Hip Hop Mogul loses $1M to Rapper


My article was a pop culture article in the Hip Hop industry about the Hip Hop mogul, Diddy (on right), gambling and losing $1 million to rapper Rick Ross (left). I found the text of the article to be strong because it gave the readers the full story as to what happened in this gamble over what seemed to be pocket change to these Hip Hop giants. The video was a strong form of media in this article because it uses a popular form of social media. It’s also strong because it draws the viewers in with the appearance of celebrities. It gives the audience something they want to see: the way celebrities act in their down time. The ability to comment on the article is very effective because it lets readers leave feedback and share their thoughts on the story. It also lets other members comment or like comments left by previous members leaving potential for short term discussions. All together these three media were prominent in grabbing the audience’s attention and keeping them interested. If I could change anything about this article it would be the video that was used. I would have personally wanted to make a video and possibly interview the two about the bet. The video used in the article was not made by the article writer but provided by them by using one ofthe rapper’s social media accounts.
