PB1B dance genres

         PB1B: Dance Genres

      I have found literary literary genres in "Dance" that i though was interesting. dance may be a topic but when it comes to genres, there are many genres of dance. Three different genres of dance of dance that can be found in articles and different forms of writing are Hip Hop, Tap Dance, and Salsa. When you think of the word genre the first thing that might come to your mind is music because thats probably what you already know about genres. Im here to show you that genre can be found in things you do and see in everyday life. Genre can be anything thats in a form of writing. 


      The first type of dance genre is "Hip Hop". Hip Hop evolved from the music style that was first introduced in the 1970s. Powers by the great popularity in media, movies, and television programs. Hip Hop dances found a great foothold on the United States France, United Kingdom, and South Karea. You can find different articles about Hip Hop dance online. For example I got my article from Hotnewhiphop.com 

Journalist that works for Hotnewhiphop.com writes about how dances have been going viral over the years.

      Some people can read these articles from different perspectives. This article can be persuasive to someone or very informal. Someone thats reading a piece like this would scan through it cause it could be some important information in it. Someone would red this article like a writer because it will help them to better understand the rhetorical writing. 


      If someone was to read this article rhetorically that means that the person thought that the article was in a persuasive form of writing. In the articles I found , I found that they were all genres.
In the Hip Hop article i found different strategies we use when discussing genre. 
                               1.Rhetorical writing 
                               2. Logos
                               3.Conventions
                               4.Ethos

      The Hip Hop article showed examples of rhetorical writing because in the article it stated " These dances in a way , link all of us together and allow everyone to let go, be silly, and have a little fun. Thats kinda persuasive right? The article is basically presiding the reader to dance because its fun. This article also showed Logos by stating that Hip Hop dances are trends today and go viral all the time online. People see the dances from all around the world. Its proven facts how many people have viewed this video.  This article shows conventions too! It explains what ingredients were put together to make these videos go viral . Like on Facebook getting shared around and on youtube and other online sites. 

      The article obviously used Ethos. At the very top before the article it says the writer name and when it was posted . As you can see from my examples. Genre can be any form of writing no matter what it might might be. It can be music , books, resumes, cover letters or reference letters ect.
