I argue that Pynchon’s engagement with music can not only be understood in terms of its periodizing function but also as an intricate practice of historical and prophetic/proleptic layering.

  • Kendrick Lamar's Collapsing of Hip Hop Realness and Christian Identity
    Linder: Kendrick Lamar’s Collapsing of Hip Hop Realness and Christian Ide Kendrick Lamar’s Collapsing of Hip Hop Realness and Christian Identity Matthew Linder Abstract In Danielle S. Macon’s “To Pimp a Caterpillar: Hip Hop as Vehicle to Spiritual Liberation through the Decolonization of European Ideology” about Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterfly, she identifies Kendrick’s three-step process of liberation for African-Americans through spirituality: exhibition, revelation, and community orientation. I seek to place her analysis of Kendrick’s music within the context of Daniel White Hodge’s exploration of the neo-sacred secular in Hip Hop, a theological concept containing three elements: a belief that God is in all things, viewing life as having good and bad elements, and a rejection of religionism as the only way to God. Firstly, I will explore how Kendrick takes on himself the tropes of Hip Hop and African-American Street life, not to promote their virtues but to subvert them. Secondly, framing Kendrick’s presentation of an alternative identity built on his reframing of two Christian theological concepts: imago dei and identity as found in person and work of Jesus. Lastly, the process through which he bridges the gap between life in poor African-American urban spaces and Christianity to reconstruct Hip Hop realness in terms of sincerity and a common humanity, instead of the artificially-created litmus tests of Hip Hop authenticity. These three elements are then oriented in Kendrick’s music as the spiritual processes through which he strives to liberate himself, Compton, and his African-American community.

  • Mic Checks and Balances: Politically Conscious Hip
    Popping the Question: The Question of Popular Culture Issue 4 – Spring 2015 | www.diffractions.net Mic Checks and Balances: Politically Conscious Hip- Hop’s Engagement with the Kareem R. Muhammad Presidency of Barack Livingstone College - North Carolina Obama Abstract | Hip-hop subculture has long existed as an anti-establishment space that has provided some of U.S. society’s strongest and most unfiltered critiques against the federal government. This adversarial posture has been most effectively communicated by hip-hop MC’s. While far from monolithic, the collective sentiment that has most consistently been communicated to the men residing in The Oval Office has ranged from hostile to ambivalent. The presidential check and balancing inherent to hip-hop has come in a variety of forms over the years through rap music, hip-hop’s most visible element. The election of the nation’s first black president, however, has presented an interesting quandary for the hip-hop nation. On one hand, hip-hop has an obligation to stand up to power. On the other hand, there is also a long standing tradition for hip-hop to mobilize and band together when its members are under attack from outsiders. This article tries to explore the extent that hip-hop artists view Barack Obama as an outsider or an insider. A qualitative content analysis will be conducted of politically conscious rap music in an attempt to find out now that Obama is in the White House, has hip-hop gone soft in its traditional role in challenging White House orthodoxy? The qualitative and quantitative data used here makes it hard to make the case that hip-hop has not gone soft on President Obama in comparison to previous presidents, specifically President George W.

  • Luke Cage (2016) and Religion
    Ken Derry/Daniel White Hodge/Laurel Zwissler/ Stanley Talbert/Matthew J. Cressler/Jon Ivan Gill Bulletproof Love: Luke Cage (2016) and Religion ABSTRACT There are many ways to think about religion and popular culture. One method is to ask where and when we see what might be commonly understood as “religious tradition(s)” explicitly on display. Another is to think about superhero narratives themselves as “religious”, using this term as a conceptual tool for categorizing and thereby better understanding particular dimensions of human experience. This article takes a variety of approaches to understanding religion in relation to the recent tel- evision series LUKE CAGE (Netflix, US 2016). These approaches take their hermeneuti- cal cues from a range of disciplines, including studies of the Bible; Hip Hop; gender; Black Theology; African American religion; and philosophy. The results of this analysis highlight the polysemic nature of popular culture in general, and of superhero stories in particular. Like religious traditions themselves, the show is complex and contradic- tory: it is both progressive and reactionary; emphasizes community and valorizes an individual; critiques and endorses Christianity; subverts and promotes violence. De- pending on the questions asked, LUKE CAGE (2016) provides a range of very different answers. KEYWORDS African American, superhero, violence, Marvel, popular culture, gender, television, Netflix BIOGRAPHIES Ken Derry is Associate Professor, Teaching Stream, in the Department of Historical Studies at the University of Toronto, Canada. His academic work explores the rela- tions between religion and violence, particularly in literature and film. Ken has pub- lished essays on subjects ranging from The Epistle of Barnabas to The Wizard of Oz to the work of Indigenous writer Thomas King to the use of humor in teaching religion.

    VIACOM AS A FIREARM? PROGRESSIVE HIP-HOP LYRICS, THE CONSTRUCTION OF SOCIAL PROBLEMS, AND THE CULTURE INDUSTRY By STEVEN M. JACOBS A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2011 1 © 2011 Steven M. Jacobs 2 To the idea that music . may be more than ―just music‖ 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS It does not require a Ph.D. in sociology to recognize that my completion of this milestone would have been impossible without the love, support, and guidance of some very, very special people. I hope that my successes, achievements, and progression to this pinnacle of my educational career stand as tributes to those who have inspired and assisted me along my journey. I would like to use this space to mention some of these people. First, I would like to acknowledge the entire Jacobs family. My incomparable, amazing parents, Ken and Madeline, deserve the most special of recognition. It is impossible for me to adequately convey here my appreciation for the opportunities they provided for me. My completion of a Ph.D. program is a credit to their love, faith, and support. My siblings, Alan, Jessica, and Michael, are my three life-long best friends, and they continue to challenge, strengthen, and inspire me. My grandparents, Bernie, Fay, Gil, and Rose, warrant special acknowledgement for the foundations they have built and for being living examples of the importance of love and family. I have been privileged to learn from some incredible teachers who over the years inspired me to pursue this particular career path.
