  • Music Preferences: a Gateway to Where? by Delia Regan
    Music Preferences: A Gateway to Where? Delia Regan Anna Maria College Author’s Note Delia Regan (‘21), Music Therapy Honor Student, Anna Maria College This thesis was prepared for HON 490-01 Seniors Honors Seminar under the instruction of Professor Travis Maruska, Associate Professor of Humanities, Anna Maria College. Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed by electronic mail. Contact: [email protected], [email protected] ​ ​ ​ 1 Abstract This paper discusses the impact of peer pressure on shared music preferences which was conducted through a survey and group interviews. The information on the development of music preferences provides the reader with background on how the music preference process begins. Peer pressure is also discussed from early childhood into adulthood. The solidification of music preferences happens around the same age as college-aged individuals, which overlaps with a decrease in the impact of peer pressure. The research focuses on college-aged individuals who completed a survey on their music preferences in individual and group settings, and then were put into groups to determine if a social setting would influence their responses to the same questions. Overall, a distinct relationship between peer pressure and music preference could not be made. Keywords: College-Aged, Group Cohesion, Music, Music Preference, Peer Pressure, ​ Social Consequence 2 Music Preferences What does music taste say about a person? Music is usually a part of daily life, whether people are aware of it or not. It can help people express themselves, regulate their emotions, and, when used clinically, can help a person regain the ability to walk. Music is powerful, but what draws people to it? Studies have been done to try and determine why people are attracted to music, and they have created multiple theories trying to answer this question.

This music developed as a part of the 'hip-hop culture' in New York, particularly among the African-Americans. Today, hip hop music has become extremely popular among the masses. With the commercialization of this genre of music, a new era of talent paved its path to give music a new feel and rhythm by using words in the interim as a form of expression. Artists like Snoop Dog, Eminem, Nicki Minaj, Black- Eyed Peas have popularized this particular genre even further. Certain artists, who were known for performing other genres also started experimenting with rap and hip-hop.

Contact: [email protected] Choutouts: Language contact and US-Latin hip hop on YouTube Matt Garley This paper presents a corpus-sociolinguistic analysis of lyrics and com- ments from videos for four US-Latinx hip hop songs on YouTube. A ‘post-varieties’ (Seargeant and Tagg 2011) analysis of the diversity and hybridity of linguistic production in the YouTube comments finds the notions of codemeshing and plurilingualism (Canagarajah 2009) useful in characterizing the language practices of the Chicanx community of the Southwestern US, while a focus on the linguistic practices of com- menters on Northeastern ‘core’ artists’ tracks validate the use of named language varieties in examining language attitudes and ideologies as they emerge in commenters’ discussions. Finally, this article advances the sociolinguistics of orthography (Sebba 2007) by examining the social meanings of a vast array of creative and novel orthographic forms, which often blur the supposed lines between language varieties. Keywords: Latinx, hip hop, orthography, codemeshing, language contact, language attitudes, language ideologies, computer-mediated discourse.
