Advertising, as it is known today, took its start during the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. A rapid increase in the manufacturing output enforced advertisers to find new methods of selling on such a large, previously inexistent scale, most of which are still found in today’s advertisements. At all times, the role of women in advertising has been indispensable; however, their portrayal had never been the same. Until the-near end of 20th century, it had been changing from one decade to another
Collaboration projects are a new trend that I can say I'm not a fan of. While some say that artists are being lazy, I just don't care about a lot of the combinations we receive. I never wanted a Future and Drake project. While I like Travi$ Scott and Quavo as individuals, I really don't need an entire project between the two. At one point in time I actually believed we were getting close to a J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar project but you know how rappers are. Fans have been wanting a a Chance the Rapper
Have you ever watched a movie or a tv show, or even read a book, in which any character has two different sides? It was probably..., the good one and the evil one? And those sides are always opposites… Right? If this plot is not a strange thing to you, have you ever thought why is this idea/theme so present in many ways inside the pop culture? In 1886 the book "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde", written by Robert Louis Stevenson, was released and became one of the most popular Stevenson's
Kanye West’s album 808s & Heartbreak, changed the way rap music is created today. For example, it changed the way that artists sample music, the types of rhythm and beats used, and introduced the widespread use of autotune. 808s &Heartbreak was the fourth studio album by American rapper Kanye West. It was released by Def Jam Recordings and Roc-A- Fella Records on November 24, 2008, having been recorded earlier that year in September and October at Glenwood Studios in Burbank, California and Avex
808s and Heartbreak and Its Undeniable Influence Kanye West remains one of the most successful and influential rappers of all time, amassing a fanbase of hundreds of millions of people. But while Kanye has a boatload of success, he also has just as much, if not more, controversy. The root cause of his modern influence, personality, and controversy can be traced back to the 1980s and Heartbreak era of his music, which was Kanye’s fourth studio album released on November 24th, 2008. Other artists took
[Travis Scott], Drake. I’ma go ahead and say it — with all love — Future and [Young Thug] also ‘cause of the Auto-Tune album,” West claimed. “They added what it was to it. I honestly do agree with what West says here. Without the creation of 808s & Heartbreak, I would have to say that almost all the rappers West mentioned would not be the same today. Trapp also mentions Drake, with him saying to MTV in 2009 that before I ever got the chance to meet him, Kanye West shaped a lot of what I do, as far

album as many people either strongly love or hate it, it has made an impact on today’s artist. And still impacts artist today. This album showed that it is okay to wear your heart on your sleeve.

Kanye West is our Elvis Presley. Much like how Elvis altered and spread rock n’ roll, Kanye West has laid the foundation for modern hip-hop. When I say Kanye West, you think of narcissism and ego and god-complex. You think of him taking to the stage to say that George Bush “doesn’t care about black people” at a Hurricane Katrina relief broadcast. You think of the 2009 VMA’s where he famously interrupted Taylor Swift. You think of incoherent, angry, controversial Tweets. You think of a crazed and
sound like vocals, but it’s important because the orbit here is still around the voice, Even more so on 808’s and Heartbreaks. Kanye doesn’t have a great voice, he’ll admit that, yet he sings in almost every single song on 808’s. Sometimes he’ll even sing the entire song, of course with the help of auto-tune. He does this especially on the opening track Say You Will with how that booming 808 drum alternates between the left and right ear while synthy vocals fill the space like a

In the coming years, West would release Graduation (2007) and 808s and Heartbreak (2008). 808s and Heartbreak in particular would be viewed as a very strange move by West, taking the use of autotune and the TR-808 drum machine to a new level. This album’s theme was very different than others, deciding to talk about “…love, loss, and loneliness and very little rapping” (“Kanye West”). Later
