  • Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa
    All Mixed Up: Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa Dominique Santos 22113429 PhD Social Anthropology Goldsmiths, University of London All Mixed Up: Music and Inter-Generational Experiences of Social Change in South Africa Dominique Santos 22113429 Thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for a PhD in Social Anthropology Goldsmiths, University of London 2013 Cover Image: Party Goer Dancing at House Party Brixton, Johannesburg, 2005 (Author’s own) 1 Acknowledgements I owe a massive debt to a number of people and institutions who have made it possible for me to give the time I have to this work, and who have supported and encouraged me throughout. The research and writing of this project was made financially possible through a generous studentship from the ESRC. I also benefitted from the receipt of a completion grant from the Goldsmiths Anthropology Department. Sophie Day took over my supervision at a difficult point, and has patiently assisted me to see the project through to submission. John Hutnyk’s and Sari Wastel’s early supervision guided the incubation of the project. Frances Pine and David Graeber facilitated an inspiring and supportive writing up group to formulate and test ideas. Keith Hart’s reading of earlier sections always provided critical and pragmatic feedback that drove the work forward. Julian Henriques and Isaak Niehaus’s helpful comments during the first Viva made it possible for this version to take shape. Hugh Macnicol and Ali Clark ensured a smooth administrative journey, if the academic one was a little bumpy. Maia Marie read and commented on drafts in the welcoming space of our writing circle, keeping my creative fires burning during dark times.

  • 'What Ever Happened to Breakdancing?'
    'What ever happened to breakdancing?' Transnational h-hoy/b-girl networks, underground video magazines and imagined affinities. Mary Fogarty Submitted in partial fulfillment Of the requirements for the degree of Interdisciplinary MA in Popular Culture Brock University St. Catharines, Ontario © November 2006 For my sister, Pauline 111 Acknowledgements The Canada Graduate Scholarship (SSHRC) enabled me to focus full-time on my studies. I would also like to express my deepest gratitude to my committee members: Andy Bennett, Hans A. Skott-Myhre, Nick Baxter-Moore and Will Straw. These scholars have shaped my ideas about this project in crucial ways. I am indebted to Michael Zryd and Francois Lukawecki for their unwavering kindness, encouragement and wisdom over many years. Steve Russell patiently began to teach me basic rules ofgrammar. Barry Grant and Eric Liu provided comments about earlier chapter drafts. Simon Frith, Raquel Rivera, Anthony Kwame Harrison, Kwande Kefentse and John Hunting offered influential suggestions and encouragement in correspondence. Mike Ripmeester, Sarah Matheson, Jeannette Sloniowski, Scott Henderson, Jim Leach, Christie Milliken, David Butz and Dale Bradley also contributed helpful insights in either lectures or conversations. AJ Fashbaugh supplied the soul food and music that kept my body and mind nourished last year. If AJ brought the knowledge then Matt Masters brought the truth. (What a powerful triangle, indeed!) I was exceptionally fortunate to have such noteworthy fellow graduate students. Cole Lewis (my summer writing partner who kept me accountable), Zorianna Zurba, Jana Tomcko, Nylda Gallardo-Lopez, Seth Mulvey and Pauline Fogarty each lent an ear on numerous much needed occasions as I worked through my ideas out loud.

  • Baka Not Nice Releases 'No Long Talk.' Via OVO Sound
    BAKA NOT NICE RELEASES no long talk. THREE NEW TRACKS – FEATURING JUICY J AND GIGGS CURRENTLY ON TOUR ACROSS EUROPE WITH DRAKE ON THE ASSASSINATION VACATION TOUR LISTEN TO no long talk. https://ovosound.io/nolongtalk MARCH 22, 2019 (TORONTO, ONT.) – Today, OVO’s Baka Not Nice has shared three new tracks, together titled no long talk. The project consists of coast-to-coast scorcher “My Town" feat. Giggs, the ominous "30” and strip-club-ready “Caddy's” feat. Juicy J. The trifecta of songs is a deeper dive into Baka’s life experiences, both past and present. The music is built on the foundation where actions speak louder, dedication to the craft is key and loyalty is paramount. The expression "no long talk" is West Indian Patois, commonly used to express frustration with someone who talks too much. Baka’s no long talk. arrives amidst his live tour dates in the UK as support on the Assassination Vacation arena-tour with Drake. It is also the first offering from the Toronto native since his debut mixtape 4Milli was released in 2018 on OVO Sound/Warner Bros. Records. In addition, Baka Not Nice recently announced that his breakout hit song “Live Up To My Name” from the 4milli mixtape has earned RIAA Certified Platinum status in Canada and RIAA Gold status in the United States. “Live Up To My Name” has been streamed over 100 million times since its release.

  • The Very Thought of Long Beach, CA Immediately Brings O.G. Culture to Mind
    The very thought of Long Beach, CA immediately brings O.G. culture to mind. You can practically see those classic Snoop Dogg and Warren G videos on repeat at the mention of the city. For as inextricably connected to West Coast hip-hop as the LBC may be, it gives rise to a fresh and fiery voice for soul in Giveon. With nearly half-a-million independent streams to his credit and acclaim by everyone from Flaunt to HotNewHipHop, the Long Beach-born singer and songwriter infuses Rat Pack-style classiness into modern R&B. “It’s a different perspective,” he explains. “There’s soul to it. There’s pop to it. However, I want to speak on relatable things everybody thinks about but nobody says—in a classy way. The goal is just to be Giveon.” One of three brothers raised by a single mother, he gravitated towards music at a young age. He initially found inspiration in Frank Ocean and Miguel between performing at school functions. As he recalls, “Mom did a really good job of sheltering us, so we didn’t fall into what was going on outside like the gang culture and poverty.” Attending a GRAMMY® Academy program at eighteen proved transformative as the instructor implored him to perform Frank Sinatra’s “Fly Me To The Moon” for a project. “I had an epiphany after initially hearing Sinatra,” he says. “It was the very first time I heard a baritone singer. I got into Bobby Caldwell and Barry White from there. I realized my tone at this point.” Developing his own baritone delivery, he caught the attention of another Long Beach local and multiplatinum singer and songwriter AUGUST 08 [DJ Khaled, Justin Bieber] who served as an initial mentor.
