My best friend (a straight black male) listens to Taylor Swift. I agree with the first answer. Music has no color.
And just because Beyonce sells records doesn't mean she's any more talented than anyone else. In my opinion, the only artist who has sold millions and millions of records and truly deserved and earned the credit was Michael Jackson. Not only was he an extremely talented musician and dancer but he could entertain as well.
He kept the crowd on the edge of their seat. He was original and that isn't exactly what you find now in the music business. Beyonce doesn't write her own songs unlike (regardless of what you think, it's known that her dad who is also her manager pays songwriters so that Beyonce has writing credits) Lady Gaga who on the other hand is actually talented as is Alicia Keys.
But out of all of them (in my opinion) Lady Gaga is the most talented artist. She can sing, plays an actual instrument and writes her own songs. But I listen to Lady Gaga, Alicia Keys and Taylor Swift.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
