Keanu Reeves may live one of the most simplified and normal lives of any famous person. In an interview in 2013 he says ""Money is the last thing I think about. I could live on what I have already made for the next few centuries.”  He also donated $35 million of his own money to the special effects team of the movie The Matrix, because he felt that they deserved more reward for the work they did. In many cases if you see a famous person you freak out and have to get a picture or tweet but if you happen to see Keanu Reeves on the subway on your way home from work its a normal everyday occurrence . He is caught frequently using subways, buses or a moped to get around the city as seen in the picture. He also frequently eats out fast food or drive through Chinese.  In conclusion by Henry David Thoreau He says "Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed and in such desperate enterprises?" Maybe this is how Keanu thinks why would I try so hard to impress people with money or all these cars when I can just live my life with the things I can easily obtain and not go out of my way for.

Steve jobs may of been the most innovative person of the late 90's to early 2000's. He started apple computers in 70's and from there on kept inventing new things. He followed his intuition and his gut feelings that one day apple will be mainstream. Some of the most famous examples may be the Ipod, Iphone or Ipad. The Ipod came out in 2001 following with the Iphone in 2007 and the Ipad in 2010. Of course many people in 2001 thinking reasonably thought there no one someone can make a touch screen device capable of playing music and all these crazy things. Of course Steve Jobs being the Trail Blazer he was decided to do it anyways. This is true in "Conclusion" by Henry Thoreau, He says "I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours." I think he is saying if you do things in confidence you will eventually succeed. Steve jobs didn't let all the news outlets and people saying he cant do things stop him. Apple is now one of the most popular and mainstream companies around.

Michael Jackson may of been the most influencing person of his time and a great pop artist to. When he released his song "The Earth Song" In 1995 He speaks about how we need to keep the fields and nature alive and are we really listening to the earth and how it reacts or are we just cutting things down for our own benefit. " Did you ever stop to notice All the blood we've shed before. Did you ever stop to notice. This crying Earth, these weeping shores What have we done to the world, Look what we've done"  Emerson said is his writing nature "Neither does the wisest man extort her secret, and lose his curiosity by finding out all her perfection. Nature never became a toy to a wise spirit." Maybe Jackson is trying to say as we are not as wise as we once were with the world as they were in Emerson's time because the world wouldn't be weeping if we were wise with it.

Nav is a very self reliant person as he stats in his song Myself in February of 2017. In this verse by rapper nav he is talking about growing up and struggling and his teachers not helping or believing in him. He is also showing how he now is successful and spends his money on his diamonds and likes to live large.
"I remember being a kid my teachers told me I wouldn't be s*** Diamonds in my pinky, look like water, make me seasick Never had no help so don't approach me on some free sh** Did this by myself so why the f*** would I do a remix?"
This relates to Emerson's work Self Reliance when Emerson says "A man is relieved and gay when he has put his heart into his work and done his best" Nav feels as if he has done his best giving his starting point in life he made it and is relieved he has all these diamonds and can provide for his family so why would he restart?

Kendrick Lamar didn't conform to the normal ways of rappers on his DAMN album in the song HUMBLE released in 2017. Many rappers talk about all these extravagant lives and all these perfect women but Kendrick talks about showing the real in people. His lyrics read "I'm so fu****' sick and tired of the Photoshop, Show me somethin' natural like afro on Richard Pryor, Show me somethin' natural like *ss with some stretch marks" This goes against the so called grain of todays pop culture and Kendrick got praised from many people for his work. This Relates to Ralph Emerson's work "Nature" when he writes "the remembrance of the city of God which had been shown! But every night come out these envoys of beauty, and light the universe with their admonishing smile." I feel as if this relates to Kendrick's work because we get so lost up into the city but at night the true beauty of people come out. As he is saying dont get lost up in the photoshop but try to see the true beauty in people.
