O.kay check this out, the topic of my prospectus is the effect that hip-hop has on society like politics, pop culture, fashion, and even dances. Just think, back in the day, hip-hop was shunned and not taken seriously, and now it is played on popular radio stations, television channels, and it has now taken politics by storm. The new "Vote or Die" motto has been promoted by hip-hop/fashion mogul, Sean "P. Diddy, Puff Daddy, Puffy, Diddy, Daddy" Combs. I am going against the arguments of Bill O'Reilly when he talks against hip-hop. My facts are coming, but this is the gist of my paper. What do you think?
Hey! I like that your topic on Hip Hop is contemporary and unique. Although I am into country music, I do enjoy hip-hop/dance music as my next favorite. I would say that I hope you are able to find sources on this topic since it is so new. But I definitely agree that music shapes society in a way so I think you're a good track with this!

I am glad you are doing your paper on hip hop. I personally love hip hop! I take it at my dance studio and enjoy just getting down with the music and feeling the beat. I am not familiar with all the bad talk about it, but I would really like to hear more about it. Hip hop is just like any other thing in this world. It is too bad that it was shunned before. Let me know what you find out!
