🎙️ The Future Is Now: GoogleLM & The Evolution of Black Masculinity in Music 🎶

In this groundbreaking episode, I use GoogleLM to bring my 2005 Henry Rutgers thesis to life, proving that the future is now—AI meets academia! 🤖🔥

My research dives deep into Black masculinity on album covers, comparing top-selling Black and White male solo artists. Are Black men depicted as more violent, exaggerated, or hyper-masculine compared to their White counterparts? How do race, capitalism, and media representation shape these visuals?

Using content analysis, I break down the presence of violence and smiles across genres, revealing what these images say about society’s views on race and gender. Of course, there are limitations—what’s “violent” is subjective, and an album cover doesn’t always reflect the music inside.

This episode isn’t just about the past—it’s about the future of research, AI, and the stories we tell. Tune in and witness history remix itself. #AIResearch #BlackMasculinity #GoogleLM 🎧🚀
