  • Public Enemy's Views on Racism As Seen Trough Their Songlyrics Nama
    Judul : Public enemy's views on racism as seen trough their songlyrics Nama : Rasti Setya Anggraini CHAPTER II LITERARY REVIEW A. Public Enemy and Hip-Hop Music 1. Hip-Hop Music in America Hip-hop or rap is an art form and culture originated from the South Bronx, New York around early 70s. It was a totally new and unique music genre that challenged all rules in the music industries. The music is made by cutting and mixing sounds (i.e. sampling) from other (two or more) well-made records—an action known as DJing. Thus, the DJ only needs two turntables as the musical instrument. This is cheaper and easier to do than using a full band instruments like in other music genres. The record sources itself can be taken from various resources like rock, bebop jazz, Israeli folk music, advertising jingles until TV news. On this unique music, people started to chant the lyrics in rapping style (i.e. the vocal expression of lyrics in sync to a rhythm beneath it). Based on this, the fans then often synonimize hip-hop with rap. The predominant mode of aesthetic evaluation of hip-hop is reality and the authority to present it. Thus, rap lyrics talk about the reflection of the daily lives of its 12 13 creators (the black community) with topic ranging from the trivial, such as one’s new Adidas sneakers, to the significant, like the infuriation spurred by police harassment. As hip-hop spread in United States, each region built their own identifications. For example, the rappers in Los Angeles (such as NWA, Tupac Shakur, Ice T, etc.) developed the gangsta rap (gangster rap) that highlighted the hard life in the ghetto along with its violence, drug, gang, and misogynistic attitude.
