Furthermore, the transcript of the speech was obtained from Rolling Stone music website. Meanwhile, in analyzing the data, the researchers use systemic functional linguistics specifically the use of transitivity to analyze the data. The result of this study shows that the American-singer used material process at most. There are 172 (44.3%) material processes existed in the data out of 388 processes found in the speech. Then, it is followed by relationalprocess with 90 processes (23,1%) and mental process with 81 processes (20,9%). However, she did notuse meteorological at all.
