Produktbeschreibung

The odyssey recounted within these pages traverses time and space in order to bear witness to an individual's developing artistry and commitment to political activism. In doing so, Kento chronicles the ongoing dynamics involving the potential of rap music's Italianate permutations and the legacy of a progressive, left cultural politics-what Antonio Gramsci called the national-political-to renounce such societal ills as neo-fascism, xenophobic racism, and misogynistic violence plaguing twenty-first century Italy. Kento's sonic resistance offers a model in which an informed individual's action and artistry contribute to a larger movement. -Joseph Sciorra, from the introduction
