This timely and compelling book answers this question by decoding the lyrics of over 700 songs from contemporary rap artists. Using innovative research techniques, Matthew Oware reveals how emcees perpetuate and challenge gendered and racialized constructions of masculinity, femininity, and sexuality. Male and female artists litter their rhymes with misogynistic and violent imagery. However, men also express a full range of emotions, from arrogance to vulnerability, conveying a more complex manhood than previously acknowledged. Women emphatically state their desires while embracing a more feminist approach. Even LGBTQ artists stake their claim and express their sexuality without fear. Finally, in the age of Black Lives Matter and the presidency of Donald J. Trump, emcees forcefully politicize their music. Although complicated and contradictory in many ways, rap remains a powerful medium for social commentary. 606 $aMass media 606 $aCommunication 606 $aCultural studies 606 $aMusic 606 $aAfrican Americans 606 $aCulture 606 $aGender 606 $aMen 606 $aMedia Sociology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22110 606 $aCultural Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040 606 $aMusic$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/417000 606 $aAfrican American Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411020 606 $aCulture and Gender$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/411210 606 $aMen's Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35030 615 0$aMass media. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aCultural studies. 615 0$aMusic. 615 0$aAfrican Americans. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aGender. 615 0$aMen. 615 14$aMedia Sociology. 615 24$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aMusic. 615 24$aAfrican American Culture. 615 24$aCulture and Gender. 615 24$aMen's Studies. 676 $a201.7 700 $aOware$b Matthew$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0855606 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300576503321 996 $aI Got Something to Say$91910250 997 $aUNINA
