I will be responding to Part A of Challenge 5. For the challenge, I will remix the lyrics of the Shaker hymn/dance song "Simple Gifts" to reflect the lifestyle of a member of hip hop culture. I chose this song because of one of the lyrics it contains ("to turn, turn, will be our delight") contains the word "turn" which has very recently been appropriated by hip hop culture ("turn up" and "turnt") and I am intrigued by this link between two musical genres that seem to be polar opposites.
