ARTIST-INFORMATION Eine Information Der Cold Life Entertainment Konzertagentur, Inhaber Carsten Wolkowski, Horster Str ARTIST-INFORMATION Eine Information der Cold Life Entertainment Konzertagentur, Inhaber Carsten Wolkowski, Horster Str. 74a, 45968 Gladbeck Seite 1 / 2 SLUM VILLAGE Detroit, Michigan (USA) Die aus Detroit, Michigan, stammende HipHop-Formation Slum Village gründete sich 1996, bestehend aus T3, Baathin und Jay Dee, besser bekannt als J Dilla. Wie so oft stimmte die Chemie, und wie nicht ganz so oft stimmen die Kontakte in die Musikwelt – so landet das Trio 1998 als Vorband der legendären A Tribe Called Quest erstmals auf den amerikanischen Bühnen. Diese Chance ist dem Mastermind und Produzenten J Dilla zuzuschreiben, der als Teil des Produzenten-Kollektivs The Ummah später für Szenegrößen wie Q-Tip, A Tribe Called Quest, D’Angelo, The Pharcyde, De La Soul und Common produziert und Mitschuld an dem ein oder anderen Klassiker trägt. Das Debütalbum der drei Rapper „Fantastic, Vol.2“ (2000) hinterlässt - neben der Begeisterung für die souligen Beats und die überzeugenden Reime des Trios (auch Jay Dee rappt) - gleich eine Frage: Was ist mit „Fantastic, Vol. 1“ passiert? Probleme mit der ungeliebten Musikindustrie haben den ersten Teil schlichtweg verschluckt. Davon sind nicht nur die neu gewonnenen Fans enttäuscht, sondern auch Slum Village selbst. Kurzerhand legen sich die drei zwecks Albumveröffentlichung übergangsweise den neuen Namen J-88 zu und veröffentlichen nur einen Monat nach ihrem Debüt das Kurzalbum „Best Kept Secret“. Neben Songs des heftig „gebootlegten“ echten „Fantastic, Vol.1“ sind darauf Remixe und einige neue Songs zu finden. 2001 verlässt Jay Dee Slum Village, um den Weg des allseits hochgelobten Produzenten alleine zu gehen. Zum Nachfolgealbum „Trinity (Past, Present and Future)“ steuert er aber noch drei Beats bei. Es war ihr erstes Album bei einem Major-Label. Zwei Jahre später gab es erneut einen Abgang bei Slum Village; Baatin verließ die Gruppe aufgrund seiner Schizophrenie. Im Juli 2004 erschien „Detroit Deli (A Taste of Detroit“) – hier waren Kanye West, Ol' Dirty Bastard, Dwele und John Legend als Gäste vertreten – zugleich war dies ihr letztes Album bei Capitol Records. Ihr drittes Album „Slum Village“ erschien 2005 bereits über ihr eigenes Label, Barak Records. Kurz darauf folgte dann der erste Schicksalsschlag für die Gruppe – Gründungsmitglied Jay Dee verstirbt am 10. Februar 2006 nach langer Krankheit und hinterlässt die HipHop- Gemeinde in tiefer Trauer. So auch T3 und Elzhi, die sich den Trauerbekundungen der Rap- Welt anschließen. „Es geht zurzeit etwas sehr Seltsames in unserem Universum vor.“, wundert sich Busta Rhymes, als am 1. August 2009 mit Titus (Baatin) Glover ein weiteres Gründungsmitglied verstirbt. Wieder ist die Anteilnahme groß – Künstler wie Talib Kweli erweisen Slum Village noch einmal ihren Respekt. Statt Elzhi und T3 sind es ab diesem Zeitpunkt T3, Young RJ – der fast alle Tracks produziert hat – und Illa J, J Dillas jüngerer Bruder, die die Fackel weitertragen. Mit Rapper Big Pooh, Vice, Big Sean, Black Milk, De La Soul, Phonte, Joe Scudda u.a. haben sich gleich eine ganze Reihe PRESSEKONTAKT Carsten Wolkowski | Monika Wilhelm Tel.: +49 (0) 2043 / 402 55 22 | E-Mail: [email protected] Pressematerial & aktuelle Infos unter: www.coldlife-entertainment.com/presse