He is a very big influence on me and my work generally as he is the same age as me and he made a path for himself in the music industry. Being from Australia he made a big name for himself internationally for his songs and his melodic rap style. As it is very difficult to make a buzz in the music industry let alone being from a totally different place apart from the USA, he still did it and made it big by getting recognised by the Artists such as Juice WRLD and his label GRADE A. To summarise how he really influenced me is by showing us how anybody no matter the place, no matter, the country can still get into the music industry if you put the work in.]]> 2023-09-20 08:56:40 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2712447142 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2712459895 My Second influence is J Cole. The way that J Cole influences is through his lyrics and the way he writes his songs. The metaphors, the witty word plays and the double entendres within his lyrics are very high leveled, for example like in the song Johnny P's Caddy he says "Some see the glass as empty, I see a glass full of ether
Collectin' his bread in mass like he a Catholic preacher
Just to count a nigga cash, you might need a calculus teacher
Eureka, Einstein on the brink of the theory of relativity
Really no MC equal, feel me?" but its not just that but also the story telling and the way he delivers those lyrics with so much emotion makes me want to work on my art even more to perfection. Another way that J Cole influenced me is by being so humble and show us how to seperate your work life from your privet life, especially in an industry where everything you do can easily be leaked online.]]> 2023-09-20 09:05:26 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2712459895 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2712475922 My third influence is the K Pop group Stray Kids. The way they influence me is by the way the work as a group each member has their own role within the group unlike some other K Pop group. For example the members Bang chan, Changbin and Han collectively known as 3RACHA are the producer line of the group who are responsible for the production of beats, lyrics and all the production related work. Similarly the members Felix, Hyunjin and Leeknow collectively known as DANCERACHA are responsible for the dances for each song that they release. Unlike other groups Stray Kids also have a unique sound to their music which is dark but at the same time euphoric and upbeat in a weird way.]]> 2023-09-20 09:16:41 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2712475922 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2712556455 2023-09-20 10:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2712556455 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2722747743 Juice WRLD is one of the biggest influence of The Kid Laroi as Juice WRLD mentored him in the early stages of his career. According to The Kid Laroi Juice WRLD influenced him in a lot of ways for example, rather than writing songs in advance like he used to he started to freestyle record his songs or how Juice WRLD taught him how important focusing on some emotions were while making music.]]> 2023-09-27 08:54:46 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2722747743 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2722760805 As Laroi's mom used to play a lot of Erykah Badu when he was growing up he was influenced by her work too especially the R&B aspect as we can directly see it in The Kid Laroi's work by the way he write, sing and performs the chorus of his songs which has the R&B aspect. The great example for this would be his very famous mixtape F*** LOVE where we can see the influence of Erykah Badu throughout the whole album.]]> 2023-09-27 09:05:17 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2722760805 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2722765469 Along side Erykah Badu The Kid Laroi's mother also played fugees in their house as they were growing up, so naturally he was influenced by them as well. We can see the Fugees's influence on The Kid Laroi through the type of beats The Kid Laroi raps on and the way he raps and the kind of emotion they emit. ]]> 2023-09-27 09:09:11 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2722765469 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2731627981 Jay Z is one of the biggest influence in J Cole's career as he mentored J Cole throughout his early stages. He called Jay Z for advices as he looked over J Cole as a mentor and as a brother. You can also hear Jay Z influence on J cole's songs and his production style and his beat choices. ]]> 2023-10-04 07:42:02 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2731627981 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2731674892 J Cole's step father introduced Tupac one of the greatest rapper of all time to J Cole. His step father came home one day with a cd of Tupac's album called 2Pacalypse and J Cole felt an instant connection with Tupac ever since. Although he did not understand what Tupac was saying in his songs he could feel the truth in tupac's rap. ]]> 2023-10-04 08:20:42 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2731674892 1031987_2_2 https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2731680639 J Cole has openly admitted that in his early stages of his career he used to imitate Nas therefore fromm there we can figure out how big impact did Nas have on J cole. ]]> 2023-10-04 08:25:12 UTC https://padlet.com/1031987_2_2/m67q59j0r9waz1ew/wish/2731680639
