Choose the video of EITHER Riz MC or MIA then respond to the following. 1) Explain the argument made. Be specific. 2) Whom is the audience addressed? Respond to what you heard and saw in the video to find some “evidence” for this. Are you part of the target audience? What does the video make you think about? How does it make you feel? 3) Discuss why you think the rhetorician used this method – a music video – for her/his argument. How effective is it in terms of reaching the target audience? Does the use of humor cloud the argument? Make it stronger?
For this week, feel free to provide a link to a video from your favorite musician or band. Post a few sentences about the point of view of this artist and WHY she/he/they appeal to you. What is their major argument?
