    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.

  • Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Fictional Black Blues Figure: Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in English by Kimberly Renee Mack 2015 © Copyright by Kimberly Renee Mack 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Fictional Black Blues Figure: Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention by Kimberly Renee Mack Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Richard A Yarborough, Chair My dissertation examines representations of black American blues musicians in contemporary American fiction, drama, and popular music, and it argues that blues music can be examined as a narrative art rooted in the tradition of fictionalized autobiographical self- fashioning. I contend that the contemporary, multi-racial, literary and musical characters in my project who participate in so-called “authentic” blues expression create, sometimes consciously and sometimes unwittingly, a fiction on top of a fiction. This project questions the belief held by many blues scholars, critics, and fans that blues music is a racially essentialized form instead of a narrative tradition made possible through carefully constructed autobiographical and biographical fictions. ii My project makes two important interventions into traditional discussions of blues production and the representations of blues figures in 20th- and 21st-century American literature. First, it destabilizes racial, socio-cultural, temporal, and gendered blues tropes by shifting blues expression from an innate skill to a storytelling art form through which its makers invent themselves. Second, this study allows for a different, interdisciplinary approach to autobiographical and biographical expression.

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.

    “We Shall Go Forth”: A Musical Analysis of the Women’s Music Movement, 1969-1985 By Jessica Leann Freyermuth M.M., Kansas State University, 2010 B.M., Kansas State University, 2008 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Musicology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chair: Roberta Freund Schwartz Colin Roust Alan Street Ketty Wong Katie Batza Date Defended: The dissertation committee for Jessica Freyermuth certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: “We Shall Go Forth”: A Musical Analysis of the Women’s Music Movement, 1969-1985 Chair: Roberta Freund Schwartz Date Approved: ii Abstract In the wake of the social and political movements that defined the 1960s, the women’s music movement emerged as a means to cultivate an outlet for young lesbian musicians who saw themselves as equal to their straight male counterparts, but were unwilling to compromise their musical integrity in order to perform on major labels. The movement became a social experience, as women’s music artists would tour coffee shops, college campuses, and feminist bookstores to perform their woman-identified woman music to all-female audiences. The concerts eventually grew into larger events, such as the National Women’s Music Festival and the Michigan Womyn’s Music Festival, which offered women of myriad backgrounds a safe space to gather as friends, family, and lovers. Within this cultural movement were musicians Margie Adam, Meg Christian, Alix Dobkin, Kay Gardner, Holly Near, Linda Tillery, Mary Watkins, and Cris Williamson.

    Summer Reading US Studies: History School Year: 2020-21 US Studies: History Summer Reading Summer 2020 Dear Incoming Juniors, In this modern age, literacy requires more than the ability to understand traditional text. Becoming a conscientious, critically thinking, engaged citizen requires the ability to read and interpret the world as text - from historical speeches to music videos, news media to paintings, maps to theater. Over the next year, we will explore U.S. history through a humanities lens, from a variety of perspectives and sources, in order to better understand, critique, and contextualize our present. I look forward to digging into the work with you all in August! To prepare for this course, complete the following summer reading & writing assignment for credit. Assignment What does it mean to be an “American”? How have “American” identities changed over time? What is “America?” For this assignment, you will pick ​6-10 “texts” (depending on Regular vs. Honors) ​from the list below which include songs/music videos, speeches, written texts, and images. NOTE: Just because a text is shorter, or an image or song, does not mean it is less complex to read and analyze. Take your time. For each text, type responses to the following questions using ​this template​: ● Whose perspectives do you see emerging from the text? ● How might the author/ creator of this text answer the question “What does it mean to be an American?” ● According to this text, what is America? NOTE: You will submit typed notes ​for credit​ to Google Classroom assignment BEFORE THE FIRST DAY OF CLASS ! For Students Taking Non-Honors US/American History:​ ​6+ total sources At least 4 sources must be written (ie.
