Eminem

Hello all, and a special hello and welcome to all my fellow music loving fans. My name is Mackenzie Donegan and this is my podcast of the day. Many music fans (with taste), know Eminem, alter ego being “Slim Shady”, and birth name being Marshall Bruce Mathers the Third. I am a huge fan of Eminem and all of his music, being one of the most talented rappers to ever exist. Most of his fans are aware of his new album coming out on November 5, 2013; pretty soon and I’m very thrilled to see what this brings to the rap world and to Eminem’s future as an artist. Two new singles of his album were recently just released, the first being “Berzerk”, taking Eminem back all the way to his Slim Shady days. All old school fans and rap fans should listen and listen more than once. A line at the beginning of the song says “Lets bring it back to that vintage Slim”. His voice and words depict how similar he sounds to his older style of music. His second released single is a 7 minute free style rap named “Rap God”. Take a few minutes, listen, enjoy, and anticipate what Slim Shady will bring to us on November 5, 2013. Marshal Mathers LP 2 everyone.

iPod, favorite flannel, a pair of skinny jeans and my white converse; Usually pretty happy. I enjoy gangster rap, reggae, rock n roll and all the good music that’s still out there. Always laughing at something

Relaxing by the nearby waterfall recently. Pretty peaceful day, life is good here














Starbucks


Starbucks uses Facebook to engage customers especially by emphasizing new and seasonal products that the company brings back due to past success with the product. According to Facebook Success Stories, “Starbucks engages fans by letting them choose which city gets the Pumpkin Spice Latte first”, and by this they hype up the excitement for fall and the return of the beloved Pumpkin spice latte. The company also gets fans of this beverage excited to participate in a contest to try and get their hometown’s share of the pumpkin spice first. This idea has not only advertised the fall and seasonal latte, but has given customers the chance to be apart of what the company produces and when, making individuals in a way in charge of when the products come to their town. Starbucks having a Facebook has helped reach out and inform customers, bringing success to the company. “With more than 27 million fans, Starbucks’ Facebook community is larger than the population of many countries. No wonder, then, that the coffee retailer likes to give these brand loyalists a say in how it does things. Using Facebook, that’s exactly what Starbucks did” (Facebook Success Stories).
