When you think of a rant, you probably immediately imagine a loud mouth, rambling on and on about a particular subject. That could be true but not always. Rants come in different expressions. Merriam Webster states to rant is "to talk in a noisy, excited, or declamatory manner". A rant can be written, vocal or visual but it is an emotional expression of thoughts or emotions that we have inside. It is probably best to provide thoughtful expressions of our opinions and some even prefer the 'politically correct' manner of expressions. Some express opinions via social media while others debate among friends, colleagues and sometimes anyone who will listen.
Artists often express their views creatively, whether via visual images, music or written form. Nevertheless, a rant is a rant. Rants are not necessarily negative. They can be humorous, emotional and thought provoking. The 'noise' may overshadow the message, or even enhance the message. Nevertheless, we cannot overlook the power in the rant.
