The story was very long but covered such a small topic . It feels like the story of many New Yorkers that probably what happen to me when i was younger i moved around alot until my parents were financially stable and well off .

When the author spoke about not believing in tv’s that impacted me on a personal level because in high school my senior year i was hospitalized for depression and sent to mental hospital but , that isn’t even half the story.When i was in the hospital there was a creepy guy that was scared of tvs and other electronics and it always through me off . Still to this day i think of what could set that type of phobia into somebody . “What must it be like to be so ignorant and alone?” What would make someone that scared of tvs and its small variety of possibilities. I thought it could be the movie “the ring” where the monster comes out of the screen but i’ll never know.

The story didn’t challenge my thoughts as much i feel it should’ve it definitely opened my minds to the different ways people see things. I try to be as opened minded as possible and hear other ideas, thoughts, choices. Everyone is entitled to your their opinion so it doesn’t affected mine. Unlike mr tomkey “Word spread that Mr. Tomkey did not own a television, and you began hearing that while this was all very well and good, it was unfair of him to inflict his beliefs upon others, specifically his innocent wife and children” where if he doesn’t believe in tv no one in his family can believe in it.

I liked that i can relate to the story and that i know what he’s talking about . I gives the story alittle more interest and connection. It makes for a better story to read when you can understand the author on a different level .

In my opinion , I didn’t enjoy it as a work of art it was just story i’ve read before with a different other and a slightly different context .”Word spread that Mr. Tomkey did not own a television, and you began hearing that while this was all very well and good, it was unfair of him to inflict his beliefs upon others, specifically his innocent wife and children” (sedaris 1).

“What must it be like to be so ignorant and alone?” ( Sedaris 1 )

When Vybz kartel dropped the album King of the dancehall it initially sounded like another classic album by the world renowned gaza leader. With Vybz Kartel being in jail, other artist began to “come up” Previous to the drop of this album, his tension with Alkaline,another artist, rose to new heights leading fans to believe this album was going to be a rebuttal to many of alkaline’s claims of being the new king of the dancehall. However , Jamaica was low on unity and Vybz Kartel uses his soapbox as a public figure who people not only look up to him but aspire to be. His break out song “Fever” revolutionized dancehall by changing the delivery of a melancholy topic and making it upbeat for everyone to not only enjoy at parties and functions but gives an underlying meaning to think about after. Vybz kartel pulls at your heartstrings with pathos,  and takes you to court with ethics to spread his belief of love to his fan base around the world .

From the very first bar , Vybz Kartel, oozing with feelings, creates an r&b mood with his melancholy high pitch voice . The voice of the artist is one of his many persona . In fact many of his songs have different sounding voices when he speaks on different topics. For Instance, “Xoxo my love is very special” said with a very . Starting off with “xoxo” refers to hugs and kiss, which are affectionate actions they puts the idea of love in your mind and like r&b songs do they cause your feelings to become heightened and aroused. Where love is not very prevalent, Vybz Kartel decided love music is what his people of the caribbean islands need.

Through pathos the main message behind the song “Fever” is to love and never take someone else or their love for granted. Vybz kartel plays with your heart strings every time you sing the lyrics “..and don’t take me for granted” because in reality throughout friendships , companionships and relationships in general individuals experience the feeling of being taken for granted or not being up to par with for something they want. He continues “So much things I did not say” this sounds like your classic relationship. Vybz kartel is literally speaking to the hearts of everyone. Mothers and children, wives and husbands , teachers and students, all come to feel that they could have said something or have done something better when they look back on a situation. Kartel uses that to his advantage and incorporates that in the chorus in order to repeat it and get his message across.

My text , “fever”, by vybz kartel ,is a well known modern dancehall/ Reggae artist. Other titles such as gaza world boss given to him by his peer. He has many publishers as a regular musician he uses alot of different producers and gets his music published out for the fans . For example Yellow moon records or de do don records . They published it around May ,2016 . Of courses there no specific date being that it was leaked many times . Vybz Kartel uses his power to give relationship advice to all the missing relationship through the perspectives of a taken for granted young man . The author (vybz kartel ) uses pathos to attempt at feel were you’re spouse or partner is coming from and all the positives they do for you .

With this argument I choose to dive into the true meaning of a song that is misconstrued or taking as a joke.

The purpose is talk about something that i think should be talked about it may spark a talk about all songs that have lowkey meanings that can even be life threatening . Although it mainly addresses couples it can also be aimed at individuals who are looking back relationships it really doesn’t exemplify anyone.

The fact that its a song really impacts the listener/ audience more than anything .
