Argues that Indigenous hip hop is the latest and newest assertion of Indigenous sovereignty throughout Indigenous North America. Expressive culture has always been an important part of the social, political, and economic lives of Indigenous people. More recently, Indigenous people have blended expressive cultures with hip hop culture, creating new sounds, aesthetics, movements, and ways of being Indigenous. This book documents recent developments among the Indigenous hip hop generation. Meeting at the nexus of hip hop studies, Indigenous studies, and critical ethnic studies, Hip Hop Beats, Indigenous Rhymes argues that Indigenous people use hip hop culture to assert their sovereignty and challenge settler colonialism. From rapping about land and water rights from Flint to Standing Rock, to remixing traditional beading with hip hop aesthetics, Indigenous people are using hip hop to challenge their ongoing dispossession, disrupt racist stereotypes and images of Indigenous people, contest white supremacy and heteropatriarchy, and reconstruct ideas of a progressive masculinity. In addition, this book carefully traces the idea of authenticity; that is, the common notion that, by engaging in a Black culture, Indigenous people are losing their traditions. Indigenous hip hop artists navigate the muddy waters of the politics of authenticity by creating art that is not bound by narrow conceptions of what it means to be Indigenous; instead, they flip the notion of tradition and create alternative visions of what being Indigenous means today, and what that might look like going forward. This book is incredibly important and will change the fields of Native American, African American, gender, and sound studies. It is the first full-length monograph on the rich, diverse, and complex field of Indigenous hip hop. This is the text against which all other studies in the field will be compared.

The inspiration to write this book was the finale of a lengthy healing process. Growing up for me consisted of a life surrounded by vices, which could cause a man to become powerless. I remember relying on the Serenity Prayer God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, and Wisdom to know the difference. The power of prayer is an awesome thing. Through prayer, I was given serenity, courage and wisdom. Serenity helped me stand still and allow God to fight the battles for me as I was only a child and was not equipped. Courage helped me tobreak the cycles and provided me with determination to beat the odds. Wisdom helped me understand that the cards I was dealt in life are required ingredients for me to become self-empowered. In 2004, God revealed to me that my purpose in life is to impact social change on a macro-level, particularly with African American males. I have realized through mentoring African American males that the same vices that surrounded me two decades ago, still exist in their lives. I am obligated through my purpose in life, to represent the survival, growth and successes of black men who by defeating the odds, are as a result, changing the odds. I pray that this book is received as a fundamental tool to help move African American males towards Self-Empowerment. If one person's life is changed through the message in this book, social change has been impacted.

Hot Music, Ragmentation, and the Bluing of American Literature examines the diverse ways in which African American "hot" music influenced American culture - particularly literature - in early twentieth-century America. Steven C. Tracy provides a history of the fusion of African and European elements that formed African American "hot" music, and considers how terms like ragtime, jazz, and blues developed their own particular meanings for American music and society. He draws from the fields of literature, literary criticism, cultural anthropology, American studies, and folklore to demonstrate how blues as a musical and poetic form has been a critical influence on American literature. -- from dust jacket.
