Question 7 - Plagiarism Self Test

Popular Culture

Source Material Used:

[Kanye] calls in the heavyweights: Jay-Z, Common, Brandy, Cam'ron, Consequence, the Game, and Paul Wall. But his MVP is Fiona Apple producer Jon Brion, whose previous hip-hop experience is zero. A bold move, yet a brilliant one--Brion brings in live orchestrations and weird instruments as raw material for West's imagination. Give 'Ye a harpsichord and he will make it funky.

Citation

Example Usage:
