He feels the need to be independent, but it keeps slipping away from him. He ends up finally being in the wild and fending for himself as he tries to survive on his own without the help of his parents or society. All he had left was himself, and nature, to rely on, to keep himself alive. He wanted a way to make sure that he couldn't gain support through anything else other than himself and his efforts. He had been helped all his life by his parents and family throughout his education and needed a way out of it. This journey was created by the need and want for independence in his life. ]]> 2023-04-21 02:42:26 UTC https://padlet.com/aphe1660/ow2hq663qyrt67v8/wish/2562684443 aphe1660 https://padlet.com/aphe1660/ow2hq663qyrt67v8/wish/2563426843 Throughout this song, Drake talks about how he "started from the bottom" and now he's one of the top artists. He raps about the past and his life before fame, living with his mom and working all the time to selling out shows in stadiums. "A man is relieved and gay when he has put his heart into his work and done his best" This quote from the essay relates to Drake's line when he says "Workin' all night, traffic on the way home And my uncle callin' me like, "Where ya at?... Now I'm on the road, half a million for a show". This shows the parallelism in how much he had to work to get to his success and now he gets to enjoy all the hard work put out. ]]> 2023-04-21 16:14:23 UTC https://padlet.com/aphe1660/ow2hq663qyrt67v8/wish/2563426843 aphe1660 https://padlet.com/aphe1660/ow2hq663qyrt67v8/wish/2563448815 Kanye West has contributed greatly to society and still does today. He has a popular fashion line and amazing music, but his beliefs and morals are questionable at times. Like many influencers, his actions are closely watched and everything he says can be twisted and seen in different ways. Although this may seem like the case, he is just a human being who makes mistakes and shouldn't be cancelled or hated for it. Kanye West grew up just like many of us, in a middle class status where he went to public schools and experienced many similar things like us. He may seem like a bad guy, but the things that he creates is art and his words are possibly twisted by many. He is just a man who is trying to enjoy the fame and popularity that he built himself. In the end of his essay, the writer states "To be great is to be misunderstood". Kanye doesn't let anyone determine what his actions are except for himself and his beliefs, and doing that he has gotten very far in life and is very successful. ]]> 2023-04-21 16:36:43 UTC https://padlet.com/aphe1660/ow2hq663qyrt67v8/wish/2563448815 aphe1660 https://padlet.com/aphe1660/ow2hq663qyrt67v8/wish/2563763022 "Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string." This picture is a harp with a heart attached to it. This symbolizes the quote because the strings are connected to the heart and whatever string is plucked, a beautiful sound/outcome will be produced. Just as making decisions from the heart and trusting what you do, a beautiful outcome will occur and you won't regret your decisions. ]]> 2023-04-22 02:22:33 UTC https://padlet.com/aphe1660/ow2hq663qyrt67v8/wish/2563763022
