Fossum!! I DID IT!!
After getting off my lazy butt and doing it; I finally blogged my reasoning for picking the songs I did for the soundtrack of Project X and here it is...
Reasoning For Picking the Songs I Did
1) "Set It Off" - P.O.D
This song was chosen for the soundtrack for two reasons. The first reason is the simple fact that it is Deezie Productions official theme song and the fact that if you listen deep into the song you begin to understand that the song is standing up for yourself as well as what you believe in.
2) "Mosh" – Eminem
This song was chosen for the soundtrack due to the simple fact the it’s a political song that focuses on people ‘moshing’ in support of their beliefs on how crooked the current state of the U.S. government is.
3) "I Can" – Nas
This song was simply chosen due to the fact that it’s Nas using his fame to support a cause he is a big supporter of which is the ‘Save the Music’ foundation.
4) "Scapegoat" – Atmosphere
A very well known indie rapper that in this raps about everything that people use to cover up lies or troubles they have in their lives.
5) "Fight The Power" - Public Enemy
A rather old song back when hip hop/rap was mostly good. Public Enemy uses this anthem to show support for African Americans for the fight for equality back in the late 80s and early 90s.
6) "Capital G" - Nine Inch Nails
Another political song speaking that everyone should blame themselves for the current state of America due to the fact they made the choices they did.
7) "Cowboy in Me" - Tim McGraw
This song was chosen on a whim due to the fact I was sitting on the bus listening to it and thought that it matched perfectly with my personality and the view I have for the beginning of the video.
8) "If Everyone Cared" – Nickelback
As you can see by the video for this song that I put on my blog; I chose this song simply because it portrays people using their right of freedom of speech and/or their voice to make changes in the world
9) "Why We Thugs" - Ice Cube
This song was chosen to cause in this Ice Cube gives the reasoning of violence and gang issues from a street prospective by using his Freedom of speech
10) "Gods Gonna Cut You Down" - Johnny Cash
The reasoning for this song is Johnny Cash is simply one of the most creative minds in music history and his words can shape so many people opinion on different life perspectives.
11) "Changes" - Tupac Shakur
Just like Johnny Cash, Tupac Shakur has the power to create opinions in people’s minds. In this song he asks why there is no changes in the environment that we inhabit today due the fact everything has stayed the same for so long.
12) "Starin through My Rear View" - Tupac Shakur
Another Tupac Shakur song was chosen because in this song he expresses his perspective of what’s going on around him and why it continues
13) "Public Enemy #1" – Eminem
In this song Eminem expresses the things that happened to him as well as other people in the history of Freedom Of Speech due to the words they say.
14) "Boom" - System of Down
This song was simply chose because SOAD uses it to express their freedom of speech on war and how it effects so many.
