HIP-HOP’S DIVERSITY AND MISPERCEPTIONS by Andrew Cashman A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for a Degree with Honors (Anthropology) The Honors College University of Maine August 2020 Advisory Committee: Joline Blais, Associate Professor of New Media, Advisor Kreg Ettenger, Associate Professor of Anthropology Christine Beitl, Associate Professor of Anthropology Sharon Tisher, Lecturer, School of Economics and Honors Stuart Marrs, Professor of Music 2020 Andrew Cashman All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The misperception that hip-hop is a single entity that glorifies wealth and the selling of drugs, and promotes misogynistic attitudes towards women, as well as advocating gang violence is one that supports a mainstream perspective towards the marginalized.1 The prevalence of drug dealing and drug use is not a picture of inherent actions of members in the hip-hop community, but a reflection of economic opportunities that those in poverty see as a means towards living well. Some artists may glorify that, but other artists either decry it or offer it as a tragic reality. In hip-hop trends build off of music and music builds off of trends in a cyclical manner.

  • Music Preferences: a Gateway to Where? by Delia Regan
    Music Preferences: A Gateway to Where? Delia Regan Anna Maria College Author’s Note Delia Regan (‘21), Music Therapy Honor Student, Anna Maria College This thesis was prepared for HON 490-01 Seniors Honors Seminar under the instruction of Professor Travis Maruska, Associate Professor of Humanities, Anna Maria College. Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed by electronic mail. Contact: [email protected], [email protected] ​ ​ ​ 1 Abstract This paper discusses the impact of peer pressure on shared music preferences which was conducted through a survey and group interviews. The information on the development of music preferences provides the reader with background on how the music preference process begins. Peer pressure is also discussed from early childhood into adulthood. The solidification of music preferences happens around the same age as college-aged individuals, which overlaps with a decrease in the impact of peer pressure. The research focuses on college-aged individuals who completed a survey on their music preferences in individual and group settings, and then were put into groups to determine if a social setting would influence their responses to the same questions. Overall, a distinct relationship between peer pressure and music preference could not be made. Keywords: College-Aged, Group Cohesion, Music, Music Preference, Peer Pressure, ​ Social Consequence 2 Music Preferences What does music taste say about a person? Music is usually a part of daily life, whether people are aware of it or not. It can help people express themselves, regulate their emotions, and, when used clinically, can help a person regain the ability to walk. Music is powerful, but what draws people to it? Studies have been done to try and determine why people are attracted to music, and they have created multiple theories trying to answer this question.

  • Talented ASAP Rocky Stuck in a Rut
    "ALLA" Album Review: Talented ASAP Rocky Stuck In A Rut Author : gwgras Coming out of Harlem, New York is Asap Rocky. His road to hip hop stardom isn’t anything new: from a poor family, dealt drugs, saw death at an early age–began rapping–things happened. That’s not to belittle his journey – at all, but one wouldn’t get that “defeated while coming up” tone if they listened to Rocky’s music. Some would call him more of a modern-day hippie–much like Wiz Khalifa and others. He struck a $3 million dollar deal because of his mixtape success and has capitalized releasing hits like “F’n Problems” and “Wild For the Night” from his first album “Long. Live. ASAP.” His follow up album “ALLA (At Long Last ASAP)” comes with the pressure of capitalizing off his commercial success. The album starts off perfectly with “Holy Ghost.” In terms of delivery and tone, Rocky sounds more like T.I. than anything else, but delivers some insightful lines: “Satan giving out deals, finna own these rappers / the game is full of slaves and they mostly rappers / you sold your soul first, then your homies after / Let’s show these stupid field n*****s they can own they masters.” Rocky is a young business mind and finds it weird how some who have been in the game longer than him still get screwed over with music industry politics. The laid back “Excuse Me” shows Rocky delivering a laid back flow in which he rattles off a perfect rhyme scheme.
