  • An Examination of Essential Popular Music Compact Disc Holdings at the Cleveland Public Library
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 435 403 IR 057 553 AUTHOR Halliday, Blane TITLE An Examination of Essential Popular Music Compact Disc Holdings at the Cleveland Public Library. PUB DATE 1999-05-00 NOTE 94p.; Master's Research Paper, Kent State University. Information Science. Appendices may not reproduce adequately. PUB TYPE Dissertations/Theses (040) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Audiodisks; Discographies; *Library Collection Development; *Library Collections; *Optical Disks; *Popular Music; *Public Libraries; Research Libraries; Tables (Data) IDENTIFIERS *Cleveland Public Library OH ABSTRACT In the 1970s and early 1980s, a few library researchers and scholars made a case for the importance of public libraries' acquisition of popular music, particularly rock music sound recordings. Their arguments were based on the anticipated historical and cultural importance of obtaining and maintaining a collection of these materials. Little new research in this direction has been performed since then. The question arose as to what, if anything, has changed since this time. This question was answered by examining the compact disc holdings of the Cleveland Public Library, a major research-oriented facility. This examination was accomplished using three discographies of essential rock music titles, as well as recent "Billboard" Top 200 Album charts. The results indicated a strong orientation toward the acquisition of recent releases, with the "Billboard" charts showing the largest percentages of holdings for the system. Meanwhile, the holdings vis-a-vis the essential discographies ran directly opposite the "Billboard" holdings. This implies a program of short-term patron satisfaction by providing current "hits," while disregarding the long-term benefits of a collection based on demonstrated artistic relevance.

The human nervous system filters, categorizes and distorts the external universe until the individual can truly be said to create the world in which they live. The process of enculturation by itself usually creates the reality in which most people live. Thought is imposed by the cultural environment. Values, beliefs and even behavioral paradigms are detcnnincd by the social status quo. People live in a shared illusory reality, a consensual hallucination, without realizing its true nature, thereby abscond­ ing themselves of all personal responsibility. They believe they know truth. Individuals have the potent.ial to control these illusions, foster individual thought and promote rapid changes within the existing socio-cultural mileau.

I’m most thankful for my parents for giving me the tools to conquer all and the rest of my family whose love and support continue to drive me forward. I wouldn’t have survived the University of Michigan or Ann Arbor were it not for the House (Gabriel Sarpy, Michael Pascual, Faithe Day, Cassius Adair, and Meryem Kamil). I will forever remember house parties and sleepovers and potlucks and Taco Bell and Popeyes and running the town into complete chaos. Ann Arbor didn’t know what to do with us. Thank you for inspiring my crazy and feeding my soul those dark Midwestern years. I am, as always, profoundly indebted to the Goon Squad (Marissa, Jayme, Tyler, Ish, Hanna, Shriya, Bianca, Amaad, Nikki, Ankita, and Rahul), to whom I owe too much.

  • Unladylike Divas”: Language, Gender, and Female Gangsta Rappers*
    Popular Music and Society, Vol. 26, No. 4, 2003 “Unladylike Divas”: Language, Gender, and Female Gangsta Rappers* Jason D. Haugen Introduction Gangsta rap, or “hardcore” rap, is a genre of music that historically has been dominated by male recording artists. There is a well-known perception that much of the discourse that takes place in this genre imposes upon certain women cate- gories of status that are taken to be lower than the statuses that the men themselves take (e.g., bitches and hoes, etc. vs. pimps and hustlers, etc.). Although some scholarly attention has focused on these kinds of masculine discourses, to my knowledge there has been no systematic study of the ways in which female rappers have taken the discourse styles and subject matter used by the men in gangsta rap and appropriated these in their own verbal art. Most studies have focused on issues nonspecific to women gangsta rappers. For instance, Guevara discusses females trying to maintain a socioculturally “traditional” femininity within hip-hop music and culture. Berry discusses the “positive feminine images” and emergence of black feminist empowerment found in female rappers of the 1980s and early 1990s. Rose devotes but a single paragraph to “gangsta bitches.” She cites one group, Boss, as undermining its own efforts to “pull the trump card on gangsta posturing about sexual prowess” by allowing men to sing their chorus about “letting a ho be a ho” (174). In this paper I will focus on the performativity of gendered identities. I will take the discourse discussed below—gangsta rap narratives performed by women— to be performances about femininity and performances of femininity.

  • WHAT IS HIP HOP? the Four Elements of Hip Hop Hip Hop Is Music — and a Culture, Encompassing Speech, Styles of Dress, Art
    WHAT IS HIP HOP? The Four Elements of Hip Hop Hip hop is music — and a culture, encompassing speech, styles of dress, art, poetry and dancing, as well as "rapping." Purists have narrowed the major components of the culture into four loosely defined categories: deejaying, emceeing, breaking and graffiti art. Deejaying Jamaican immigrant Kool Herc, inspired by the “dubbing” and “toasting” from his native home, is credited with introducing deejaying to New York. Early New York DJs improvised, using a pair of turntables as a makeshift instrument when funding for school music programs were cut. Later Afrika Bambataa evolved the art of deejaying. MCing, or Emceeing MCs have become a centralized figure in hip hop. Commercially, MCs are known as rappers. During hip hop’s early days, MCs played a supporting role, accompanying the deejay and carrying crates of records. They used a microphone to talk over breakbeats and publicize their own neighborhoods while the deejay spun records. As competition for this position increased, MCs engaged in one-upmanship, boasting of their greatness in the face of inner city economic despair. Breaking Also known as b-boying, the dances that accompany the music have many influences. Kids in diverse New York neighborhoods were exposed to Eastern martial arts, tap dancing, gymnastics, salsa, Afro-Cuban and Native American dances. In the late ‘90’s b-boys and b- girls integrated moves from capoeira, a 16th century fighting dance developed by Brazilian slaves preparing for resistance. Graffiti Urban graffiti, using spray cans to create stylized murals and “tags” to create art in public spaces, gave kids a means of self-expression and a chance to spread political messages.

  • Silkk the Shocker Album Download Charge It 2 Da Game
    silkk the shocker album download Charge It 2 da Game. Although it certainly wasn't planned that way, Charge It 2 da Game was No Limit's first major release since the breakthrough success of Master P's Ghetto D. Like any No Limit album, Charge It 2 da Game is primarily notable for the way it co-opts current trends. Granted, it doesn't sound as derivative as Ghetto D, possibly because Snoop Doggy Dogg, Ice Cube, and Eightball & MJG make guest appearances, along with the usual cast of No Limit refugees. Silkk himself is a fine rapper, but he's not particularly distinctive, and neither are the backing tracks. It's an improvement from the scattershot violence 'n' misogyny of his debut, The Shocker, and it's better than many of its No Limit peers, but Charge It 2 da Game is by and large just an average gangsta album. #music4u4free. 01.
