         Once again the worldly success was a lot easier to find then Liberation. I think it is easy to write songs about getting rich, the drugs and the women. I found that worldly success was mostly in rap songs than any other genre of music. I was very surprised at how difficult it was to find songs on liberation, I'm not even sure if I got the right songs for liberation. I think that American pop does not have the wholesomeness about money, wealth, fame and power as the Hindu outlook does. I think that Hinduism is very different when compared to American pop.

         I definitely felt that the Pleasure Aim was a lot easier to find songs about, majority songs are about pleasure. I just feel that most people write songs about there pleasures and it makes it a lot easier to express your feelings. I was very surprised on how hard it was to find songs on community service, I hope that I got the right songs for Duty and Community Service. I really enjoyed finding songs and listening to them and hearing what they had to say. For the Pleasure and Duty Aims, I felt that they differed from American pop music, because American pop does not seek out pleasure intelligently and it is very ruthless in getting what you want and not being respectful.
