Hi! Our names are Isa and Charu. We rapped to Sonnet 8 by William Shakespeare. In this sonnet in particular, music is being compared to love. The person or the protagonist (the one writing the poem), is writing to someone who seems to not enjoy music, despite the fact that his/her partner (the protagonist) loves him or her (probably her because Shakespeare is the one writing the poem) greatly. He moves on to talk about the actual music, which is teaching the loved one a lesson about love; alone, your existence won’t be fruitful. It could also mean that alone, their efforts wouldn’t have rippled as greatly as they would have with a partner, as women’s rights and freedom of thought were not very respected in that era (1500s). In short, love is a sweet melody that has to be enjoyed while it lasts.
