Considering the Worthy Sacrifice Hip Hop Artists May Need to Make to Reclaim the Heart of Hip Hop, Its People
It’s Not Me, It’s You: Considering the Worthy Sacrifice Hip Hop Artists May Need to Make to Reclaim the Heart of Hip Hop, its People by Sharieka Shontae Botex April, 2019 Director of Thesis: Dr. Wendy Sharer Major Department: English The origins of Hip Hop evidence that the art form was intended to provide more than music to listen to, but instead offer art that delivers messages on behalf of people who were not always listened to. My thesis offers an analysis of Jay-Z and J. Cole’s lyrical content and adds to an ongoing discussion of the potential Hip Hop artists have to be effective leaders for the Black community, whose lyrical content can be used to make positive change in society, and how this ability at times can be compromised by creating content that doesn’t evidence this potential or undermines it. Along with this, my work highlights how some of Jay-Z and J. Cole’s lyrical content exhibits their use of some rhetorical strategies and techniques used in social movements and their use of some African American rhetorical practices and strategies. In addition to this, I acknowledge and discuss points in scholarship that connect with my discussion of their lyrical content, or that aided me in proposing what they could consider for future lyrical content. I analyzed six Jay-Z songs and six J. Cole songs, including one song from their earliest released studio album and one from their most recently released studio album. I examined their lyrical content to document responses to the following questions: What issues and topics are discussed in the lyrics; Is money referenced? If so, how; Is there a message of uplift or unity?; What does the artist speak out against?; What lifestyles and habits are promoted?; What guidance is provided?; What problems are mentioned? and What solutions are offered? In my thesis, I explored Jay-Z and J. -

Hip-Hop Realness and the White Performer Mickey Hess
Critical Studies in Media Communication Vol. 22, No. 5, December 2005, pp. 372Á/389 Hip-hop Realness and the White Performer Mickey Hess Hip-hop’s imperatives of authenticity are tied to its representations of African-American identity, and white rap artists negotiate their place within hip-hop culture by responding to this African-American model of the authentic. This article examines the strategies used by white artists such as Vanilla Ice, Eminem, and the Beastie Boys to establish their hip- hop legitimacy and to confront rap music’s representations of whites as socially privileged and therefore not credible within a music form where credibility is often negotiated through an artist’s experiences of social struggle. The authenticating strategies of white artists involve cultural immersion, imitation, and inversion of the rags-to-riches success stories of black rap stars. Keywords: Hip-hop; Rap; Whiteness; Racial Identity; Authenticity; Eminem Although hip-hop music has become a global force, fans and artists continue to frame hip-hop as part of African-American culture. In his discussion of Canadian, Dutch, and French rap Adam Krims (2000) noted the prevailing image of African-American hip-hop as ‘‘real’’ hip-hop.1 African-American artists often extend this image of the authentic to frame hip-hop as a black expressive culture facing appropriation by a white-controlled record industry. This concept of whiteÁ/black interaction has led white artists either to imitate the rags-to-riches narratives of black artists, as Vanilla Ice did in the fabricated biography he released to the press in 1990, or to invert these narratives, as Eminem does to frame his whiteness as part of his struggle to succeed as a hip-hop artist. -

How Urban Planners Can Learn from Hip-Hop Music
More than noise: Employing hip-hop music to inform community development practice By Justin Hollander, PhD Associate Professor Department of Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning Tufts University 97 Talbot Avenue Medford, Massachusetts 02155 USA tel: (617) 627-3394 fax: (617) 627-3377 email: [email protected] http://www.tufts.edu/~jholla03 Jennifer Quinn email: [email protected] Abstract: The quality of information which a community development professional has access to will limit her ability to understand the issues, concerns, and desires of a community. Artistic expression, specifically hip-hop music, can provide a novel level of understanding of community dynamics to community development practice and research. This research established a methodology that would enable practitioners and researchers to effectively extract relevant details embedded within hip-hop music. We employed a microanalysis approach to study 100 hip-hop songs to extract the relevant themes and codes. We found key relationships in the music between the artists and how they relate to their physical surroundings. Keywords: community art; hip-hop; microanalysis; practitioners 1 More than noise: Employing hip-hop music to inform community development practice Sometimes the best way for a community development professional to understand what is happening in a community is to pay attention to the kind of music community members are listening to. Community development revolves around many complex, multifaceted problems, and gaining insight into those problems—what ordinary people in a community are facing—can be daunting. Conventionally, government censuses, academic journals, anecdotal observations, and real estate trends are used to establish a base understanding of an issue or problem facing a community. -
