Los análisis del discurso son unos de los estudios que más auge han tenido en los últimos años pues estos han permitido un acercamiento y comprensión de distintos textos. El RAP es uno de los que no ha escapado a ser analizado por semiólogos y lingüistas, pues son estos quienes principalmente han decidido adentrarse en estos discursos para comprender los significados que contienen.1 Si bien es cierto, los análisis del discurso han ido ampliando los conocimientos que sobre el RAP se tienen, hay que resaltar que dichos estudios han tenido una perspectiva enfatizada en disciplinas como la lingüística y la historia2. Es por lo anterior que nuestro interés versó en hacer una interpretación de las canciones de Cejaz Negraz, las cuales pudieran resignificar su valor no sólo estético, social, histórico y lingüístico, sino que se considera imprescindible incluir el componente pedagógico que en él hay. Este trabajo se encuentra enmarcado en una perspectiva de los estudios culturales, pues es gracias a este campo que se logró transgredir la hegemonía disciplinar ( y universalizante) que estas imparten, para que esta investigación lograra entablar un diálogo con múltiples saberes, entre ellos los estudios del discurso, la estética y la pedagogía. 1 Esta afirmación parte de los trabajos encontrados al elaborar el estado del arte en la presente investigación, entre ellos se encuentran El Rap es mi Nación: De representaciones y marginalidad, el barrio de Las Cruces escenario de confluencia de conflictos; Figuras retóricas en el hip-hop español; El Rap español en el ámbito de los discursos de especialidad, entre otros. 2 Para conocer las investigaciones enfocadas e disciplinas ir al estado del arte de este trabajo. 11 Es por lo anterior que la presente monografía se ubica en una perspectiva epistemológica sustentada en la interpretación; es gracias a este enfoque hermenéutico que el Análisis del Discurso adquiere relevancia, logrando ir más allá de la simple identificación de marcas discursivas en un corpus de canciones, a una descripción, análisis e interpretación de las mismas a partir de las lecturas que se hacen de dichas narrativas desde este aquí y ahora. Este trabajo analiza un corpus de 15 canciones el cual fue extraído de la obra discográfica de Cejaz Negraz y cuya selección se realizó teniendo en cuenta que sus temáticas giraran en torno a las tres categorías propuestas, memoria, metáfora y estética. El presente trabajo está estructurado en cuatro capítulos. El primer capítulo se encuentra subdividido en cuatro partes, en la primera de ella se realiza una aproximación al HIP-HOP desde su nacimiento en Estados Unidos hasta su aparición como RAP en Colombia. En la segunda parte se encuentra un breve estado del arte, que incluye algunas tesis basadas en la cultura del HIP-HOP y en el RAP específicamente. En la tercera parte se propone el problema de investigación con su formulación y una descripción del mismo, en base al RAP de Cejaz Negraz. Como cuarta parte está la justificación de la presente investigación, con sus objetivos generales y específicos pretendidos en esta monografía. En el capítulo segundo se encuentran los referentes teóricos de la monografía. Las nociones de Discurso, Contexto y Sentido, se fundamentan

  • Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- Lecture for C-Span
    Fordham University DigitalResearch@Fordham Occasional Essays Bronx African American History Project 10-28-2019 Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- Lecture for C-Span Mark Naison Follow this and additional works at: https://fordham.bepress.com/baahp_essays Part of the African American Studies Commons, American Popular Culture Commons, Cultural History Commons, and the Ethnomusicology Commons Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- My Lecture for C-Span What I am about to describe to you is one of the most improbable and inspiring stories you will ever hear. It is about how young people in a section of New York widely regarded as a site of unspeakable violence and tragedy created an art form that would sweep the world. It is a story filled with ironies, unexplored connections and lessons for today. And I am proud to share it not only with my wonderful Rock and Roll to Hip Hop class but with C-Span’s global audience through its lectures in American history series. Before going into the substance of my lecture, which explores some features of Bronx history which many people might not be familiar with, I want to explain what definition of Hip Hop that I will be using in this talk. Some people think of Hip Hop exclusively as “rap music,” an art form taken to it’s highest form by people like Tupac Shakur, Missy Elliot, JZ, Nas, Kendrick Lamar, Wu Tang Clan and other masters of that verbal and musical art, but I am thinking of it as a multilayered arts movement of which rapping is only one component.

