  • Artists & Artisans: a Critical Discourse Analysis of Soundcloud
    Artists & Artisans: A Critical Discourse Analysis of SoundCloud Rap By Kareem Khadr Abstract The following paper examines what sort of influence is being exerted through the discourse reproduced in one of the newest waves in the Hip-Hop/Rap genre, SoundCloud Rap. SoundCloud Rap could be categorized as one of the few competing sub-genres that opposes themes of authenticity which “gatekeepers” of original Hip-Hop/Rap attribute to the genre’s earlier days. In this paper, a close reading of the lyrics from the most listened to SoundCloud Rap songs of 2017 and 2018 is performed to determine if SoundCloud Rap demonstrates the formulaic structure and promotion of certain social practices, ideologies and themes that are characteristic of “mainstream” popular culture hegemonic products. Introduction In June 2017, The New York Times published an article revealing the newest wave in the Hip-Hop/Rap genre to a more general audience, known as SoundCloud Rap (Caramanica, 2017). SoundCloud is presented as a streaming service oriented towards musical discovery, with a low barrier of entry for aspiring artists. The new wave takes its name after the streaming service since it serves as the platform for the artists behind the most recent “vital and disruptive movement in hip-hop”. The music is described as “low-fidelity” and “insistent” referring to its substandard production quality and repetitive beats, while the artists are described as “outlandish characters” known for their face tattoos, dyed hair, high fashion streetwear and prescription drug use. The history of the Hip-Hop/Rap genre and its subsequent surrounding culture is well known.

  • Connotation of Sex, Violence, Drugs and Alcohol Themes in Music Videos of Billboard’S Top Hip-Hop Songs
    © 2021 JETIR April 2021, Volume 8, Issue 4 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) CONNOTATION OF SEX, VIOLENCE, DRUGS AND ALCOHOL THEMES IN MUSIC VIDEOS OF BILLBOARD’S TOP HIP-HOP SONGS 1Ijah, Isomgboawaji Ruth Ntente, 2Ihejirika, Walter C., 3Mbazie, Sunny C. J. 1Ph.D Student (), 2Professor (Ph.D), 3Senior Lecturer (Ph.D) 1Department of Linguistics and Communication Studies, 1University of Port Harcourt, Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Abstract: Sex, violence, drugs and alcohol are among the popular antisocial themes portrayed in hip-hop music and music videos. They are antisocial given that they are portrayed in manners that go against the Nigerian society’s moral virtues. These themes are portrayed through subliminal signs and sign systems thereby prompting the need for their investigation. This study aims at investigating the connotative signs and sign systems used in portraying themes of sex, violence, drugs and alcohol in globally popular hip-hop music videos. The hip-hop songs used in this study were collected from Billboard Year-End Charts of 2017 and 2018 and their respective music videos pulled from YouTube. Focus group discussion was adopted in carrying out this study. There were two sessions with 7 participants each. Participants included music broadcast journalists, heavy music video consumers, social media experts, hip-hop artistes and music video producers. Results revealed that certain foods, objects, colours, gestures and animals are some sign systems that portray sex, violence, drugs and alcohol in hip-hop music videos. it was therefore recommended that parents and guardians be educated to regulate the consumption of these music videos by their children/wards who are under 18 years of age.
