Rap (Music)

The topic I choose for my essay is Rap (Music).

Research Question: Is Rap Music A Negative Influence On Society? 

Claim: Rap music has positive and negative influences on society. 

Why This Topic: I choose this topic because I feel it is very debatable and more complex than people give it credit for. I also choose this topic because, it is the actual career that I want to pursue and I already know a little bit about the topic.

Audience: I am trying to reach all different type of audiences. Those who like listening rap music, those who don't like listening to rap music. The people who think it is negative as well as the people who think it is positive.
