I chose to do a song for this assignment. I picked “I’ll be missing you” by Sean “P.Diddy” Combs. This song was dedicated to the Nortorious B.I.G., aka, Christopher Wallace. He and Combs had a very good friendship while they were in the music business. In 1997, Wallace was shot to death, and in June 1997, Combs made this song as a tribute to his friend. Every single person can relate to this song because we have all lost someone near and dear to us at some point. I shaped the lyrics of his song in the shape of a cross. Being a Christian, the cross is a very important symbol for me, as it is for all Christians. When we go through something as tough as losing a loved one, we ask God to give us the strength to overcome the emotional pain it causes us. I understand not everyone is the same religion, but since both Combs and Wallace are and were Christians themselves, I felt it was appropriate.
