  • Outkast'd and Claimin' True
    OUTKAST’D AND CLAIMIN’ TRUE: THE LANGUAGE OF SCHOOLING AND EDUCATION IN THE SOUTHERN HIP­HOP COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE by JOYCELYN A. WILSON (Under the direction of Judith Preissle) ABSTRACT The hip­hop community of practice encompasses a range of aesthetic values, norms, patterns, and traditions. Because of its growth over the last three decades, the community has come to include regionally­specific networks linked together by community members who engage in meaningful practices and experiences. Expressed through common language ideologies, these practices contribute to the members’ communal and individual identity while simultaneously providing platforms to articulate social understandings. Using the constructs of community of practice and social networks, this research project is an interpretive study grounded primarily in the use of lyrics and interviews to investigate the linguistic patterns and language norms of hip­ hop’s southern network, placing emphasis on the Atlanta, Georgia southern hip­hop network. The two main goals are to gain an understanding of the role of school in the cultivation of the network and identify the network’s relationship to schooling and education. The purpose is to identify initial steps for implementing a hip­hop pedagogy in curriculum and instruction. INDEX WORDS: Hip­hop community of practice, social network, language ideology, hip­hop generation, indigenous research, schooling, education OUTKAST’D AND CLAIMIN’ TRUE: THE LANGUAGE OF SCHOOLING AND EDUCATION IN THE SOUTHERN HIP­HOP COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE by JOYCELYN A.

  • Monae Davis’ Essay “Hip-Hop and Product Placement: the Struggle to ‘Keep It Real’” Discusses the Evolution of Materialism in the Hip-Hop Community
    HIP-HOP AND PRODUCT PLACEMENT: THE STRUGGLE TO “KEEP IT REAL” Monae A. Davis The entertainment industry is one of the most lucrative businesses worldwide, making billions of dollars per second. Magazines and television channels such as People Magazine and Entertainment Television are dedicated to following the celebrities that grace the Hollywood big screen or belt tunes over the airwaves; but just who are the real stars? Is it the celebrity who appears on the red carpet for a premiere, the outfit she is wearing, or the car in which she appears at the premier? The entertainment industry and corporate America have, unbeknownst to the general public, become business partners. This unlikely union is known as “product placement.” In their essay “Product Placement as a Marketing Tool in Film and Television,” H. Ronald Moser and his colleagues define “product placement” as a “paid product message aimed at influencing movie or television audiences [and music listeners] via the planned and unobtrusive entry of branded product onto a movie or television [or song]” (1). Corporations pay entertainers or production companies large sums of money to have their product placed in films and songs, and hip-hop is a culture that is being strongly targeted by marketing executives and their product placement advertising methods. Hip-hop is a community within the entertainment industry that is not only a mixture of music such as rap, rhythm and blues, pop, reggae, gospel, soca, reggaeton, and rock n’ roll, but also a life-style with language, clothing, swagger, and mentality that produce a common bond between people world wide.

GREENBERG∗ & DENNIS HUGHES, JR.∗∗ 1 In the past twenty years, over 100 new or renovated sports facilities have been developed in cities across the United States.2 In the 1990s, approximately $15 billion was spent on major league facilities, with approximately $11 billion of the funding contributed by state and local governments.3 Since 2003, the four major sports leagues—Major League Baseball (MLB), the National Football League (NFL), the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the National Hockey League (NHL)—have seen the development of twenty-one new facilities, at a cost of over $16 billion,4 nearly equal to the cost of the sixty-five facilities built the decade before.5 As stadium costs, not to mention revenues, continue to rise, the American taxpayer continues to be the largest underwriter of sports facilities for its home teams. For example, in MLB during the 1990s, nine new stadiums were completed6 with over eighty percent of the cost of those MLB ballparks ∗ Martin J.
