Rhythm Nation 1814

A lot of you are wondering why my name and address are 1814. Well, I thought it would be a great idea to associate this blog with a reference from culture that also has a political connotation because it is fitting.





It is the name of one of Janet Jackson's earlier albums that was heavy on dance beats and political agenda, which, to me, is the perfect mixture. You can dance to it and it has a great message, pop culture is the culture of the modern human.

"1814" stands for the first 2 letters of the album's title, the R and the N, and it also happens to be the year that women, in the states, where given thier right to education. So, this is where I get 1814 from. Get the album, you'll know what I am talking about.
