Watch The Throne

Jay-Z & Kanye West's new album "Watch The Throne" released August 8th 2011. Featuring artists Beyonce, Frank Ocean, Mr. Hudson & more.
The album consists of religion wealth & fame. Every track on the album was a hit. This was probably one of the best collaboration albums, by two great artists of their caliber.

The two artists had recorded the album in hotel rooms in Paris, Los Angeles and New York. They had multiple release dates set as well to keep the fans wondering. A couple of tracks had leaked their way to the Internet world early. The album it self was the first major-label project in years that didn't leak in its entirety ahead of time.
           
Two very wealthy and lyrical artists putting one amazing album out. The carter IV released around the same time and had more album sales in the first week.
            But overall Watch the throne hands down is album of the year.

notes for newspaper, swag

step 1. we pick our story we have interest in,

step 2. brainstorm who i want to interview for the story. (students) keep interviews to adults at a minimum. think outside the box :O

step 3. come up with a set of questions to ask people. (dont ask questions that can be ask with a yes or no!)
ask open ended questions. write different sets of questions depending on the people you are asking.

step 4. got to my editor and ask the expectations, communicate with the editors so you can know how much to write.

5. come up with an outline form of what i think the story is going to be about.
Quote- Transition.    TELL A STORY...

6.go do the interviews!! :o skip the lead go to the body of the story.. the meet. i should always piece the middle of the story. :)

7. then write your lead :O those first 5 words are those words that make the reader want to keep on reading.

8. complete the story

(DONT MISS DEADLINE)
