    Kajikawa, Loren. 2015. Sounding Race in Rap Songs. Oak- land: University of California Press. Reviewed by Tracy McMullen In 1991, Scott Deveaux warned that an “official history of jazz had taken hold,” aided and abetted by the work of academics. From a “chaotic di- versity of style and expression” came a “coherent whole, . a skillfully contrived and easily comprehended narrative” (525). Deveaux attributed this primarily to textbooks, which reinforced the narrative of neat stylistic decades (1920s New Orleans jazz, 1930s Swing, 1940s Bebop, etc.) and the institutionalization of jazz studies within colleges and universities. Because jazz was a relatively recent art form, Deveaux could watch the official his- tory develop and cohere before his eyes. Now it may be hip-hop’s turn. Like jazz, hip-hop is a new art form minted in the United States through the ex- pressive practices of African Americans. The rise of hip-hop has been con- current with the rise of ethnic studies departments and, more recently, the inclusion of popular music as a serious field of study in the academy. Thus, while jazz studies took decades to be accepted as a legitimate field within music departments, hip-hop studies is better positioned to find its way into a multitude of academic disciplines. It is important, therefore, to take les- sons from the development of jazz studies as the field of hip-hop studies takes shape. Is it possible for hip-hop studies to resist the model of “official history” with monograph-style counters from the margins (“women in hip-hop,” “Latinx in hip-hop”)? What would the field look like if scholars could collectively eschew the tendency to create a dominant narrative with its immutable “key elements,” masterpieces, and great innovators? Rather than center and margin, perhaps hip-hop as a field could choose flow as a model—an early example of which might be the foundational and help- fully plural text, The Hip-Hop Studies Reader (Forman and Neal 2012).

Reg. 60185. George Clinton (“Clinton”) submitted informal objections on August 25, 2014, id. at 60186, and hereby submits through his undersigned counsel his formal comments objecting to the proposed settlement and distribution. INTRODUCTION George Clinton is the Godfather of Funk and a national treasure. A recording artist since 1959, Clinton is one of the most important musicians of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. In Parliament and Funkadelic, musical groups he formed and led, he scored more than forty hit singles in the 1970s, including four R&B number ones: Parliament’s “Flash Light” and “Aqua Boogie (A Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadoloop),” and Funkadelic’s million-selling “One Nation Under A Groove” and “(Not Just) Knee Deep.” Clinton, along with fifteen other members of Parliament and Funkadelic, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. In 2011, the Smithsonian Institution acquired the Mothership, the flying saucer from which Clinton’s groups once embarked to begin concert performances, to anchor the National Museum of African American History’s inaugural exhibition.1 In 2012, Berklee College of Music awarded Clinton an honorary doctorate.

  • Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992
    Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 By Felicia Angeja Viator A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair Professor Scott Saul Fall 2012 Abstract Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 by Felicia Angeja Viator Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair “Gangster Boogie” details the early development of hip-hop music in Los Angeles, a city that, in the 1980s, the international press labeled the “murder capital of the U.S.” The rap music most associated with the region, coined “gangsta rap,” has been regarded by scholars, cultural critics, and audiences alike as a tabloid distortion of East Coast hip-hop. The dissertation shows that this uniquely provocative genre of hip-hop was forged by Los Angeles area youth as a tool for challenging civic authorities, asserting regional pride, and exploiting the nation’s growing fascination with the ghetto underworld. Those who fashioned themselves “gangsta rappers” harnessed what was markedly difficult about life in black Los Angeles from the early 1970s through the Reagan Era––rising unemployment, project living, crime, violence, drugs, gangs, and the ever-increasing problem of police harassment––to create what would become the benchmark for contemporary hip-hop music. My central argument is that this music, because of the social, political, and economic circumstances from which it emerged, became a vehicle for underclass empowerment during the Reagan Era.

  • We Gon' Be Alright?
    We Gon’ Be Alright? The Ambiguities of Kendrick Lamar’s Protest Anthem * Noriko Manabe NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: hp://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.19.25.1/mto.19.25.1.manabe.php KEYWORDS: Rap music, hip hop, flow, meter, intonation, vocal pitch, protest music, protest chants, African American English ABSTRACT: The best-known track on Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Buerfly, “Alright” has come to be regarded as a protest anthem, fueled by Lamar’s charged performances of the song at the BET Awards and the Grammys, and by accolades from the press that cite its political importance. This article argues that the actual musical track is ambiguous and open to several interpretations. To support this idea, I first explore the process through which the track came into being and how this process may have contributed to the song’s ambiguity. I then examine the message of “Alright,” contextualizing its place in the concept album and in the music video. I closely examine the musical track, analyzing its accent paerns using the metrical preference rules of Lerdahl and Jackendoff (1983) and David Temperley (2001). This analysis of the track implies a 3+5 or 3+2+3 beat reading of 4 the meter in addition to a straight 4. Using the linguistic tool Praat, I analyze the ways in which rappers Fabolous (who originally recorded on the track) and Lamar respond to this meter in their stresses, rhythms, and rhymes. I examine the well-known hook, which Pharrell Williams raps with a striking rise in pitch.

  • Groove Theory: a Vamp on the Epistemology of Funk
    Groove Theory 9 Groove Theory: A Vamp on the Epistemology of Funk Tony Bolden When asked to define funk, George Clinton once said, “If it makes you shake your rump, it’s the funk.”1 At the most basic level, the term “funk” signifies honesty and beauty of expression at the depths of human emotion. As such, funk comprises the secular counterpart of “the spirit”—what Albert Murray calls “paroxysms of ecstasy”—in black church worship. Writing about James Brown, the musicologist Teresa L. Reed makes an observation that is applicable to funk music generally. She states that the music “captures the soulful spontaneity of the Sanctified church and the animated exhortation of the Sanctified preacher. [The music] also emulates and incites an emotional intensity parallel to the Holy Spirit possession that is a trademark of the Sanctified worship service.”2 Teddy Pendergrass makes a similar point in his memoir Truly Blessed. Recall- ing his childhood experiences in what he described as a “rock-‘em, sock-‘em, sanctified, feel-the-Spirit church,” Pendergrass said, “We talk today about the innovations in rhythm made by great jazz musicians and pioneers like James Brown, but the truth is, they had nothing on a congregation going full force in praise of the Lord.”3 The musicologist Guthrie P. Ramsey, Jr. echoes Pendergrass’s statement in his recollection of his experiences as a member of the Sanctified Band in Chicago. According to Ramsey, “Funky was the watchword . God liked funky. Funky ministered to the people.”4 Of course, black churches have always functioned as training repositories for black musicians, but the frenzy and kinetic expression associated with holiness churches played a disproportionate 0026-3079/2013/5204-009$2.50/0 American Studies, 52:4 (2013): 9-34 9 10 Tony Bolden role in funk music.