  • Old Heads Tell Their Stories: from Street Gangs to Street Organizations in New York City
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 412 305 UD 031 930 AUTHOR Brotherton, David C. TITLE Old Heads Tell Their Stories: From Street Gangs to Street Organizations in New York City. SPONS AGENCY Spencer Foundation, Chicago, IL. PUB DATE 1997-00-00 NOTE 35p. PUB TYPE Reports Research (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Adults; *Delinquency; Illegal Drug Use; *Juvenile Gangs; *Leadership; Neighborhoods; Role Models; Urban Areas; *Urban Youth IDENTIFIERS *New York (New York); Street Crime ABSTRACT It has been the contention of researchers that the "old heads" (identified by Anderson in 1990 and Wilson in 1987) of the ghettos and barrios of America have voluntarily or involuntarily left the community, leaving behind new generations of youth without adult role models and legitimate social controllers. This absence of an adult strata of significant others adds one more dynamic to the process of social disorganization and social pathology in the inner city. In New York City, however, a different phenomenon was found. Older men (and women) in their thirties and forties who were participants in the "jacket gangs" of the 1970s and/or the drug gangs of the 1980s are still active on the streets as advisors, mentors, and members of the new street organizations that have replaced the gangs. Through life history interviews with 20 "old heads," this paper traces the development of New York City's urban working-class street cultures from corner gangs to drug gangs to street organizations. It also offers a critical assessment of the state of gang theory. Analysis of the development of street organizations in New York goes beyond this study, and would have to include the importance of street-prison social support systems, the marginalization of poor barrio and ghetto youth, the influence of politicized "old heads," the nature of the illicit economy, the qualitative nonviolent evolution of street subcultures, and the changing role of women in the new subculture.

The literature is comparatively lacking in emphasis when compared to information about specific criminal activities and the threat of the organisations. This study finds that the social and cultural dimensions of established organised criminal sub-cultures can be equally important and indicative of changes in those organisations. This thesis analyses the change in how established organised criminal sub- cultures, or mafias, have perceived and used identity over the last twenty years and asks whether this can be indicative of a change in the social and cultural model of these organisations.

  • The Writing on the Wall
    The Writing on the Wall GRAFFITI CULTURE CRUMBLES INTO THE VIOLENCE IT ONCE ESCAPED BY SACHA JENKINS THE WRITING ON THE WALL: homeboys, who served as referees and muscle-flexing diplomats, just in case GRAFFITI CULTURE CRUMBLES INTO things got ugly in the schoolyard. THE VIOLENCE IT ONCE ESCAPED When a 19-year-old writer, Timothy “Spek” Falzone, was shot and killed last July, allegedly by a rival writer, 20-year-old Ricky “Foke” Mouzon, it shook the graffiti world. The headline in the New York Post may have read “DEADLY ‘TAG’ GAME,” but Spek’s passing meant so much more to us writers. In the 30 years of baseball-bat-swinging and knuckle-busting that graffiti’s brawls have produced, Falzone’s murder is a first: never before was a writer killed at the hands of another writer because of a writing-related controversy. The die-hards won- dered: “Well, whatever happened to the “fair one”? Then, the day after Sept. 11, just a few months after Spek’s murder, I wondered if the fair one meant anything to anyone anywhere. In New York’s graffiti world, writing “kings” come into power in a few ways: some by way of innovative lettering styles and advanced painting techniques; hey called themselves “writers” others through sheer quantity, by “bombing” (stylized signatures and quickly 128 because writing is exactly whatT they did. For the last 30 years, the graffiti culture done bubble-letter forms called “throw ups” which they plastered anywhere and 129 in New York City has been maintained and elevated by countless teen spirits— everywhere); and still others by way of brute physical force (most writers are you know, the kids and big kids (some of them now well into their 30s, 40s, 50s like daytime soap-opera gossips who thirst for the dramatic, and a great brawl even) who, with magic markers and spray paint, illegally project their street can amount to even greater publicity for both winner and loser).

(Doc. 609). For the reasons set forth more fully in the accompanying memorandum in support, the administration of the federal death penalty involves three fundamental constitutional defects: (1) serious unreliability, (2) arbitrariness in application, and (3) unconscionably long delays that undermine the death penalty's penological purpose. Perhaps as a result, (4) most places within the United States have abandoned its use under evolving standards of decency. WHEREFORE, for the reasons described in greater detail in the accompanying Memo- randum, Mr. Fell respectfully requests this Court to dismiss and/or to strike the Amended Notice Of Intent To Seek Penalty Of Death on the ground that the federal death penalty, in and of itself, constitutes a legally prohibited cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by both the Fifth and Eighth Amendments.
