Prompt: Please respond to the following:
Begin by comparing, in your own words, the main arguments of Lipsitz and Davis. What do you see as their central claims about music, and how do they compare?
Next, thinking back to Lipsitz’s analysis of the Isley Brothers and Ice Cube, notice how Lipsitz and Davis have very similar approaches to their studies of music. That is, their arguments are different and focus on different genres and time periods, but their methodologies are quite similar. What kinds of sources do Lipsitz and Davis turn to? How do they use other authors’ ideas to form their arguments? What role does historical context play as they establish themes and interpret lyrics?
