and identity preserved.
