    An Autoethnography of Scottish Hip-Hop: Identity, Locality, Outsiderdom and Social Commentary

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repository@Napier An autoethnography of Scottish hip-hop: identity, locality, outsiderdom and social commentary Dave Hook A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Edinburgh Napier University, for the award of Doctor of Philosophy June 2018 Declaration This critical appraisal is the result of my own work and includes nothing that is the outcome of work done in collaboration except where specifically indicated in the text. It has not been previously submitted, in part or whole, to any university or institution for any degree, diploma, or other qualification. Signed:_________________________________________________________ Date:______5th June 2018 ________________________________________ Dave Hook BA PGCert FHEA Edinburgh i Abstract The published works that form the basis of this PhD are a selection of hip-hop songs written over a period of six years between 2010 and 2015. The lyrics for these pieces are all written by the author and performed with hip-hop group Stanley Odd. The songs have been recorded and commercially released by a number of independent record labels (Circular Records, Handsome Tramp Records and A Modern Way Recordings) with worldwide digital distribution licensed to Fine Tunes, and physical sales through Proper Music Distribution. Considering the poetics of Scottish hip-hop, the accompanying critical reflection is an autoethnographic study, focused on rap lyricism, identity and performance. The significance of the writing lies in how the pieces collectively explore notions of identity, ‘outsiderdom’, politics and society in a Scottish context. Further to this, the pieces are noteworthy in their interpretation of US hip-hop frameworks and structures, adapted and reworked through Scottish culture, dialect and perspective.

    Lone Bellow – Episode Transcript Matt: for Those Who Are Unaware of Steven Pressfield, Pressfield Is an Author of a Book Called the War of Art

    THE RESISTANCE – EPISODE 18 Zach Williams of The Lone Bellow – Episode Transcript Matt: For those who are unaware of Steven Pressfield, Pressfield is an author of a book called The War of Art. It’s actually sort of our source inspirational material for the podcast, so Zach I’d love just to read a couple lines and have you riff on that, and we’ll see where it goes over the next few minutes. So Pressfield says this: “Most of us have two lives: the life we live, and the unlived life within us. And between the two stands the resistance.” Zach, I’d love to know for you, what form resistance is taking, on the verge of another album release, or even personally in other creative ways, whatever that strikes you. Zach: I think some of my base levels, I struggle with people-pleasing, and that can be with my band, that can be during a show. It’s something that I have to be aware of. So I think I needed to figure out some things going on inside me that would easily lead me to making something that I didn’t want to make, once it was all said and done, and not getting carried away just in the process of creating the music. Every single sound that you record, every single emotion that you try to capture, it all can be tied back in to one thing in someone’s soul. For me, that can easily be some sort of fear. I started writing music in 2003, and it was a very cathartic thing.
