Williams, Hipness, Hybridity, and Neo-Bohemian Hip-Hop
HIPNESS, HYBRIDITY, AND “NEO-BOHEMIAN” HIP-HOP: RETHINKING EXISTENCE IN THE AFRICAN DIASPORA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Maxwell Lewis Williams August 2020 © 2020 Maxwell Lewis Williams HIPNESS, HYBRIDITY, AND “NEO-BOHEMIAN” HIP-HOP: RETHINKING EXISTENCE IN THE AFRICAN DIASPORA Maxwell Lewis Williams Cornell University 2020 This dissertation theorizes a contemporary hip-hop genre that I call “neo-bohemian,” typified by rapper Kendrick Lamar and his collective, Black Hippy. I argue that, by reclaiming the origins of hipness as a set of hybridizing Black cultural responses to the experience of modernity, neo- bohemian rappers imagine and live out liberating ways of being beyond the West’s objectification and dehumanization of Blackness. In turn, I situate neo-bohemian hip-hop within a history of Black musical expression in the United States, Senegal, Mali, and South Africa to locate an “aesthetics of existence” in the African diaspora. By centering this aesthetics as a unifying component of these musical practices, I challenge top-down models of essential diasporic interconnection. Instead, I present diaspora as emerging primarily through comparable responses to experiences of paradigmatic racial violence, through which to imagine radical alternatives to our anti-Black global society. Overall, by rethinking the heuristic value of hipness as a musical and lived Black aesthetic, the project develops an innovative method for connecting the aesthetic and the social in music studies and Black studies, while offering original historical and musicological insights into Black metaphysics and studies of the African diaspora. -

Hood Politics”: Racial Transformation in Hip-Hop Richard Spradlin
41 “Hood Politics”: Racial Transformation in Hip-Hop Richard Spradlin Abstract: This paper explores the possibility of music to transform the way we understand each other. In particular, it looks at the genre of hip-hop and the ways in which it can serve as a vehicle for understanding black experience. I argue that hip-hop’s structural elements allow artists to convey their living narrative in a way that recognizes, challenges, and changes our conceptual understanding of the black body. Using the works of Darby English and Harry Nethery, I examine hip-hop and apply their arguments to two specific rappers in order to illustrate my argument. Introduction Although music has been a relevant topic of philosophical conversation for centuries, rarely afforded this same privilege is the genre of hip-hop. The rough, aggressive sounds and lyrical content can turn many would-be listeners away. It is often critiqued for its sexism, misogyny, violence, and generally hedonist attitudes. It is fundamentally “different.” I’m interested in the location and identification of difference, as I believe hip-hop can reveal a larger cultural and social compartmentalization and confinement of the differently identified. These larger systems can shape our experience and influence our understandings of others-particularly black bodies.1 I argue that hip-hop has the ability to inspire a reconstruction of the narrative of self. It challenges how we understand the capturing and appropriation of black experience through the musical articulation of that experience. Using the language of conceptual terrain, inherited from Darby English, I argue that hip-hop can deconstruct and rebuild our larger schematic relationships with black art, and thereby our relationship with black bodies. -
36Th Annual Bull Sale
36th Annual Bull Sale FEBRUARY 27, 2021 - SPRUCE GROVE - 1:00PM to our 36th annual sale. In these trying times we can’t help but feel fortunate to be a part of an Welcomeindustry that is actually essential. An industry that supports itself internally no matter the obstacle. With very few things going on in the world that make sense, we feel that people involved in AG make sense and matter more than ever. Agriculture is maybe, finally getting half the recognition it deserves. Our beef markets have bounced around in the last 12 months. However, this fall we saw a surge in high calf prices and tremendous bred heifer prices if the quality was present. The fat market and cull trade has been painful, but things are slowly climbing this mid-winter. Times are on the rise. We lost an important member of our family and farm this past May. The man who steered the ship for many decades. Jack Lewis passed away on May 16th at the age of 88. He is missed every day and we are reminded of him in everything we do. With that being said Tyler and Brianna had a baby boy named Jack in September. Kyle and Alexis had another boy, Kolter John in May. The future here is exciting and we wouldn’t want to be doing anything else. We would like to thank Leonard and Rhonda Mark and their family for their continued partnership in this event. Leonard’s set of bulls continue to raise the bar. The consistency and attention to detail he has in the sector is unmatched. -
