Description

In the case of hip-hop, the forces of top-down corporatization and bottom-up globalization are inextricably woven. This volume takes the view that hip-hop should not be viewed with this dichotomous dynamic in mind and that this dynamic does not arise solely outside of the continental US. Close analysis of the facts reveals a much more complex situation in which market pressures, local (musical) traditions, linguistic and semiotic intelligiblity, as well as each country's particular historico-political past conspire to yield new hybrid expressive genres

This exciting collection looks at linguistic, cultural and economic aspects of hip-hop in parallel and showcases a global scope. The data is analyzed within multiple sociolinguistic and discourse analysis frameworks, including Communities of Practice, performativity and identity construction. It engages with questions of code-switching, code-mixing, the minority language/regional dialect vs. standard dynamic, the discourse of political resistance, immigrant ideologies, youth and new language varieties and will be essential reading for graduates and researchers in sociolinguistics and discourse analysis.

Done! Honor for me to write the first comment of this book. The excellent sociolinguistics studies about hip-hop. More about how the HH developed with the change of culture. It would be better if i speak the languages mentioned in it. Because of that I didn’t have a fair comprehension of the analysis part of each thesis.
