The Influence Of Taylor Swift's Apple Music
It would be an understatement to say, Taylor Swift, a superstar, music mogul and legend runs the music industry. As a 25-year-old singer and songwriter, Swift has accomplished more than most musicians do in their lifetime. Throughout her career Swift has accumulated a wide variety of musical awards, including, 10 Grammys and even being the first woman to ever win the Grammy for album of the year. It is for these reasons that when Swift felt poorly compensated by Spotify for her work being streamed she was “swift” to pull out. However, Apple Music on the other hand, was certain to play by Swift’s rules, as they understand the privilege that her high status and influential presence brings to their platform.

Moreover, despite Swifts $250 million

    Authoritative people have enough power that they can change their viewers minds about almost anything, from who's a nice person to maybe even who they should vote for. Over time, Drake has used his high musical platform to teach lessons in life, “My only wish is I die real cause the truth hurts and those lies heal.” Clearly, Drake's been through alot in life and had to make tough decisions. Some of his verses really go to heart, and makes many listeners more humble, which shows the positive effect Drake has on people. Paradoxically, Kanye West had both positive and negative effects on people with his cocky attitude, “I'm my favorite rapper.” That quote shows how overconfident he is, although being valiant it is a good thing, too much confidence isn't good, it repels people other than grasping their…

    The connection between politics and music can sometimes be rather discreet, and a lot of songwriters today include many messages in their song lyrics which would appear subliminal until analysed. Political issues are expressed in music and I believe this is because music is one of the most effective ways to reach out to people, as not everyone watches the news or picks up a newspaper. Because popular musicians have such a large fan base and a strong influential impact on their fans, it would work effectively to openly promote and support political candidates as well as particular causes, or write their music in order to rebel against them. A great example of this is the song 'if I was president' by Wycliffe jean, this song was inspired by conspiracy theory, because it was believed that unnecessary amounts of money has been spent on the war and the president just sits back and looks at what is happening, Wycliffe believes that every time somebody comes along to try and present the truth, they'd be ‘assassinated’. He wrote this song and put himself in the president's position, believing that he himself would be assassinated the same as martin Luther King and John F Kennedy did. Wycliffe believes that the 'children' should be told the truth, and everyone should strive to be the president. In 2008, will I am produced two video's which were made in order to make America support the work of Barrack Obama. The song 'we are the ones' features people from different walks of life explaining what they would like to change about the earth. One example is 'I think it's time to change, I want a better future for my children' after each person gives an opinion. All of the people featured in the video recite Obama's name. This video and the video 'yes we can' became very popular with over 28 million views between them. ‘Will.i.am didn't set out to make history. In fact, says the Black Eyed Peas front man, he's not even…
