Hiphop Literacies is an exploration of the rhetorical, language
and literacy practices of African Americans, with a focus on the
Hiphop generation. Richardson analyses the lyrics and discourse of
Hiphop, explodes myths and stereotypes about Black culture and
language and shows how Hiphop language is a global ambassador of
the English language and American culture.
Richardson examines African American Hiphop in secondary oral
contexts such as rap music, song lyrics, electronic and digital
media, oral performances and cinema and brings together issues and
concepts that are explored in the disciplines of folklore,
ethnomusicology, sociolinguistics, discourse studies and New
Literacies Studies.
