Girl Power: Beyonce Some of Beyonce's most influential and empowering songs for girls and women across the globe are "If I Were a Boy" and "Run the World (Girls)." Not only does she have girl power in her songs, but she herself runs and plans everything that has to do with her career: her concerts, producing her songs, and her music videos. Hip Hop & Rap: Soulja Boy I remember Soulja Boy being especially popular when I was in elementary school and all the sixth graders would listen to his song "Crank Thank" on the bus.

I always see people on the side of the road holding up signs for a protest, or promoting a political cause, or  advertising services, but I have never seen anyone hold up signs that do not relate to anything. Each said "Honk For: Spaghetti, Candles, Lamps, and Camels." The footage in the video was taken over the course of about thirty minutes of standing on the corner of the crosswalk. Not surprisingly, the most popular sign that people chose to honk at was the spaghetti sign, maybe because it was the oddest thing to honk for, or maybe because so many people like spaghetti. At every green light, I would change my sign and hold it up for the people in the passing cars to see. I would watch the people in their cars and I could see some people reading the sign as they passed, laughing at the subject matte
