Representations of Femininity and Sexuality in Hip-Hop Music (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783346001399)

Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Sociology - Media, Art, Music, grade: 1,7, University of Bonn, language: English, abstract: A lot of research has been done that examined how Black women are presented in Hip-Hop songs by male artists. Especially rap music received much criticism, because it implied negative representations of women. Yet, how black female MC's represent themselves is a topic that still needs more investigation. In the rare moments when women take the stage, it is noteworthy to examine the message of their songs. Therefore, this study is concerned with the question, in how far black female rappers make use of their femininity and sexuality from the beginning of Hip-Hop music until today.
