  • Fun*Da*Mental
    John Hutnyk THE DIALECTICS OF EUROPEAN HIP-HOP Fun^da^mental and the deathening silence This article takes into account debates about the provenance of hip-hop in Europe, examines instances of the band Fun^da^mental’s creative engagement with, and destabilisation of, music genres, and takes a broadly culture critique perspective as a guide to rethinking hip-hop journalism. Music and ethnicity are core parameters for discussion, and the idea that musical cultures are variously authentic, possessive or coherent is questioned. The war of terror is the wider context. The politics of Fun^da^mental is the politics of hip-hop, crossed with a punk Islam that morphs increasingly into interventions around race and representation, the war of ‘terror’, and a radical version of human rights activism. This paper charts an intertwined story about the journalistic reportage that surrounds the band and the record company from which they come, and the role of commentary and critique of the cultural politics, in a National register, that is their chosen milieu. In Britain, should it surprise us, the lyrical-rhythmic production of this Nation Records’ outfit has led to a terse relationship with the mainstream. Much of the music industry press and the critical comment that has been addressed to the band, and to their left- oriented takes on racism, imperialism, women and war, has betrayed itself as inadequate through distortion, condemnation and hostility.1 It is by now common- place that hip-hop often suffers a bad press; but when it comes in the guise of Islam- oriented South Asians from the North of England, mixed up with a militant New York sensibility and an intolerance of intolerance that takes on world historical political issues, this is exacerbated.
