My Capstone Project: NLP – Cultural Evolution Through Lyrics

Using a combination of web scraping and the Genius.com API, acquired lyrics for 25k+ songs appearing on the Billboard Hot 100 from 1958-Present. Investigated patterns in lyrics across decades using techniques such as Topic Modeling, Sentiment Analysis, and Term Frequency. Compared these patterns with historical and cultural events. Created a classification model to predict the decade of a song given it’s lyrics, more than doubling the baseline accuracy.

“With technology, I am most passionate about machine learning and its application in healthcare.
