Comments on Assigment 4

Gavin - I think the connection you made between kanye sayin "good life" and then mentioning urban areas such as Atlanta, L.A etc. was very interesting. The idea of all of them having these places in commen makes it interesting to see what parts and how the culture makes them reatble to one another.

Ellen - What i liked about your analysis is the fact that you brought up the idea about it being like commercials . You made me notice that her lyrics seemed to be different versions of the slogans for the lipgloss. I also really liked the that you analyze deeply into lil mama having a "confused look on her face as in telling us "how unrealistic it is that a lip gloss will change your life."

Rachel - I thin you did a good job at analyzing the videos message. The fact that its saying materialistic things arent important, unlike the other two videos. You showed us that the artist doesnt hide what the true meaning is. They te us straight up "All you need is love."
