The Gwich’in are an indigenous people home to modern day Northeastern Alaska and Northwestern Canada, who are heavily integrated with the Porcupine Caribou. The Gwich’in have been fighting political and legal battles to protect the sacred caribou calving grounds from oil and gas extraction corporations. Drum uses actual testimony presented to the United States Congress and swaps the word “caribou” with “petroleum” to draw an emotional connection with the audience. The term “Nature” will be defined as any object that has not been produced by human beings.…

    “In 1967,Kool Herc a Jamaican Dj, migrated to United States and settled in West Bronx. Herc was familiar with the Jamaican reggae system and by 1972; he had created his sound system,” (Alridge and Stewart, 193). His sound system was more powerful and louder that other disco systems in the neighborhood. Herc’s system was also original because it had incorporated full crisper sounds. “When Herc started djing at events near his home, he realized that the blacks living in New York were not interested with reggae. Therefore, he decided to incorporate Latin sounds in his system in order to eliminate the excess reggae sounds and give his system a more familiar sound,” (Alridge and Stewart, 193). The first step involved incorporating snatches of street…

    The beginnings of the Ska genre can be traced to the island nation of Jamaica in the mid 1950s. Initially, it was defined as “a kind of ham-fisted combination of American rhythm and blues and Caribbean folk styles, such as calypso and mento” (Selvin). This melting pot of sounds was credited to the fact that post World War II, the inhabitants of Jamaica were able to listen in on American radios due to American soldiers’ stationings. Tourism and other outside forces have always had an influence on Jamaican music, with textbooks coining that “Caribbean musics have participated in significant ways in globalized networks of music-making… that have historically emerged in response to travel in the Caribbean” (Nettl 345). With Jamaica’s music culture being accepting and adapting to outside instrumentation and styles, they were able to create a genre that appealed the to United States as well.…

    Out of the many established Indie labels, I decided to research a trailblazer label in one of my favorite genres of music: Hip Hop. It only made sense to research Def Jam Recordings. In respect to the core of a Hip Hop song (i.e. verses that are often measured by “16 bars”), paired with the wow-factor of the artist (i.e. the lyrics), I respectfully assign the pseudonym 16 Lyrics for Def Jam throughout the duration of this paper. As Hip Hop appreciators and fans, when we reflect on the music of Run DMC, LL Cool J, Beastie Boys, Public Enemy and Jay-Z to name a few, we must recognize the vehicle in which these artist used to jumpstart their careers was 16 Lyrics.…

    Reconnecting with rap and reggae music during his rehabilitation at Benin Home is no small point Beah makes. Listening to Run-D.M.C., one of the early pioneers of new school hip hop (It’s Like That, - {That’s Just the Way It Is} ) was a bridge to artists, beats and rhymes Beah’s childhood rap and dance group enjoyed and performed, such as Eric B and Rakim (I Know You Got Soul).

    The introduction shows that there is something deeper in hip hop other than diamond chains, nice cars, nine millimeter hand guns, and gang signs. Hip hop has roots that most MC’’s feel has strayed over the years. Not only has it strayed but original hip hop is not as popular as it once was. Hip hop has become a culture, that open doors of different avenues of artistry. Hip hop has done so much into emphasizing the importance of art and movement that there is a number of people that will keep us reminded what hip hop really was. These lyrical stories about “ghettos” and dope selling has become something praised about instead of rejected. The term “hip-hop is dead” has been circulating through the industry for years now. Big name rappers have said they are the ones to revive it, but according to Tricia Rose, they themselves are the intruders.…

    Or what associate professor David Brackett of McGill University would recall “one of the most disastrous examples of urban renewal in recent U.S history.” Education and social funding saw cuts in areas such as music programs, and opportunities were far and few between for many of the borough’s residents. Everybody may not have had access to a musical instrument, but most households still had a record player. It was in this environment a mobile disc jockey by the name of Kool Herc gained notoriety from an innovative playing style while performing at block parties in the neighbourhood parks and nightclubs. As rock critic Robert Ford Jr, noted in 1978 Billboard Magazine, Kool Herc’s playing style came from taking relatively short, unknown R&B rhythm breaks and splicing them back to back to create an infectious soundtrack. It was one record Herc recalls intimately as starting it all off, “Bongo Rock … The tune has a really good rhythm break but it was too short, I had to look for other things to put with it.” Much like the minimalistic beginnings of the bluesmen in rock n roll’s past, this was another example of making something out of nothing. But why so much popularity with inner city youth? Kool Herc points to modern music’s overproduction, “On most records, people have to wait through a lot of strings and singing to get to the good part of the record, but I just give it to them up front.” There is little doubt the evidence of punk and hip-hop’s simplistic approach in search of originality show a clear division from the extreme excess of the decade’s pop…

    In recent years, controversy in Hip-hop culture has been in the mix of America media. From the hype of the lyrics and the impact that Hip-hop music has on the youth. It seems that political and media groups have been quick to place all of the blame on rap music for the trend in youth violence from the murders and the gang related problems. However, forms of music cannot be understood unless you study the fame of its historical and social context. Hip-hop culture reflects the young, urban, working-class African Americans and uses the voice to express the views of the everyday life and the struggle. Now in the pop culture Hip Hop music popularity has grown, and now commercialization has took place and the culture and the origin is controlled by the music industry.…
