Abstract

The contents of the project are a reflection paper titled “A Musician's Evolution”, an album titled The N.O.C. Project” and two dvds. One is a documentary titled When Papa Lost the Pimps” and a music video titled Rancid Reality”. In the paper the author writes out the lyrics of eight songs, out of the sixteen songs in the album, in order for the reader to analyze them. I chose these songs because I feel that they best represent the goals of my project. They reach a wide variety of emotions and situations. The author credits the understanding of music and culture for being the inspiration for their project. Additionally, the author wished to compose Socially conscious” music that would reflect his past four years of education and experiences. Furthermore, the author discusses their exposure to music as well as the historical origins to certain music genres.
