  • In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence
    In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Crystal Joesell Radford, BA Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2011 Thesis Committee: Professor Beverly Gordon, Advisor Professor Adrienne Dixson Copyrighted by Crystal Joesell Radford 2011 Abstract This study critically analyzes rap through an interdisciplinary framework. The study explains rap‟s socio-cultural history and it examines the multi-generational, classed, racialized, and gendered identities in rap. Rap music grew out of hip-hop culture, which has – in part – earned it a garnering of criticism of being too “violent,” “sexist,” and “noisy.” This criticism became especially pronounced with the emergence of the rap subgenre dubbed “gangsta rap” in the 1990s, which is particularly known for its sexist and violent content. Rap music, which captures the spirit of hip-hop culture, evolved in American inner cities in the early 1970s in the South Bronx at the wake of the Civil Rights, Black Nationalist, and Women‟s Liberation movements during a new technological revolution. During the 1970s and 80s, a series of sociopolitical conscious raps were launched, as young people of color found a cathartic means of expression by which to describe the conditions of the inner-city – a space largely constructed by those in power. Rap thrived under poverty, police repression, social policy, class, and gender relations (Baker, 1993; Boyd, 1997; Keyes, 2000, 2002; Perkins, 1996; Potter, 1995; Rose, 1994, 2008; Watkins, 1998).

  • 50 Cent to Join Eminem Shade 45 Channel Shade 45 Channel
    50 Cent To Join Eminem Shade 45 Channel Shade 45 Channel "G Unit Radio" to Air All Day Saturdays With a Lineup of DJs and Shows NEW YORK – February 24, 2005 – SIRIUS Satellite Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI) announced today that multi-platinum artist 50 Cent will create and host exclusive programming on Shade 45, the new uncensored hip-hop radio channel co-produced by SIRIUS and Eminem. 50 Cent will oversee G Unit Radio, which will take over Shade 45 all day on Saturdays with an innovative mix of shows and DJs produced by his own DJ, Whoo Kid. “I’m bringing my A-game to SIRIUS,”said 50 Cent. “G Unit Radio is gonna blow up on Shade 45.” “Eminem and 50 Cent are two of the biggest names in hip-hop today" said SIRIUS President of Sports and Entertainment Scott Greenstein. “On Shade 45, 50 Cent will bring G Unit’s world to SIRIUS listeners.” SIRIUS launched Shade 45, the uncensored, commercial-free hip-hop music channel created by Eminem, Shady Records, Interscope Records and SIRIUS in October 2004. The channel also features other high profile figures in the world of hip-hop, including Eminem’s own DJ Green Lantern and Radio/Mixshow DJ of the Year Clinton Sparks. The channel also regularly features celebrity guests. 50 Cent, one of the most notorious figures in rap music, is also one of its most successful. His 2003 debut album, Get Rich or Die Tryin’, has sold more than 11 million copies. He has launched a successful G Unit clothing and footwear line, and can also be seen in an upcoming Jim Sheridan film, which is reported to be a semi-autobiographical film based on his ascension from drug dealer to superstar.

  • 50-Cent Debt Test” History of the “50-Cent Debt Test”
    Overview Of Proposed Legislation To Modify The “50-Cent Debt Test” History of the “50-Cent Debt Test” Voters typically approve an “Unlimited Tax” to repay Texas school district bonds authorized in a bond election. However, the “50-Cent Debt Test” (the “Test”) was enacted in year 1991 (20-years ago) which is currently incorporated within Chapter 45 of the Texas Education Code. As implemented, the Test essentially limits a school district’s maximum Interest & Sinking Fund (“I&S”) tax rate to 50.0 cents, equating to a “debt limit” of 7% of a district’s taxable assessed valuation. Prior to the “50-Cent Debt Test,” the “debt limit” for school districts was 10% of taxable assessed valuation. Prior to a new bond sale, the Test requires a school district to demonstrate to the Attorney General its new and existing bonds may be repaid from a maximum I&S tax rate of 50.0 cents or less. The Subchapter B portion of a district’s Tier I State funds, Existing Debt Allotment (“EDA”) and Instructional Facilities Allotment (“IFA”) State funds can be pledged to the repayment of bonds to comply with the Test. Once pledged, Tier I State funds must be used for bond payments prior to a district levying an I&S tax rate above 50.0 cents. During the 81st Legislative Session, Rep. Aycock (Killeen) filed H.B. 3697 to amend the “50-Cent Debt Test.” H.B. 3697 garnered support from the Equity Center, Fast Growth School Coalition, Texas School Coalition, TASA, TASB, the Municipal Advisory Council of Texas, industry participants and numerous school districts.

  • September 4-6 Riverfront Park & City Island
    SEPTEMBER 4-6 RIVERFRONT PARK & CITY ISLAND HARRISBURGPA.GOV/KIPONA | #KIPONAHBG WHAT IS KIPONA? This annual Labor-Day weekend celebration began in 1916 when the Harrisburg Dock Street Dam and the iconic river steps were completed. To celebrate this achievement and other improvements made since 1902 through the City Beautiful Movement, the City decided to rebrand what had been a water carnival on the river in prior years. After soliciting names through a city-wide competition, “Kipona” was chosen. An analysis of the name Kipona, which is said to mean in North American Indian terms “on sparkling water” is translated to “Na” meaning “to be on,” “Po” meaning “waters” and “Ki” meaning “sparkling or bright.

  • The Influence of Rap/Hip-Hop Music: a Mixed-Method Analysis by Gretchen Cundiff — 71
    The Influence of Rap/Hip-Hop Music: A Mixed-Method Analysis by Gretchen Cundiff — 71 The Influence of Rap/Hip-Hop Music: A Mixed-Method Analysis on Audience Perceptions of Misogynistic Lyrics and the Issue of Domestic Violence Gretchen Cundiff* Strategic Communications Elon University Abstract Using a qualitative content analysis and online survey, this research examined how college students perceive and respond to the portrayal of women when exposed to misogynistic lyrics. Based on cultivation theory, this study analyzed the lyrical content of popular rap and hip-hop songs (n=20) on Billboard’s “Hot 100” chart between 2000 and 2010. Song lyrics were classified into one or more of the following coding categories: demeaning language, rape/sexual assault, sexual conquest and physical violence. Themes of power over, objectification of and violence against women were identified as prevalent throughout the content analysis sample. Survey results indicated a positive correlation between misogynous thinking and rap/hip-hop consumption. I. Introduction This study examined the culture of rap/hip-hop music and how misogynistic lyrical messages influ- enced listeners’ attitudes toward intimate partner violence. Adams and Fuller (2006) define misogyny as the “hatred or disdain of women” and “an ideology that reduces women to objects for men’s ownership, use, or abuse” (p. 939). Popular American hip-hop and rap artists, such as Eminem, Ludacris and Ja Rule, have increasingly depicted women as objects of violence or male domination by communicating that “submission is a desirable trait in a woman” (Stankiewicz & Rosselli, 2008, p. 581). These songs condone male hegemony in which “men find the domination and exploitation of women and other men to be not only expected, but actu- ally demanded” (Prushank, 2007, p.
