Flapper to Rappers

I think the use of the modern rap music was great for the movie since it did come out in 2013. By this, I mean a lot of the younger crowd today will listen to this music just as young adults would listen to jazz in the 1920's. Another connection is how back in the gilded age jazz was looked at as the music that should be frowned upon, just as rap could be looked at as frowned upon in this era. For the movie, although it looked like it was in the 20's, the music made it feel like it was much more modern.
