Catherine King Topic Decision What topic have you settled on, and why? For what audience(s) and purpose(s) might you design this project? What sources might you draw on? What genres might you use to represent your work? Post your responses on a new page linked to your personal page. The topic I have settled on is Lil’ Wayne. I chose this topic because I think he is a very fascinating individual and his story and his life have been long intriguing many. I also chose Lil’ Wayne because I will be able to incorporate Hurricane Katrina into the project, which was the other topic I was considering. The audience that this project will be directed towards will be my peers because they, above anyone else know what the trending topics in pop culture today are. The purpose will be to inform the audience about the life of Lil’ Wayne as well as explore his claim of being the best rapper in the world, by looking at the impact he has made. I will be using a lot of media in my project because that is how Lil’ Wayne projects himself, through the media. Interviews, social networking sites, song lyrics, and articles are a few sources and different ways information could be represented.
