Afro-Colombian Hip-Hop: Globalization, Transcultural Music, and
Ethnic Identities, by Christopher Dennis, explores the impact that
globalization and the transnational spread of U.S. popular
culture-specifically hip-hop and rap-are having on the social
identities of younger generations of black Colombians. Along with
addressing why and how hip-hop has migrated so effectively to
Colombia's black communities, Dennis introduces readers to some of
the country's most renowned Afro-Colombian hip-hop artists, their
musical innovations, and production and distribution practices.
Above all, Dennis demonstrates how, through a mode of
transculturation, today's young artists are transforming U.S.
hip-hop into a more autonomous art form used for articulating
oppositional social and political critiques, reworking ethnic
identities, and actively contributing to the reimagining of the
Colombian nation. Afro-Colombian Hip-Hop uncovers ways in which
young Afro-Colombian performers are attempting to use hip-hop and
digital media to bring the perspectives, histories, and expressive
forms of their marginalized communities into national and
international public consciousness.
