Bag om Hip-Hop Authenticity and the London Scene

This book explores the ideal of authenticity in hip-hop ¿ what it is, why it is important, and how it affects the day-to-day life of rap artists. By analyzing the practices, identities, and struggles that shape the lives of rappers in the London scene, the study exposes the strategies and tactics that hip-hop practitioners engage in to negotiate authenticity. Interviews and fieldwork provide insight into the nature of authenticity in global hip-hop, and the dynamics of cultural appropriation, globalization, marketization, and digitization. This book will engender much needed discussion about the nature of authenticity in music, youth culture, and contemporary society more widely.