ARTIST-INFORMATION Eine Information der Cold Life Entertainment Konzertagentur, Inhaber Carsten Wolkowski, Horster Str. 74a, 45968 Gladbeck Seite 2 / 2 namhafter Unterstützer des neuen Slum Village die Ehre gegeben. Musikalisch versucht man an bessere Tage anzuknüpfen, d.h. kein Swag-Rap, nirgends. Stattdessen Indie-Rap nach der Zauberformel der Jahrtausendwende, klassischer, reduzierter Rap in bester Post-Native- Tongues-Tradition mit dem Anspruch keinen zu hohlen Kram in den Texten zu erzählen. Mit „Villa Manifesto“ veröffentlichten Slum Village 2007 ihr sechstes Studioalbum, welches sowohl als Reunion dienen als auch die verstorbenen Mitglieder ehren soll. Die beiden zu diesem Zeitpunkt bereits verstorbenen Gründungsmitglieder Baatin und J Dilla erschienen mit vorher aufgenommenen und nie veröffentlichten Beiträgen neben T3, Elzhi und Illa J als Hauptkünstler des Albums, so dass Slum Village mit dieser LP alle fünf Elemente vereinen konnten. J Dilla hätte am 07. Februar dieses Jahres seinen 40. Geburtstag gefeiert. Zu diesem Anlass veröffentlichen seine ehemaligen Bandkollegen an seinem Geburtstag den von ihm produzierten Track „Yes Yes“, welcher auch auf dem im Herbst erscheinenden Album „Yes“ zu finden ist. Im September und Oktober sind Slum Village dann im Rahmen einer ausgedehnten Europa-Tournee endlich wieder live unterwegs. www.slumvillage.com | www.facebook.com/slumvillageofficial Booking-Kontakt: Carsten Wolkowski (in Kooperation mit LineUp Booking) Tel.: +49 (0) 2043 / 402 55 22 | E-Mail: [email protected] weitere Infos und aktuelle Termine: www.coldlife-entertainment.com/artist/slum-village PRESSEKONTAKT Carsten Wolkowski | Monika Wilhelm Tel.: +49 (0) 2043 / 402 55 22 | E-Mail: [email protected] Pressematerial & aktuelle Infos unter: www.coldlife-entertainment.com/presse .

  • In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence
    In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Crystal Joesell Radford, BA Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2011 Thesis Committee: Professor Beverly Gordon, Advisor Professor Adrienne Dixson Copyrighted by Crystal Joesell Radford 2011 Abstract This study critically analyzes rap through an interdisciplinary framework. The study explains rap‟s socio-cultural history and it examines the multi-generational, classed, racialized, and gendered identities in rap. Rap music grew out of hip-hop culture, which has – in part – earned it a garnering of criticism of being too “violent,” “sexist,” and “noisy.” This criticism became especially pronounced with the emergence of the rap subgenre dubbed “gangsta rap” in the 1990s, which is particularly known for its sexist and violent content. Rap music, which captures the spirit of hip-hop culture, evolved in American inner cities in the early 1970s in the South Bronx at the wake of the Civil Rights, Black Nationalist, and Women‟s Liberation movements during a new technological revolution. During the 1970s and 80s, a series of sociopolitical conscious raps were launched, as young people of color found a cathartic means of expression by which to describe the conditions of the inner-city – a space largely constructed by those in power. Rap thrived under poverty, police repression, social policy, class, and gender relations (Baker, 1993; Boyd, 1997; Keyes, 2000, 2002; Perkins, 1996; Potter, 1995; Rose, 1994, 2008; Watkins, 1998).

