Posthuman Rap

Autor Justin Adams Burton
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 26 oct 2017
Posthuman Rap listens for the ways contemporary rap maps an existence outside the traditional boundaries of what it means to be human. Contemporary humanity is shaped in neoliberal terms, where being human means being viable in a capitalist marketplace that favors whiteness, masculinity, heterosexuality, and fixed gender identities. But musicians from Nicki Minaj to Future to Rae Sremmurd deploy queerness and sonic blackness as they imagine different ways of being human. Building on the work of Sylvia Wynter, Alexander Weheliye, Lester Spence, LH Stallings, and a broad swath of queer and critical race theory, Posthuman Rap turns an ear especially toward hip hop that is often read as apolitical in order to hear its posthuman possibilities, its construction of a humanity that is blacker, queerer, more feminine than the norm.

Recenzii

Posthuman Rap ties together choice references and pertinent case studies to offer a compelling account of the political potential of never stopping the party.
The book makes a convincing case that trap and crunk music possess just as much political power, depth, and humanity as their more mainstream, legible/audible counterparts.
