More information about this work at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu/yc_pubs/251 Discover additional works at: https://academicworks.cuny.edu This work is made publicly available by the City University of New York (CUNY). Contact: [email protected] Choutouts: Language contact and US-Latin hip hop on YouTube Matt Garley This paper presents a corpus-sociolinguistic analysis of lyrics and com- ments from videos for four US-Latinx hip hop songs on YouTube. A ‘post-varieties’ (Seargeant and Tagg 2011) analysis of the diversity and hybridity of linguistic production in the YouTube comments finds the notions of codemeshing and plurilingualism (Canagarajah 2009) useful in characterizing the language practices of the Chicanx community of the Southwestern US, while a focus on the linguistic practices of com- menters on Northeastern ‘core’ artists’ tracks validate the use of named language varieties in examining language attitudes and ideologies as they emerge in commenters’ discussions. Finally, this article advances the sociolinguistics of orthography (Sebba 2007) by examining the social meanings of a vast array of creative and novel orthographic forms, which often blur the supposed lines between language varieties. Keywords: Latinx, hip hop, orthography, codemeshing, language contact, language attitudes, language ideologies, computer-mediated discourse.

Since anti-gunners are always saying “no one wants to take your guns away” or they want me to live under their take of “sensible gun laws” (neither of which I believe to be prudent, sensible or anything remotely truthful) I figured I would go to the NRA’s Institute of Legislative Action to find out who are the people that want to be sure that I can’t defend my home or go shooting my .22 in the woods (both heinous acts of human behavior to be sure). So, hats off the the NRA-ILA team for compiling this list. Here is what the NRA-ILA team had to say. The following organizations have lent monetary, grassroots or some other type of direct support to anti-gun organizations. In many instances, these organizations lent their name in support of specific campaigns to pass anti-gun legislation such as the March 1995 HCI “Campaign to Protect Sane Gun Laws.” Many of these organizations were listed as “Campaign Partners,” for having pledged to fight any efforts to repeal the Brady Act and the Clinton “assault weapons” ban.

Die Mitbegründer des Nu Metal sind für sieben Shows im Juni 2018 hierzulande bestätigt. Das Quintett um Frontmann Fred Durst wird am 20. Juni 2018 in der Westfalenhalle in Dortmund zu sehen sein. Der einzige Auftritt in NRW! LIMP BIZKIT gehören zu den innovativsten Bands ihres Genres und sind mit über 40 Millionen verkauften Tonträgern eine der erfolgreichsten dazu. Seit ihrer Gründung 1994 in Jacksonville/Florida beeinflussen LIMP BIZKIT im Laufe der letzten beiden Jahrzehnte eine Unzahl von Nachwuchsmusikern. Ihr innovativer, mitreißender Mix aus peitschenden Rhythmen, massiven Gitarrenwänden und funkigen HipHop-Elementen, der Nu Metal, ist eine Neuinterpretation der Crossover-Musik aus den frühen 90ern. Damals gründet Bandleader Fred Durst mit dem Bassisten Sam Rivers und John Otto am Schlagzeug sein erstes Musikprojekt, einige Monate später stößt Gitarrist Wes Borland hinzu. Mithilfe der befreundeten Band Korn touren sie mit den Deftones und House Of Pain. Von letzteren steigt DJ Lethal von House Of Pain ein. Das im Juli 1997 veröffentlichtes Debüt „Three Dollar Bill, Y’all“ wird mit über zwei Millionen Verkäufen zum überwältigenden Erfolg. Die Nachfolger „Significant Other“ (1999) und „Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water“ (2000) verkaufen sich zusammen über 16 Millionen Mal, es folgen drei Grammy-Nominierungen, die Singlehits wie „Nookie“, „Rollin’“, „Take A Look Around“ oder die Coverversion von George Michaels „Faith“ untermauern ihre Stilbreite und Experimentierfreude.
