BLOG POST BODY PARAGRAPHS: (Broken
into easy to read paragraphs, formatting font to make it easier to follow main
ideas, etc.)
- Briefly
explain why you are interested in studying your topic:
I have been listening to rap and hip hop music for a long time and
I’m really interested in the music and the culture that surrounds it.
- The
overall question I plan on answering by the end of the project:
How has Hip Hop become popular and profitable?
- Sub
questions I will need to answer in order to answer the overall question:
What factors of hip hop and the culture appeal to the general
public?
How has marketing changed the hip hop genre?
How has hip hop changed the world we live in?
What kind of people listen to this genre of music and why do they
like it?
How do new artists break into the industry?
How does the success of hip hop artists compare to artists of
other genres?
How has the genre evolved over time?

plan of research (what specific Library Databases, specific websites,
names of authors, people, etc. will I pursue to find the answers to the
questions above):

Complex magazine, XXL magazine, Noisey, Souncloud

Other rap/hip hop websites
