Hip Hop 1000

Abstract

Writing happens in a number of different forms. Student Kendall Dumas composed this original hip hop piece in order to reflect on his experiences in English 1000. This composition is a multimodal performance that builds on the rhetorical theory taught in English 1000. Kendall's musical text puts Aristotle's theory into practice by using all the available means of persuasion (including beat, bass, and voice).
