3. Do research and find the relevant information required in step 4. Be sure to cite the websites, books, textbook, etc. where you found the information.
4. Now that you’ve carefully examined the work of music you selected, write a new thread of at least 200 words, in which you:
Identify the song and artist / band that you chose.
Provide a brief biography of your chosen artist / band.
Describe the artist’s / band’s style of music.
Identify at least one musician, band or musical style from the textbook or online exploration that influenced your chosen song. (Consider similarities in components, style, and/or context).
Indicate how you came to that conclusion and include specific evidence from the text, your research, your online exploration, and your chosen song that supports your arguments. Include the URL (hyperlink) to your chosen song.
Explain why you chose the song, using your knowledge of musical components, styles, and history.

One Example, the South Korean K-Pop group Girls’ Generation, has been a phenomenal success across many parts of Asia since it hit the scene in 2007. They have been compared to the sensation that was created in the 1960s by the Beatles.
BTS is arguably even bigger! Using the internet, find out as much information as possible about Girls’ Generation, BTS, or any other K Pop artist and use the guiding questions in #2 below to guide your research.
