  • Y'all Call It Technical and Professional Communication, We Call It
    Y’ALL CALL IT TECHNICAL AND PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION, WE CALL IT #FORTHECULTURE: THE USE OF AMPLIFICATION RHETORICS IN BLACK COMMUNITIES AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS FOR TECHNICAL AND PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION STUDIES by Temptaous T. Mckoy July 2019 Director of Dissertation: Michelle F. Eble Major Department: Department of English This project seeks to define and identify the use of Amplification Rhetorics (AR) in the social movement organization TRAP Karaoke and at three Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). In highlighting the AR practices in Black communities. This project will provide insight into what these practices and spaces have to offer to the field of Technical and Professional Communication (TPC). AR is a theoretical framework that details the discursive and communicative practices, both written/textual and embodied/performative performed/used by individuals that self-identify as Black and centers the lived experiences and epistemologies of Black people and other historically marginalized groups. AR are #ForTheCulture practices that provoke change within the academy, regardless the field, however for this project I focus on the field of TPC. The phrase “For the Culture,” is used to describe or allude to an action that can benefit those individually or within a community much like TPC artifacts. This project identifies rhetorical practices located in Black spaces and communities that can be identified as TPC through the reclamation of agency, the sharing of narratives, and the inclusion of Black epistemologies. It illustrates just what it means to pass the mic and remind folks that we not ‘bout to act like there aren’t people of color at the TPC table.

Advertisement - Continue Reading Below. DC talent Ari Lennox 's brand of neo-soul is pretty and feminine, but nixes the idea that to be womanly means keeping quiet about the messy and personal. Rarely does she fail to take her greater aesthetic into consideration: For instance, her debut album Whack World , was a minute visual album odyssey inviting others into her obscure world. Eilish is the bad guy, and you damn well should be scared of this year-old because it's terrifying how talented she is, which she proves on hit. Synthesizers and Hatchie's hushed, yearning voice make "Stay With Me" euphoric, even as she recalls a romance that's ended. This cover of a Dire Straits song has managed to eclipse the original in pop culture, and doubles as a karaoke favorite. Here Birdman comes in handy as a useful example. We're more familiar with causes of death like heart attack , cancer and stroke. The translation sees dollar signs and the finer things in life on the singer's mind, but even as she ascends to pop domination, there's a cynicism to her tone over the upbeat song. It doesn't sound like disco in the slightest, but it sure is a movie-like party we're all longing for an invite to.

  • Pop 2 a Second Packet for Popheads Written by Kevin Kodama Tossups 1
    Pop 2 a second packet for popheads written by Kevin Kodama Tossups 1. Palmistry discussed this project with the artist on the radio show The Candy Shop. A song from this ​ ​ project that goes “blue summers sitting high in the window” repeats the same word 96 times. Another song from this project kicks off with the words “I’m so bored” and describes the artist’s lazy routine. A <1> single from this album features ​ synthesizers that sound like crashing waves alongside lyrics like “I ​ know in the future / We won’t see each other”. This album’s lead single is a glitch-pop ballad called <2> “forever”, and its cover art shows the artist lying on a bed holding a camera. ​ For ten points, name this ​ quarantine concept album that was created in six weeks by Charli XCX. ANSWER: how i’m feeling now ​ 2. This song’s (A-A-F) (A-A-E) (A-A-D) [read separately] bass line is briefly played by a sawtooth wave synthesizer right before its second chorus. The music video for this song is based on a Venn diagram in which four concepts intersect to form an orgasm, and it shows the singer ripping out an animated heart <1> .​ A Persian flute sample opens this track, and its singer references “the simulation we’re dreaming in”. This track repeatedly shouts “Come on!” and asks “who needs to go to sleep when I’ve got you next to <2> me?”. ​ For ten points, name this second single from Dua Lipa’s sophomore album Future Nostalgia.

  • Go-Go Forever
    mtv news FEATURE GO-GO FOREVER THE RISE, FALL, AND AFTERLIFE OF WASHINGTON, D.C.’S ULTIMATE RHYTHM 06/14/2017 MTV ERICKA BLOUNT DANOIS Ericka Blount Danois is based in Baltimore and writes about music and culture. Her first book, 'Love, Peace and Soul,' about the show 'Soul Train,' was published in 2013. We had made plans to walk the more than 10 treacherous blocks to the show that Saturday autumn night in the Chocolate City. So we walked from my friend Cheryl's building on 14th and Fairmont Streets all the way to The Black Hole, one of the most popular go-go spots in town, strolling past hustlers and the infamous Clifton Terrace projects as we went. We weren't in heels, like most girls going to nightclubs. We wore New Balance tennis shoes with our Guess jeans. At The Black Hole, you had to be prepared to run at any moment. In Washington, D.C.'s 1980s go-go scene, The Black Hole was what CBGB was to punk rock, what The Paradise Garage was to dance music. You couldn't call yourself a true go-go head if you'd never stepped past its hefty bodyguards after wading through the mass of bodies stretching down Georgia Avenue whenever a show was happening. It was a hole in the wall, really — a former car garage that regularly packed in excess of 400 sweaty teenagers. And it was our spot to hear uncut go-go, dance all night, and be seen. Dancing there was the closest thing that a non- churchgoer could find to catching the spirit at a Pentecostal church, and as close to a juke joint as a saved soul could experience.
