Analysing and comparing 2pac- 'letter to my unborn child' and Nas featuring R.Kelly -'Did u ever fink'

Coursework – The Media Assignment

Introduction

There are many different media texts and are showed in many different ways such as Television: - Sound, words, pictures, movie clips. Newspaper: - pictures, detailed sentences (attract the readers attention) sub headings (catch eye of readers). Flyers: - little advertisements (inform people about up coming events e.g. discos, parties trips and events) written in very brief detail. Radio: - Sound and detailed information that you could only listen to the purpose of this is to tell people about the world but it is told very very brief and quick. So the audience would like it that means that media texts are made for audiences just to be herd and sometimes to entertain and also make money to improve on their styles and the way they have explained things like the flyers just say there’s a party its just advertising to make money and to entertain people by being published and being advertised how do you think people know that there’s something new by media text like on the radio, billboards, flyers and leaflets its all being advertised by media text and then made money out of people who co operate with the things there have seen.

I think that media text and songs are just there as a bait for people to fall for and spend money so that the people behind this is just out there to make their money both of them (media text and songs) are aimed for the same audiences.

Development

The songs that I am analysing and comparing are: - 2pac- ‘letter to my unborn child’ and Nas featuring R.Kelly –‘Did u ever fink’ - Both songs are rap songs and I am going to start off with 2pac’s- ‘letter to my unborn child’. 2pac has tragically died but he has done this song in the form of reading a letter; he has put a good beat to the song, which repeats with a rhythm. He opens the first stanza with the chorus, which is repeated through the song several times. He sings it with emotional ...
