SLIDE 1: What is rap and hip-hop genre? How can it be classified? What associations does it have with sub-culture?

SLIDE 2: How has rap music evolved? Are there any historical implications to this? How has representation changed? Include specific examples.

SLIDE 3: An analysis of the front cover of RIP IT UP magazine with a picture of a rap artist. You analysis can be similar to the examples given to you in class but it can also be different. You could try summarising your analysis next to the image for example. Ensure that through this process you are using key media theorists and key media terminology.

SLIDE 4: An analysis of another rap/hip-hop media text of your choice. Album cover, music video, concert poster, etc. As before, use key media terminology and theorists to analyse.

SLIDE 5/6: An analysis of two news stories (visual or text based) on rap and hip-hop music artists, events, etc.

SLIDE 6: A short conclusion which summarises your findings and answers the question posed to you in class. What have you discovered from this?
