Providing jobs for those who need it most, using the technolog we have today to aid us by investing it for a better future and supporting the lower and middle class aiding them most supporting our citizen of our nation.
2. What are the agreements and disagreements (with Democrats, Republicans, and others) around the Stimulus Package? What are President Obama's counter arguments in this debate? (see both videos)
.The disagreement was based on the fact that the people the package to be something as money wasted on one thing when it could be spent on something else. In response president Barack Obama let the nation know that in order for our nation to rise from the slumps or from the financial low were in we need to take care of the bigger problems and like a chain we will slowly fix our other problems for example we need to help transportation industries come out of bankruptcy before we can help gas company lower the price on gas with out cars where is the point in gas with our cars and planes where is the point in gas.

. Another thing brought up was the fight not only for race and education and the fight between straights and gays but a battle of the sexs a feminine fued in the work place and every where else where women aren't given the same equal rights as men. Another thing is child health care this package will not be perfect but will be invested to help parents who dont have the money to pay for insurance not only for themselves or family but there children will have one less thing to worry bout financial wise.
5. Do you feel that this package will help Afrikan Americans and if so how? Do you feel that racism and/or gender bias will make a difference in the output or results of the package? Explain. (your opinion)
.I feel that this package will greatly effect not only african american alone but people of all ethnical backgrounds citizens or immigrants making life a little more stress free financially in there personal lives and as for gender bias females all around will be more up to showing that men dont always play a major roles in the world and that women like me can just as well perform an easy role in our nation.

My ancestors music
The music that my ancestor Inez Rebecca Little had in her time was jazz.
One of the singers was Bessie Smith. Bessie Smith is known today as a famous blues singer of the 1920’s. She was known as the “Empress of the Blues” during her times and she was one of the most successful female singers of the 1920’s.
In 1923, Bessie Smith went to New York for her first recording. She recorded "Down-Hearted Blues". The song quickly became famous and soon after that, she became the highest paid African-American entertainer in America. Her songs were famous because she sang about the experiences of an African-American person living in America. She described their feelings like suffering, or joy.
Bessie Smith not only attracted African-American audiences, but she also attracted white audiences. In 1929, she starred in a movie, "St. Louis Blues". By this time, the blues were becoming less popular and jazz was becoming more popular. Bessie Smith changed from a blues singer to a jazz singer so that she would remain popular. She was still popular after her change in music, but not as popular as before.

Negative song
The song that I picked is Hypnotized by Biggie Smalls.....
Uhhh, uhhh, uh, cmon
Verse one:
Hah, sicka than your average poppa Twist cabbage off instinct ni**az dont think sh*t stink Pink gators, my detroit players Timbs for my hooligans in brooklyn Dead right, if they head right, biggie there air nike Poppa been smooth since days of underroos Never lose, never choose to, bruise crews whoDo something to us, talk go through us Girls walk to us, wanna do us, sc**w us Who us? yeah, poppa and puff (ehehehe)Close like starsky and hutch, stick the clutchDare I squeeze three at your cherry m-3(take that, take that, take that, haha!)Bang every mc easily, busilyRecently ni**az frontin aint sayin nuttin (nope)So I just speak my piece, (cmon) keep my pieceCubans with the jesus piece (thank you God), with my peepsPackin, askin w askin who want it, you got it ni**aChorus: sung in imitation of part of slick ricks la-di-da-di
Biggie biggie biggie cant you see Sometimes your words just hypnotize me And I just love your flashy ways Guess thats why they broke, and youre so paid (uh)
Biggie biggie biggie (uh-huh) cant you see (uh)Sometimes your words just hypnotize me (hypnotize)And I just love your flashy ways (uh-huh)Guess thats why they broke, and youre so paid...........
My anaylsis on hypnotized is that he is talking about him having money while other people are broke and don't have anything because they downing him and how he is special and he has alot of money and he is very fashionable while others are hating on him and what he has while some girls are likeing him for his money. I think that he is using a lot of profanity in this song because he is expressing the way he feels and what he has in his life that he has worked hard for.

Positive Song:
The song title is "Hip hop saved my life" by lupe fiasco
Lupe speaking]
Dedicate dedicate
Uh this one right here goes out
To my homie with the dream
Naw-mean
He said I right what I see
Write to make it right
Don't like where I be
I like to make it like
The sights on TV
Quite the great life
So nice and easy
See now you can still die from that
But it's better than not being alive from straps
Agreed
A mead notebook and a bic that click
When it's pushed and a wack beat
That's a track that's weak
That he got last week
Cuz everybody in the store?
Was like that's that heat
A bass heavy medley with a sample from the 70s
With a screwed up hook that went
STACK THAT CHEESE
Somethin' somethin' somethin'
STACK THAT CHEESE
Mother sister cousin
STACK THAT CHEESE
He couldn't think of nothin'
STACK THAT CHEESE
He turns down the beat writers block impedes
Crying from the next room a baby in need
Of some pampers and some food and a place to sleep
That, plus a black cadillac on D's
Is what keep him on track to be a great MC
[Chorus: Nikki Jean]
One you never heard of
I push it hard to further the
Grind life feel like murder but
Hip Hop you saved me
One you never heard of
I push it hard to further the
Grind life feel like murder but
Hip Hop you saved my life
Reps Northside so he rocks them braids
Eleven hundred friends on his MySpace page
Stack that cheese got seven hundred plays
Producer made him take it down
Said he had to pay
Open mic champ 2 weeks in a row
Ex dboy with a bboy flow
Glow like leroy you should see boy go
Got a daddy servin life and a brother on The Row
Best homie in the grave
Tatted up while in the cage
Minutemaid got his momma work like a slave
Down baby momma who he really had to honor
Cuz she was his biggest fan
Even let him use her Honda to
Drive up to dallas went to open up for amateurs
Let him keep her debit card
So he could put gas in it
Told her when he get on
He gon take her to the galleria and
Buy up everything but the mannequins ya dig
[Chorus: Nikki Jean]
One you never heard of
I push it hard to further the
Grind life feel like murder but
Hip Hop you saved me
One you never heard of
I push it hard to further the
Grind life feel like murder but
Hip Hop you saved my life
His man called said "your time might be now"
They played your freestyle over "Wipe me down"
They played it two times
Said it might be crowned
As the best thing out the H-TOWN in a while
He picked up his son with a great big smile
Rapped every single word to the newborn child
Then he put em down and went back to the kitchen
Put on another beat and got back to the mission
Of get his momma out the hood
Put her somewhere in the woods
Keep his lady lookin good
Have her rolling like she should
Show his homies it's a way
Other than that flippin Yay
Bail his homie outta jail
Put a lawyer on his case
Throw a council for the school
Show them that it's really cool
Throw some candy on the cadi
Chuck the deuce and act a fool
Man it feels good when it happens like that
Two days from goin back from sellin' crack... yessir
[Chorus: Nikki Jean]
One you never heard of
I push it hard to further the
Grind life feel like murder but
Hip Hop you saved me
One you never heard of
I push it hard to further the
Grind life feel like murder but
Hip Hop you saved my life
[Repeat 3x]
Hip Hop you saved my life [2X]
My analysis for this song is that this song has no profanity and that he is telling how hip hop saved his life and that he stopped selling crack because of the hip hop and vibes from the hip hop songs that he heard. Also he is talking about things that happen in every day life and what goes on around him and how he dosen't do that anymore and hip hop made him stop.
