In this song, the artist addresses bisexuality. Specifically, his own. Frank Ocean illustrates this through his lyrics. Thus, the song starts off the with the line, "My guy pretty like a girl". As the song progresses he also states "I see both sides like Chanel". Audiences should definitely pay close attention to the lyrics.]]> 2018-02-20 17:04:49 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/233381144 Planning my song michelle_lin1 https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/236002678 Some social issues I would like to address is empowerment, whether it's about women or mental health; something along that line. The song Chanel by Frank Ocean is most influential in my composition. The genre for my composition is most likely going to be R&B or pop. I will start with constructing my piece with the piano.]]> 2018-02-27 17:00:32 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/236002678 Starting to Compose michelle_lin1 https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/244107425 So far I have composed a section of the first verse. Next I'm gonna compose the next lyrics and maybe begin composing the chorus.]]> 2018-03-20 16:00:07 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/244107425 Continuing to Compose michelle_lin1 https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/246157907 In this composition, I added more lyrics and notes. I also added the chorus and another verse. This new material correlates to my over topic of female empowerment as it continues to talk about strength and unity. In order for my composition to be "Youtube Ready", it should continue to have more parts. Hence, there should be another verse or two. Then, there should also be an outro.]]> 2018-03-26 16:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/246157907 Putting the Pieces Together michelle_lin1 https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/250790266 As I wrapped up the lyrics I decided to repeat the chorus and the first verse. I did this because most pop songs are in this format. (I guess my composition is now in the pop genre.) My piece continues to promote social justice/ social change through the lyrics. In order for my piece to be "finished", I would have to smooth out the intro and the outro. And everything in the middle.]]> 2018-04-11 16:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/250790266 Music Sheet michelle_lin1 https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/251239367 corresponds with post 5]]> 2018-04-12 16:26:09 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/251239367 Finished Composition michelle_lin1 https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/253082129 The title of my composition is If One Day, me and the lyricist, Jesney chose this because the phrase "if one day" is repeated multiple times. Hence, it was only right to make it the title. I composed this piece with the piano and it addresses the idea of women empowerment. This piece represents of generalized topic of women empowerment by talking about strength. When listening to my piece I hope my audience feel the same emotions of empowerment and strength that were put into this composition.]]> 2018-04-18 16:20:02 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/253082129 Music Sheet for Post 6 michelle_lin1 https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/253085589 2018-04-18 16:26:50 UTC https://padlet.com/michelle_lin1/w5aa94kbqpll/wish/253085589
