Topic 1: Kendrick Lamar DNA lyrics
This is my top pick. Kendrick Lamar’s DNA lyrics are dense and full of hidden messages and metaphors. It’s pro’s is that it can be related to many major issues in the present day and can many different lenses can be used. For instance, a fox news clip is played during this song. A con that comes with choosing this would probably be how I would structure my paper to get to at least six pages.
Topic 2: Get Out (movie)
This movie is famous for being the highest rated movie of its year. It’s full of commentary regarding race and religion that’s put in a horror genre film. It’s pro’s would be that it’s got plenty of metaphors and deeper messages that ties into our history as a nation and present-day events. For instance, there is a scene involving picking cotton which parallels slavery.
Topic 3: A Quiet Place (Movie):
This movie is a horror/thriller film that’s mainly focused on the noises made in the film. This causes the visuals in the movie to hold more importance and messages than a regular movie would necessarily. The main message of this movie is about family. This makes it easy to relate to many people and gives an extra lens to view this movie. A con is that there probably aren’t many lenses that can be used for this movie that I can think of.
