  • Abstract Humanities Jordan Iii, Augustus W. B.S. Florida
    ABSTRACT HUMANITIES JORDAN III, AUGUSTUS W. B.S. FLORIDA A&M UNIVERSITY, 1994 M.A. CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 1998 THE IDEOLOGICAL AND NARRATIVE STRUCTURES OF HIP-HOP MUSIC: A STUDY OF SELECTED HIP-HOP ARTISTS Advisor: Dr. Viktor Osinubi Dissertation Dated May 2009 This study examined the discourse of selected Hip-Hop artists and the biographical aspects of the works. The study was based on the structuralist theory of Roland Barthes which claims that many times a performer’s life experiences with class struggle are directly reflected in his artistic works. Since rap music is a counter-culture invention which was started by minorities in the South Bronx borough ofNew York over dissatisfaction with their community, it is a cultural phenomenon that fits into the category of economic and political class struggle. The study recorded and interpreted the lyrics of New York artists Shawn Carter (Jay Z), Nasir Jones (Nas), and southern artists Clifford Harris II (T.I.) and Wesley Weston (Lii’ Flip). The artists were selected on the basis of geographical spread and diversity. Although Hip-Hop was again founded in New York City, it has now spread to other parts of the United States and worldwide. The study investigated the biography of the artists to illuminate their struggles with poverty, family dysfunction, aggression, and intimidation. 1 The artists were found to engage in lyrical battles; therefore, their competitive discourses were analyzed in specific Hip-Hop selections to investigate their claims of authorship, imitation, and authenticity, including their use of sexual discourse and artistic rivalry, to gain competitive advantage.

  • Grayzone - Quarterly Digest - July 2002
    GrayZone - Quarterly Digest - July 2002 . GrayZone Quarterly Digest July 2002 Headline News | Artist's Corner | Busts | WorldWide Update | Legal Beagle Napster Files Chapter 11 Napster, Inc., which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection recently, won final approval June 25, 2002 of a $5.13 million debtor-in-possession (DIP) agreement with Bertelsmann AG, its prospective purchaser. Napster will use $4 million of the loan to fund business operations. The remaining $1.13 million will finance a key employee retention plan, the terms of which were also approved on June 25. Napster first stirred controversy as the provider of a free Internet music service that allowed millions of music fans to download and swap copyright music for free. Eventually the legitimate music industry was able to convince the courts that Napster's business model was illegal. Napster, which currently has a staff of 18, indicated it would rehire up to 28 additional employees once it received the DIP funding. The loan includes an 8% interest rate and expires the earliest of August 30, 2002, the completion of the sale, or the termination of the sale agreement. Napster has reportedly said that Bertelsmann is its only hope for a sale in Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Bertelsmann has agreed to acquire Napster's assets for $8 million in cash plus the elimination of its alleged $83 million secured claim. Napster filed for bankruptcy protection on June 3, listing assets of $7.9 million and liabilities of $101 million, as of April 30. Those suing Napster may now seek settlement through the bankruptcy proceedings. Although it is possible that the recording industry may not recoup all or any of its losses from the blatant and widespread copyright violations that occurred at Napster on a routine basis, experts said the recording industry was victorious nonetheless.
