  • Introduction to Global Music the Center for European
    Introduction to Global Music The Center for European Studies (CES) and other Area Studies Centers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are collaborating with the student-run radio station WXYC in the production of the Global Music Show. This monthly hour-long program features music from a particular area of the world combined with commentary by guest scholars, who discuss the music played in the context of the culture and history of the region that produced it. To support cultural learning, CES has created student listening guides, pre- and post-listening discussion questions, and resource links for each of their Global Music programs. The programs run about one hour, and so listening and discussion would work well for block schedule classes. If your class runs the traditional hour length, you can have the class listen over two periods, and then discuss. Alternatively, you can assign the listening for homework, and hold the discussion during class time. Music can teach us much about a culture that never appears in a textbook. Use these programs and teaching resources to connect your students with European cultures in a dynamic, new way. Encourage students to continue their exploration of Europe through music. Nederhop: Hip Hop from the Netherlands Dan Thornton and Lauren Brenner Pre-Listening Questions Ask students to think about these questions before you listen to the program. Write their answers on the board. 1. What do you think of first when you think of the Netherlands? 2. In this program, you’re going to hear hip hop by Dutch musicians.

  • Hou Het Echt! Authenticity in the Dutch Hip-‐Hop Scene from the Point Of
    Hou het echt! Authenticity in the Dutch hip-hop scene from the point of view of A&R-personnel Tim van Meurs Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication Erasmus University Rotterdam 362905 [email protected] Supervisor: Dr. Laura Braden Second reader: Prof.dr. Koen van Eijck June 8th, 2015 Foreword “You are trying to apply science to something that isn’t!” With those words, interviewee and godfather of Nederhop Kees de Koning summarized quite well what I have been doing for the last couple of months. Ambitious as I was at the start of the master thesis process, I figured I could interview some key behind-the-scenes figures of the Dutch hip-hop scene without too much trouble. At times, I wished I had listened to those who told me to pick another topic because people from the music industry are generally too busy to conduct a, for them, uninteresting interview. But this thesis now lies in front of you, finished and well, and ready to be read. But it did not become what it is now without any problems. Problems that I did not solve by myself. So for that, I would like to thank the people who guided me through my breakdowns, helped me get further in the process, and supplied me with all sorts of resources to go on; from encouragement, to food, to the opportunity for interviews. First I want to thank my interviewees, for without them I literally would not have been able to make this thesis. So thanks Farid, for being my first interviewee and referring me to others, and thanks Angelo, Jimmy, Pim, Gaétan, Tim, Amier, Jaap, Casper, Vincent and Kees for giving me some of your precious time.

Inleiding “Rap became a mainstream form of popular culture in the mid-1980s. Research on rap music suggests that the music’s increasingly global appeal cannot be attributed only to the ‘shock’ value which some observers link with the music’s appeal for young people; rather, it is argued, the longevity of rap’s appeal for young people is firmly linked with the way in which rap can be used as a means of engaging with and expressing dissatisfaction at the more restrictive features of everyday life in globally diffuse social settings.” (Bennett 2001, 88/9) Deze publicatie is het resultaat van een onderzoek naar de codes en

  • Had Ik Maar Een Tijdmachine I Wish I Had a Time Machine
    Had ik maar een tijdmachine I wish I had a time machine NEDERHOP IN THE NETHERLANDS BETWEEN 1995 AND 2015 STUDENT NAME: LYSANNE JANSEN STUDENT NUMBER: 415955 SUPERVISOR: DR. S. VAN GINHOVEN CULTURAL ECONOMICS AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP ERASMUS SCHOOL OF HISTORY, CULTURE AND COMMUNICATION ERASMUS UNIVERSITY ROTTERDAM MASTER THESIS JUNE 8, 2016 Had ik maar een tijdmachine I wish I had a time machine Abstract A quantitative content analysis on Nederhop records within music charts is used to discover how Nederhop has developed over time and what its current situation is. By investigating the presence of Nederhop records on chart lists based on radio airplay, record sales, downloads and streaming data it is measured whether Nederhop has gained institutional recognition and popularity over the period 1995 to 2015. The research shows it took almost ten years before Nederhop records were able to reach a wide audience on a regular base. However, this applies more to the Nederhop records that were sold physically, downloaded or streamed, rather than the Nederhop records that received airplay by the radio institutions. Although Nederhop records that used styles as Old Skool or Hardcore rap also did reach a wider audience, they mostly disappeared from the charts over time, which led to the charts representing mostly crossover Nederhop records. Keywords: Nederhop; popularity; institutionalization; music charts; content analysis Acknowledgements For the time being this will be the final product of my academic career. Within this program I was able to link two of my interests, namely the world of arts and how it operates within the economy, next to how each person and organization acts on certain values that are sometimes hard to connect to those of others.

  • Hard Work Pays Off
    Hard Work Pays Off The popularity of Dutch hip-hop/rap in the 21st Century Master’s Thesis Cultural Economics and Entrepreneurship Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication Erasmus University Rotterdam Student name: Renee Pothof Student number: 474678 Course number: CC4150 Thesis supervisor: Dr. Hans Abbing Second reader: Sophie Jacobs (PhD) 12-06-2018 Hard Work Pays Off Abstract Dutch hip-hop/rap (Nederhop) seems to have become more popular in the Netherlands in the recent years. However, no scientific research about whether Nederhop indeed became more popular and successful and what the reasons behind this popularity and success are has been conducted yet. To fill up on this gap, this research examines if Nederhop indeed became more popular in the Netherlands in recent years and what the reason or reasons are that Nederhop has become this important in the Dutch music industry and this omnipresent in the Dutch music charts. The research methods are threefold and consist of a chart analysis of three yearly music charts from 1989 onwards, semi-structured interviews with N = 3 people working in the Nederhop music industry, and a survey distributed to N = 254 consumers of (Dutch) hip-hop/rap. Data from the music charts, data from the interviews, and data from the survey show that indeed Dutch hip-hop/rap has become more popular in the Netherlands over the last few years. The research shows that there are five possible explanations for this popularity and success: the ability to distribute music more easily because of technological changes, the availability of information about the genre, positive and negative media attention to the genre, changes in the Dutch culture, and internal changes of the music.
