Music and The Corona Virus Pandemic. Chopped and screwed chopped and screwed is a style of remixing of hip-hop music through the slowing of the tempo, created by DJ Screw in the 1990s. Also known as slowed and thrown, chopped and screwed was developed in the Houston hip-hop scene. Chopped and screwed music is achieved by lowering the tempo to 60 quarter notes beats per minute. The making of this music style also involves applying music mixing techniques such as record scratching, beat skipping, and other sound effects. On the other hand, slowed and reverb is for sure a deracination of the chopped and screwed music. Slowed and reverb has gained popularity among white teens who offer credit to an artist known as Slater. This trend has not gone well with the Houstonians who feel their original art has been plagiarised. Yes, the comedian is right, a white man is trying to get credit for a Blackmans job. Coronavirus pandemic The music industry has been adversely affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Music is a broad sector, and apart from the…

I want to tell some of the stories that at a very young age while growing up, my mother told me that I began reading while I was at the age of two years. However, I find two quite early for me, and I would probably tell that I began reading at four.

Based on my impression, people might perceive me as an African; I could not speak good English. An example is when my roommate’s perception did not align with how I see myself. It was when I was 19 years of…
Corporal Punishment in Colleges Students Name Institutional Affiliation Course Code Instructor Date Corporal Punishment in Colleges Corporal punishment is an act by a guardian, a parent, or a person of authority to inflict physical bodily pain without causing injury to correct behavior. This practice’s exercise exists predominantly in some societies as an accepted form of correcting behavior even though it has attracted criticism and backlash from human rights activists and reformists. This paper seeks to justify reasons not to have corporal punishment in colleges.
