MUSIC 3490 - [Hip Hop in Global Perspective]


(CA-AS) (CU-ITL)     
Fall. Next Offered: 2021-2022. 3 credits. Letter grades only.

C. Appert.

This course examines hip hop's historic development in the United States and its global spread to Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East. We will explore how youth throughout the world increasingly draw on U.S. hip hop to address their own experiences of marginality, exploitation, and displacement, localizing the music in ways that potentially complicate dominant models of cultural globalization.
