WHO am I

The author of the piece that I am doing for my paper is Jamal Jenkins better known as the rapper Young Jeezy. The source that I choose to use to find out more information about Jeezy past is on the internet. The world is at your fingertips with our advancement of technology, and any fact can be accessible within seconds. I found a few useful sources that gave me insight on information that I could use in my paper for the ethos appeal.
The process began by me typing in Young Jeezy name in the Google search engine. About 3.2 million hits bout up, and proceed to pick the third listing which was his official def jam site. The site contains pictures, news, tour dates, and other useful information. I clicked on the tab at the top that said biography. My goal was to collect some facts that work in my favor to strengthen the ethos appeal.
Next I clicked on the tab that was listed as Audio. I scrolled down his songs until I reached the one that I was searching for. I listened to the song once again in order to refresh my memory so I could find new ideas and points that I could use as part of my argument.
The advantages of my search are that I have found out more than I originally knew about the rapper and his motivation to become a rapper. I did not know he was a CEO of his own rap label first. Disadvantages did exist, however, on my search to find out more about him. I am not sure to trust the credibility of the different sites. Jeezy has made it known that he was a drug dealer as a youngster, but the different sites try to mask that part of his past for one reason or the other.
