Hip Hop, Attitude, Space, GenderAbstract
In São Paulo hip hoppers utilize the phrase"conquistar espaço" ubiquitously to evaluate a hip hop event or the "movement" as a whole. Thus, space is an organic category of analysis and one, I argue, that provides insight into the relative status of class, race, gender and sexuality among hip hoppers. Since hip hoppers often claim to represent the periferia, their narratives and particularly their expression of atitude potentially demonstrate significant relationships between youth and working-class identities and popular cultural practices. In my opinion, hip hop performance is both productively critical and disappointedly conservative. I draw from several years of ethnographic fieldwork since 1995 to demonstrate my argument.Downloads
