This is a valid claim in modern rap music. Of course not all, but a lot of the popular music today is centered around sex, drugs, and violence. Still, people listen to the music without much regard to what the rapper is saying.

This was an interesting point that the author makes. It definitely makes sense, but I had never really thought of it that way. Some songs that hold absolutely no artist value can become a social rage just by how catchy the tune of the song is. It seems like this article is making the claim that this phenomenon is a bad thing- but is it? On hat grounds is music good? Is it based off the time and effort it took to create it, or is it based off of it's success?

I thought this was an interesting claim to make, it definitely holds some truth. It seems like cultural appropriation happens a lot in today's society; not just in forms of songs but even in movies, tv shows, or even mascots.

I think Wordsworth is attempting to say that despite most poets centering their poems around the subject, there are more important aspects within the poem than the sake of the subject.

TS- he is saying hat most writing in this time seems to be centered around some sort of extraordinary event because daily life has become so uniform.

He is asserting that poems do not necessarily have to be centered around something any more than mundane interactions. He doesn't believe that this phenomenon of uniformity should be reflected within writing.
