A Happy Valentine's Day Weekly Post! <3

Hey everyone, let me spread some love this Valentine's week with some brand new info on our beloved artist and record label. J. Cole decided to directly share one his top hits on the mixed tape "Revenge of the Dreamers," Jay Z has came out with a new cologne, (Get ready men, maybe we can get our own Beyonce now!) and Roc Nation shares some info on its very own player Skylar Diggins of the Tulsa Shock WNBA team.

 J. Cole chose to help out his "TALENTED,"(can't forget that emphasis, capitalizing certain words on twitter definitely draws the attention of viewers) music artist Treasure Davis. J. Cole was a feature on her song "May The Bitter Man Win," making a fantastic combo of sweet tunes and poetic verses. It is song's like this one that make me LOVE music and a fan of J. Cole. In the tweet, J. Cole put a sound cloud link, making it easy for fans to click and jam out to tunes immediately. Of course as a music artist, it is important to get your talent heard, and sound cloud is becoming a great site for music sharing. This method is highly logical, that is sharing music through social media, so let us call it an appeal to logos. The cover of those sexy legs, which probably belong to the beautiful Treasure Davis are a form of pathos because of the emotions they may stir within some fans. At least they definitely made me want to listen.

Roc Nation advertised the movements of its very own WNBA star Skylar Diggins who turnt up at the sprint post up along with some others under the Jay Z label. What a Shock! (You get it? What a Shock? She plays for Tulsa Shock… if you did not) Anyways! Roc Nation like most weeks did what it does best, help its star's shine! No picture, no link, just a hashtag and @ because thats all it takes for the successful company to advertise about its members. 
Here it is folks! The answer, GOLD by Jay Z!  Jay Z strategically released his new fragrance this Valentine's week to help us men out with the ladies. HOVA's new cologne will no doubt be a top seller because his "crazy" ethos, he is easily one of the most respectable artist in the game. Obviously he posted a picture of the bottle, with such a simple yet elegant look. You see those likes??? Saying people are exited to sniff this new scent would be an understatement. Because of the great timing of his new cologne (Valentine's Week), Jay Z wins the post of the week again.

  1. I really appreciated your tone throughout this post. It was funny and laid-back which is definitely consistent with and appropriate for the subject matter. I found your analysis of Jay-Z's post this week particularly interesting. Discussing the timing of the release of his new fragrance was really effective in addressing the rhetorical situation and the audience he was targeting. Additionally, I thought it was really helpful how you acknowledged how certain words are emphasized on Twitter, and why that's crucial to this type of marketing through social media.

  2. Just like what Ellie said, your tone is definitely funny and attractive. That kind of tone made me read your post fluently and comfortably. I like your analysis of the picture on the cover of J. Cole's mixed tape because it is critical, reasonable and interesting. I thought I wouldn't notice this emotional appeal if I was analyzing that post. The fragrance ad analysis part is also awesome because you take the background (Valentine's day) into consideration.
