A Stroll Through My iPod
Jada Young, Historian
What would I do without my iPod? It keeps me in my own personal zone while walking to class; it works as my own personal force-field when I don’t want to sit near anyone while at Hasbrouck and it lets me bask in my amazing musical taste. So I want to introduce you guys to the wonder that is my iPod. My baby is an 8 Gig, touch-screen iPod, when you look at it, you might think it’s just like any other iPod in the world, but mine is special: by virtue of it beingmine! Even though the time now is 11:50pm, my iPod claims that it is currently 8:59pm. I’m just too lazy to fix the time. It’s been that way for a few weeks now. Going through the “Artists” section, I have everyone from Aerosmith to Bette Midler, to Kanye West, to Lauryn Hill, to Willow Smith.
I would consider myself to have very eclectic taste in music. But, my iPod is not only limited to music, as it were. My baby also contains John Lennon interviews as well as Malcolm X, Winston Churchill, Mother Theresa, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. speeches. It also contains slam poetry from a very amazing, talented, Joshua Brandon Bennett. I won’t sit here and lie and make it seem as if everything in my iPod is socially conscious, because it definitely is not. One of the most played music files on both my iPod and my iTunes is “Stu’s Song” from The
Hangover. I’m also a Nicki Minaj, Drake and Beyonce glutton. Sometimes after all the thinking that I have to do as a college student and as a human being, the excess thoughts need to be neutralized by some booty shaking, sexually explicit music.
