Yes, I Rap, So What?

It's just who I am.

Yes, I Rap, So What?
Noah Harris

I have stumbled across many inspirations in my life, but I've never been so inspired to rap like I am now.

At about my age, my inspiration showed me rapping should be comfortable. You should show your true colors through your own skin and forgetting about all regrets is the key to success.

I made my first beat when I was on vacation with my family. We were skiing up in the hills of Michigan and they helped me pull it together. Ever since then, I've been on a non-stop roll of producing beats and music for anyone to come and check them out.

After publishing my first song, I've received a lot of criticism – both good and bad. I couldn't understand the negativity I received, as I worked hard to produce something I'm proud of, but at the end of the day, I should accept my accomplishments as hard work – no one should tell me to stop.

With that being said, most of the criticism I received was positive. Everyone was impressed that I could create such a thing, and it just makes me proud that I was able to accomplish it.

I've gone on to produce so much more music. I've recently downloaded Logic Pro X for my MacBook and I've been having fun with it ever since. I used to mess around with GarageBand on my iPhone – it was the only thing I used for creating music, even for my ukulele songs — but after downloading Logic I've opened my eyes up to a whole new world of music.

I'll be honest and say I look up YouTube videos to help me create the music I want to create. It's not easy trying to figure out Logic by yourself, but I've gone a pretty long way of figuring it out myself – including the videos I find on the Internet.

I'm very excited to produce my next Logic beat. I pulled up a YouTube video teaching me how to create a sub-bass for a track and I learned how to do it — so expect my next song to have a pumping bass.

I hope to feature my friends in my future works. I'm really excited about my next beat.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
