Each day I ride the bus while in deep thought with my music. Despite my feelings of the over-crowded, smelly, hot bus system we have at UNT, my music reminds me that this life and figuratively this bus ride is the way to my success. Therefore every morning and afternoon I prepare my headphones and set my mind to persevere despite what I feel is in my way. This is why this is my interpretation of the prompt.

An example of my regular interactions with music. When I listen to my music it motivates me to push through any lazy feelings or thoughts of slowing down. When I hear my music I have to continue to stride toward success. This is why I say this is my interpretation of the prompt, because this is what music means to me.

Now the judge hang us with 100 years, used to hang us by a tree
I was born in the trap tryna stay up out the penitentiary
Cuz living ain't cheap tell me how this the land of the free
(Cuz living ain't cheap how the fuck is this the land of the free)   ~G Herbo

"I got tired of goin' to school
Cause that calculus and algebra
Wouldn't buy my clothes and shoes
Wasn't tryna wait to graduate
Yeah they said I was a fool
Now they screamin' out my name
And they sayin' that I'm the truth
Bitches suckin' on demand
Take second looks like, "Is it you?"
Used to be broke, got off my ass
Got to some cash, wasn't no excuse
Cause where I'm from, you dead broke
Or you just dead
1 of the 2
You better choose before the wrong one choose you
Nigga..."
~G Herbo

Here, the "go and get it" attitude can be felt through the words used if you sit and listen further than merely what you hear.

Hello and welcome all! My Padlet will allow us to quickly explore my musical mind and approach. Starting with my definition of music. Music to me is simply the expression of self through structured sound. When you combine creative thought and critical thinking, music can be produced at levels of beauty. From there, when the right person hears this magical combination of thought and application you plant a seed. This seed of music can be inspiring, thought provoking, and even life saving. Each and everyday we all interact with music. This interaction may be willing or even by accident. For me this a pivotal role of my day to day life. Each day I grab my headphones before I leave. As I walk around campus I absolutely have to listen to my music. Without my music I feel unfulfilled and as if something is missing. Without my loud and verbally aggressive "trap" or "hardcore rap" I feel like the day is much slower and boring. This is why I call "trap" music my music. I resonate with the "go-getter", no excuse attitude that is often displayed through violence and criminal activity. I would hope it's clear I don't participate in those activities. I apply those aggressive, no excuses attitudes to academic success and perseverance in life. Therefore, to me music is an added boost of life to push you through life's occurrences.
