Number 3 (Creation): This Girl is . . .

Ahsanek Samoht

This Girl is…

A girl who, accepts people for who they are

A girl who, at times let people get the best of her

A girl who, tends to let her feelings get in the way of things

A girl who, just want someone to love and care for

A girl who, cannot see herself with a future, that holds family and kids

A girl who, just want to be happy 76.3% of the time                

  
A girl who, has always dedicated time to help those she cared about

A girl who, just want to be alone because of all the things that happened to her in life.

A girl who, is very sensitive, as in cry over every little thing

A girl who, give her all and in the end get back nothing but pain 

A girl that just want people to love her for who she is

and that girl is  Ahsanek Samoht.

Number 2 (Creation): Untitled

In this world, many people dislike each other.
Millions and millions of people don't get along.
People won't try to  understand one another.
Think about it, why are we born?

A few people understand the word hate.
But me, I don't understand it at all.
Maybe others understand it in another state.
Alright, let me be honest, I understand it a little bit.

People won't ever try to work things out.
They just argue over foolish stuff.
They get mad and quick to punch and shout.
But at the end of the day, that's not enough

Lets, work things out and get along.
And always remember, its okay to be wrong.

Number 1 (Creation): Your Time

K-E-Y-N-A-Y

I said don’t waste time, if you procrastinate you might lose your mind

and cause all types of mischief's  and do jail time for a crime

 be in a prison cell for a crime

we be on different cross roads

I'm living the big dream I’m in college so I‘m fine

Listen, this is my fate, this is me,

food for thought grab a plate 

If you don't go get lost

See the world from my eyes

Instead of living these fine lies

Time is a very precious thing

its whats keep me sane

Time is something you don't want to lose

but is something that we indeed get to choose

Time is always on our side

It’s our job to conquer it

Ever look to see how fast time goes

Hmmm that’s some issh

You see the time, it waits for no man

That’s a motivation in life to go ham

Choose your time wisely and trust me you be fine see, just look at me

(HOOK)

I hope if you got anything from this

remember time is precious

Don’t waste your time, but use your time

Your time, your time, your  tim-ee-I-ee-I

Your time, your time your tim-ee-I-ee-I

Just think about it, word

YOU AIN'T NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME

YOU AIN'T NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME

Just think about it, word

YOU AIN'T NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME

YOU AIN'T NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME

Oh stop fronting

YOU AIN'T NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME

YOU AIN'T NEVER WASTE YOUR TIME

that's the thing I don’t do, use my time up and have nothing to look back on to.

We're Not Role Models

The Hip Hop Wars

We’re Not Role Models

            In this chapter, Tricia Rose talks about how rappers in the hip hop industry are looked upon as role models, when in reality they are not trying to be a role model to young people, however, they are trying to tell a story of their life through hip hop. People have too many expectations for these rappers and not actually really thinking deeper in to the situation as in why they are doing the things they do. At the end of the day it is not to be look at as a role model either.

            To begin with, Tricia Rose talks about how people look at rappers today as being role models, when really when they produce their music that are not trying to have people look up to them, they are just telling their story. In the book, Webbie a rapper mention that when he make his music he is only worrying about making that money and supporting his kids and he can care less what anyone else thinks. I strongly agree with him because most rappers are just rapping just to put a roof over their head and support their family. When they are in the studio, they rarely ever think about what they are saying will influence other people put there. They just do what they do for mainly one thing, make that money.

            In addition, Tricia Rose also talks about how parents are responsible for their own children. At the end of the day I totally agree what she is saying. A parent is always in control of their child from day one. Rose talks about how these parents who are not incontrol of their children wants help from these artist becuace they are the ones their children are watching and following their footsteps. I understand why parents look up at these rappers as role models and its because they are unable to control to children anymore and they notice thsier children following after these rappers. These parents just want the rappers to set a good lead because now children are looking up to them. However, when these rappers do something that the parents don’t like it is definitely not their fault because at the end of they day, they are doing what they are doing to support themselves and their family, not to guide the young children that look up to them.

            In the end, these rappers are not these children role models and parents should not have to right to blame the artists for the behavior they their children are performing. You are the parent and you have control over your child, and if at any point that you lose that control and they turn to hip hop as being a parent figure they never had, you cannot judge hip hop for their doings you may consider wrong because you child is looking up to  them. These rappers do not make music to be a role model for young kids, but instead inform them about how they grew up and  make the money they need to support their families. If one does not like what is playing on the radio or the television, just simply turn it off. However, just turning it off will not stop children from being curious. They would find another way to watch and listen to the things they want to listen to.
