Analyzing lyrics pertaining to violence, racism, and Antisemitism in popular music

Analyzing lyrics pertaining to violence, racism, and Antisemitism in popular music

4. Analysis of one song or composition that best demonstrates what makes this artist unique, using the analytical methods and musical terminology we use in class eg. textures, rhythms, style, tempo etc… You may quote song lyrics if it helps your case. Your analysis should back up and clarify any claims you made in the previous section.

5. Brief conclusion. Your paper should cite at least TWO print source (or E-versions found in the library: books, magazines, or periodicals etc. but not general encyclopedias or textbooks) and TWO Internet sources (other than Wikipedia). These, along with any additional sources you use (such as CD liner notes, artist interviews, videos or documentaries, etc.) should be properly cited within your text in MLA or Turabian/Chicago format and included in a separate “Works Cited” page included in as part of your paper.

Examples of Turabian/Chicago citations are available at: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/717/01/http://www.lib.umd.edu/ues/guides/citing-chicago-notes

THIS IS IMPORTANT. Regardless of whatever style you use, this information supersedes that style in the following: use italics for album titles and band names and double quotes (” “) for song titles. When you quote several lines of a text (including lyrics), indent that text.
