Culture America.

Author: Ogbar, Jeffrey Ogbonna Green
General Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 183-223) and index.
The minstrel reprise : hip-hop and the evolution of the Black image in American popular culture -- "Real niggas" : race, ethnicity and the construction of authenticity in hip-hop -- Between God and earth : feminism, machismo, and gender in hip-hop music -- Rebels with a cause : gangstas, militants, media, and the contest for hip-hop -- Locked up : police, the prison industrial complex, Black youth, and social control.
In this groundbreaking book, Jeffrey O.G. Ogbar celebrates hip-hop and confronts the cult of authenticity that defines its essential character-that dictates how performers walk, talk, and express themselves artistically and also influences the consumer market. Hip-Hop Revolution is a balanced cultural history that looks past negative stereotypes of hip-hop as a monolith of hedonistic, unthinking noise to reveal its evolving positive role within American society.