  • ENG 350 Summer12
    ENG 350: THE HISTORY OF HIP-HOP With your host, Dr. Russell A. Potter, a.k.a. Professa RAp Monday - Thursday, 6:30-8:30, Craig-Lee 252 http://350hiphop.blogspot.com/ In its rise to the top of the American popular music scene, Hip-hop has taken on all comers, and issued beatdown after beatdown. Yet how many of its fans today know the origins of the music? Sure, people might have heard something of Afrika Bambaataa or Grandmaster Flash, but how about the Last Poets or Grandmaster CAZ? For this class, we’ve booked a ride on the wayback machine which will take us all the way back to Hip-hop’s precursors, including the Blues, Calypso, Ska, and West African griots. From there, we’ll trace its roots and routes through the ‘parties in the park’ in the late 1970’s, the emergence of political Hip-hop with Public Enemy and KRS-One, the turn towards “gangsta” style in the 1990’s, and on into the current pantheon of rappers. Along the way, we’ll take a closer look at the essential elements of Hip-hop culture, including Breaking (breakdancing), Writing (graffiti), and Rapping, with a special look at the past and future of turntablism and digital sampling. Our two required textbook are Bradley and DuBois’s Anthology of Rap (Yale University Press) and Neal and Forman’s That's the Joint: The Hip-Hop Studies Reader are both available at the RIC campus store. Films shown in part or in whole will include Bamboozled, Style Wars, The Freshest Kids: A History of the B-Boy, Wild Style, and Zebrahead; there will is also a course blog with a discussion board and a wide array of links to audio and text resources at http://350hiphop.blogspot.com/ WRITTEN WORK: An informal response to our readings and listenings is due each week on the blog.

  • J Dilla and the Future of Humanity by Kyle Etges the First Time One Listens
    J Dilla and the Future of Humanity By Kyle Etges The first time one listens to the track “Swamp Thing” by Hiatus Kaiyote, your first thought might be “what the fuck am I listening to?” But then a weird thing happens: the groove envelops you, and for reasons you can’t quite articulate, your bobbing your head right along with Perrin Moss. This track, among many others from the last 20 years, is a perfect example of the wobble beat: a beat that feels like it’s constantly teetering on a complete trainwreck, and yet it gives us one of the deepest grooves found in all modern music. How can something so volatile be so much fun to listen to? The “wobble” or “Dilla” beat is not only an obvious indication of progressive neo-soul, but also a sign of a shift in our tastes in music, and our reactions to the progress of humanity itself. The wobble beat itself can be hard to describe, but as we delve further into its inner workings, it will become evident that that’s the whole idea. This drum beat is usually credited to J Dilla (aka James Dewitt Yancey), a hugely influential music producer from Detroit until his untimely death in 2006. During his career, J Dee worked with the likes of Erykah Badu, D’Angelo, The Pharcyde, and many many more, and has had a seminal impact on hip hop and neo-soul music in the 21st century. At the time of this writing, I am not sure of the specific session drummer who first laid down this complicated beat.

HIP-HOP’S DIVERSITY AND MISPERCEPTIONS by Andrew Cashman A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for a Degree with Honors (Anthropology) The Honors College University of Maine August 2020 Advisory Committee: Joline Blais, Associate Professor of New Media, Advisor Kreg Ettenger, Associate Professor of Anthropology Christine Beitl, Associate Professor of Anthropology Sharon Tisher, Lecturer, School of Economics and Honors Stuart Marrs, Professor of Music 2020 Andrew Cashman All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The misperception that hip-hop is a single entity that glorifies wealth and the selling of drugs, and promotes misogynistic attitudes towards women, as well as advocating gang violence is one that supports a mainstream perspective towards the marginalized.1 The prevalence of drug dealing and drug use is not a picture of inherent actions of members in the hip-hop community, but a reflection of economic opportunities that those in poverty see as a means towards living well. Some artists may glorify that, but other artists either decry it or offer it as a tragic reality. In hip-hop trends build off of music and music builds off of trends in a cyclical manner.
