"Jazz Is My Story:" A Historical Analysis of Jazz and twentieth Century African-American Literature
The time span from the Bebop time frame to the present—mid-1940s onwards—has been a period of inconceivable social progression in the United States, and in a few get-togethers more so than the African American social class. A variable particularly basic in this outing, and one with which jazz music has been eagerly tied over the earlier century, is African American composition. This class, even more nonchalantly called dim composition, has quite recently been a legitimate thought since the Harlem Renaissance (from around 1919 to 1939), during which observable dim pioneers attempted to lift dim culture and status by making workmanship, driving political turns of events, and pushing the fight for social freedoms. Anyway, jazz music had at this point thrived in American culture as a convincing music style, it was irrelevantly alluded to in dim composition during this period.

Why I ONLY Listen to Lo-Fi Music & You SHOULD Too!
I fell in love with lo-fi music the second I heard it. It was perfect, almost like if it was created perfectly for me. I work 14-hour days and struggle to concentrate and lo-fi music helps me get SO MUCH done. I can literally work for hours and hours and don’t even realize that I have been sitting in my office chair for such a long time.

My Second Favourite Album: El Dorado by The Electric Light Orchestra
The genesis of the Electric Light Orchestra was a band that would take over from the Beatles at the fade outs to “Strawberry Fields Forever” and ”I Am The Walrus” , both heavy on strings but still steeped in rock. The Beatles had not been scared of orchestral arrangements and “Eleanor Rigby” contained only Paul McCartney on vocals , the music being provided double string quartet arranged by George Martin.

Songs for Spooky Season
I love Halloween. It's my favorite holiday. I always go all out on my costumes, spending hours hot gluing, adding sequins, cutting fabric, you name it. I've dressed as the Bride of Frankenstein, a sparkling fairy princess, Twin Peaks' Laura Palmer, an astronaut, and even beloved icon The Babadook. I once spent 10 hours painting a giant canvas backdrop into a Pentagram design for a witchcraft-themed Halloween party, and I've strung enough spider webs to cover a whole graveyard. So yeah, I invest some time into Halloween y'all. (I can't wait to share what my costume is this year, but that's for a later story!)
