Produktbeschreibung
This book represents a unique study of rap music, its origins, development, relationships, and clashes between musical and social circles, as well as the revolution and cultural institutions. It also deals with the most important rap stars, their personal stories and creativity, the isolation of some of them, and the steadfastness of others, hoping, as researcher Sayed Abdul Hamid says, to change people's mentality about a new musical style, calling on readers to hold on to everything that is real within them and to abandon everything that does not resemble them or represent them. "What Sayed Abdel Hamid does in his book 'Stories regarding writing rap music is remarkable. He has thoroughly researched the Egyptian rap scene and reflects profoundly on the impact and meaning of rap music in the Egyptian context and life. He explains why rap music is not alien to Egyptian or Arabic culture, since rap music started as a cultural movement and force that represented a yearning for freedom and liberation of young merely black people, against racism and social exclusion. Although rap music nowadays is largely commercialized, it still is a tool in today's world for many young (and not so young) artists, poets, and writers to express themselves in they choose: raw, honest, free of set conventions, and because of that liberating force, rap music entered or 'infiltrated' almost every culture in the world, including the Egyptian, although every individual artist chooses his or her form" Christine Otten
