Currently, there is a much larger burden for the independent artist to bear in regards to producing and marketing their own music, and for many this seems like a mountain too tall to climb.

  • BROCKHAMPTON: Social Advocacy and Diversity in Rap Music
    Volume 9 Issue 1 (2020) AP Research BROCKHAMPTON: Social Advocacy and Diversity in Rap Music Ndidi Opara1 1Lake Washington High School, Kirkland, WA, USA ABSTRACT BROCKHAMPTON is a diverse, multiracial rap group that has recently garnered rapidly increasing popularity and influence in the rap industry. Because of this, I wanted to determine if the popularity of the group’s SATURATION trilogy was affected by the content matter they addressed and how that intersected with the American color line in music marketing. With the research question, “To what extent does the race of a BROCKHAMPTON member and the advocacy they utilize, whether it be pro-social or anti-social advocacy examined through the usage of corresponding social themes, influence the popularity of a given song from BROCKHAMPTON’s SATURATION trilogy?”, this study found that it was influenced to a minor extent, with no strong correlation found between race and social themes dis- cussed, or between popularity and the dominant thematic category of a song. Context I have always struggled with the stigma on that rap is an aggressive, violent, and rageful genre. When I listen to rap, I hear social themes and messages that are underneath the sound of the music. However, I have realized that people often do not hear the same messages I do. I also realized that people do not choose to interpret rap music the same way I do. I realized that I had forgot that the perception of rap as a multi-layered genre is not one that often comes to the untrained ear. Along with this, I noticed that media and the academic world often discards the positive, advocating side of Hip-Hop.

  • Upending the “Racial Death-Wish”: Black Gay Liberation and the Culture of Black Homophobia
    UPENDING THE “RACIAL DEATH-WISH”: BLACK GAY LIBERATION AND THE CULTURE OF BLACK HOMOPHOBIA A Thesis presented to the Faculty of California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in History by Kailyn Pope June 2021 © 2021 Kailyn Pope ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii COMMITTEE MEMBERSHIP TITLE: Upending the “Racial Death-Wish”: Black Gay Liberation and the Culture of Black Homophobia AUTHOR: Kailyn Pope DATE SUBMITTED: June 2021 COMMITTEE CHAIR: Andrew Morris, Ph.D. Professor of History COMMITTEE MEMBER: Kathleen Cairns, Ph.D. Lecturer Emeritus of History COMMITTEE MEMBER: Thomas Trice, Ph.D. Associate Professor of History iii ABSTRACT Upending the “Racial Death-Wish”: Black Gay Liberation and the Culture of Black Homophobia Kailyn Pope This thesis analyzes the origin and impact of Black homophobia found in activist spaces of mid- to late-twentieth-century American society. Black gay Americans were subjected to intersecting forms of systemic and cultural oppression that were exceedingly hard to escape due to both the homophobia in Black spaces and the racism in gay spaces. Black gay activists and artists thus had to create their own avenues of expression where they and others could fully embrace what it meant to be Black and gay. This work utilizes a Black feminist framework to explore the roots of Black homophobia and how this type of bigotry was able to so deeply infiltrate Black activist spaces like the Civil Rights Movement and the Black Panther Party. Black homophobia originated as a response to White supremacist domination of the Black body, and was able to spread through the community for generations through paths such as hypermasculinity, the Black church, and misogynoir.
