Media ethics assignment

He had gained a crossover audience due to the song which saw black audiences attending his concerts and his song I’m black and I’m proud became a civil rights anthem. LYRICS: Say it loud: I’m black and I’m proud! Some people say we’ve got a lot of malice Some say it’s a lot of nerve But I say we wont quit moving until we get what we deserve We have been bucked and we have been scorned We have been treated bad, talked about as Just bones But Just as it takes two eyes to make a pair, ha Brother we can’t quit until we get our share One more time!

I worked on Jobs with my feet and my hand But all the work I did was for the other man Now we demand a chance to do things for ourselves We’re tired of beating’ our head against the wall And working’ for someone else Say it loud: I’m black and I’m proud We’re people, we’re Just like the birds and the bees We’d rather die on our feet Than be living’ on our knees Rap groups such as NNW and Public enemy used music to get attention towards issues such as race, politics and poverty. In majority of rap songs lyrics most commonly mention not being treated equally, ethnic differences and hate and pain are discussed.

Public Enemy are a main example of African American musicians challenging authority. They are known for their politic issues lyrics and outspoken on politics through their music They approach the situation calmly by raising real issues such as poverty and racism, rather than using swears words and controversial language. They question real issues, situations and not afraid to say what they believe in through their music. They show criticism of the American media and law which criticisms Black Americans and see them in a racial way. Their lyrics and songs question the frustrations and concerns of the African American communities across the country.

In the early ages of Public Enemy they produced album ‘ It takes a nation of millions to hold us’ and with this album came songs that question issues and concerns of African Americans, such as ‘ Caught, Can We Get A Witness? Which questions real life situations and regarding how black people are treated for crimes and in the lyrics “ Now, what in the heaven does a Jury know about hell” “ Understand where we’re going”, are asking white Americans and Judges politicians what black Americans are going through and feeling. Through their songs they make a statement to show what African Americans are going through and how the unfair treatment they get, they mention real life events and show the audiences this is what is happening. They claim that White audiences have no idea what black audiences live with.

Public enemy’s political song ‘ Party for the right to fight’ which is an example of politic issues on Black African Americans and discussed Malcolm X and Martin Luther King assassination and government cover ups, and racist’s to keep black Americans quiet. Public Enemy questioned and spoke about issues which were aimed at the American overspent, the plot of killing black leaders was done by Whites and the ‘ so called government’. In the lyrics American Black leaders (Malcolm X) Elijah Muhammad and Martin Luther King are mentioned and honored. Public Enemy are inspired by Black leaders and use their music to spread issues and harsh and racial events occurring within Black communities in America. These questions are raised and politics and audiences from around the world have become aware of what is happening.
