Download or read book Sounds French written by Jonathyne Briggs and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-02 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sounds French examines the history of popular music in France between the arrival of rock and roll in 1958 and the collapse of the first wave of punk in 1980, and the connections between musical genres and concepts of community in French society. During this period, scholars have tended to view the social upheavals associated with postwar reconstruction as part of debates concerning national identity in French culture and politics, a tendency that developed from political figures' and intellectuals' concerns with French national identity. In this book, author Jonathyne Briggs reorients the scholarship away from an exclusive focus on national identity and instead towards an investigation of other identities that develop as a result of the increased globalization of culture. Popular music, at once individual and communal, fixed and plastic, offers an illuminating window into such transformations in social structures through the ways in which musicians, musical consumers, and critical intermediaries re-imagined themselves as part of novel cultural communities, whether local, national, or supranational in nature. Briggs argues that national identity was but one of a panoply of identities in flux during the postwar period in France, demonstrating that the development of hybridized forms of popular music provided the French with a method for expressing and understanding that flux. Drawing upon an array of printed and aural sources, including music publications, sound recordings, record sleeves, biographies, and cultural criticism, Sounds French is an essential new look at popular music in postwar France.

Download or read book Black Blanc Beur written by Alain-Philippe Durand and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2002-10-16 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rap music was born in America in the early 1980s. Over the last decade it has not only grown in popularity within the United States, with rap music soaring to the top of the music charts, but it has also influenced other cultures around the world. Black, Blanc, Beur is about the emergence and growing notoriety of rap music and hip-hop culture in the French-speaking world (France, Quebec, and Western Africa). It provides an introduction to many forms of expression of hip-hop cultures (rap music, hip-hop dance, and graffiti/tagging). Since its arrival in France, rap music experienced immediate and ever-growing success, going from an underground sound to becoming the second largest market in the world after the United States. Just as American rap crossed borders, French rap influenced artists in the rest of the Francophone world. In addition to a foreword by Adam Krims, a noted rap authority, this volume has contributions by some of the most renowned hip-hop scholars on both sides of the Atlantic and addresses hip-hop from the perspective of various disciplines: African studies, anthropology, cultural studies, ethnology, French and Francophone studies, history, linguistics, musicology, psychology, and sociology. Contributors discuss the history of French rap music from its origin to the present, the various artists and their groups, stage performances of the rap groups in Paris, Marseilles, the art of graffiti, and the French public's perceptions of rap music. Each chapter is equipped with a short bibliography. This is the first book on the subject of French rap music and hip-hop culture in English. A wonderful resource for scholars and students of African, French and pop culture, ethnomusicology, and for the general public interested in rap music and the hip-hop culture.
Download or read book Une histoire du rap en France written by Karim Hammou and published by La Découverte. This book was released on 2014-05-07 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lorsque rap et hip-hop apparaissent en France au tournant des années 1980, nombreux sont ceux qui n'y voient qu'un phénomène éphémère. Près de quarante ans plus tard, ce genre musical est non seulement bien vivant, mais il fait durablement partie des industries musicales et la scène rap française est même l'une des plus visibles au niveau international. Comment le rap est-il né en France et comment s'est-il développé ? Qui a tiré profit de la commercialisation de ces chansons ? Pourquoi ce genre musical est-il si étroitement associé aux banlieues ? Qui sont les artistes qui l'ont promu, et en s'appuyant sur quelles ressources ? Pourquoi continue-t-il régulièrement à déchaîner les passions ? Émaillé de nombreux entretiens réalisés auprès de rappeurs, de DJ, d'animateurs, de professionnels de l'industrie du disque, etc., ce livre décrit comment l'émergence et l'inscription durable du rap en France ont été possibles. En s'intéressant aux artistes, mais aussi aux amateurs, en circulant des MJC des quartiers populaires aux bancs de l'Assemblée nationale, en observant les plateaux de télévision et les radios locales, Karim Hammou montre comment s'est imposée en France une nouvelle spécialité artistique, fondée sur une forme d'interprétation originale, ni parlée ni chantée : rappée.

Download or read book Protest Music in France written by Barbara Lebrun and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbara Lebrun traces the evolution of 'protest' music in France since 1981, exploring the contradictions that emerge when artists who take their musical production and political commitment 'seriously', cross over to the mainstream, becoming profitable and consensual. Contestation is understood as a discourse shaped by the assumptions and practices of artists, producers, the media and audiences, for whom it makes sense to reject politically reactionary ideas and the dominant taste for commercial pop. Placing music in its economic, historical and ideological context, however, reveals the fragility and instability of these oppositions. The book firstly concentrates on music production in France, the relationships between independent labels, major companies and the state's cultural policies. This section provides the material background for understanding the development of rock alternatif, France's self-styled 'subversive' genre of the 1980s, and explains the specificity of a 'protest' music culture in late-twentieth-century France, in relation to the genre's tradition in the West. The second part looks at representations of a 'protest' identity in relation to discourses of national identity, focusing on two 1990s sub-genres. The first, chanson néo-réaliste, contests modernity through the use of acoustic instruments, but its nostalgic 'protest' raises questions about the artists' real engagement with the present. The second, rock métis, borrows from North African and Latino rhythms and challenges the 'neutral' Frenchness of the Republic, while advocating multiculturalism in problematic ways. A discussion of Manu Chao's career, a French artist who has achieved success abroad, also allows an exploration of the relationship between transnationalism and anti-globalization politics. Finally, the book examines the audiences of French 'protest' music and considers festivals as places of 'non-mainstream' identity negotiation. Based on first-hand interviews, this section highlights the vocabulary of emotions that audiences use to make sense of an 'alternative' performance, unveiling the contradictions that underpin their self-definition as participants in a 'protest' culture. The book contributes to debates on the cultural production of 'resistance' and the representation of post-colonial identities, uncovering the social constructedness of the discourse of 'protest' in France. It pays attention to its nation-specific character while offering a wider reflection on the fluidity of 'subversive' identities, with potential applications across a range of Western music practices.

Download or read book Pour une analyse textuelle du rap fran ais written by Mathias Vicherat and published by L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2001 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Apparu au début des années quatre-vingt aux Etats-Unis puis en France, le rap constitue un mouvement musical singulier. S'inscrivant dans une dimension aussi bien esthétique, sociologique que philosophique il continue, malgré la réussite commerciale de certains de ses représentants, à demeurer un genre à part, stigmatisé. Ses principaux contempteurs soulignent, à travers leurs articles ou leurs prises de parole publique, à la fois la pauvreté artistique de ses formes d'épanouissement et le caractère stéréotypé, manichéen voire inepte des propos qu'il véhicule. Et pourtant une analyse fine des textes, couplée à une compréhension plus générale de leur dimension sociétale, incite à considérer le rap comme la mouvance musicale la plus importante de ces dernières années. Méritant plus que toutes autres la maxime de Victor Hugo selon laquelle " la musique c'est du bruit qui pense ", les paroles des rappeurs nous permettent de saisir les attentes et les inquiétudes d'une jeunesse dynamique et mobilisée. A travers l'étude des thèmes essentiels qui se dégagent des propos des artistes, cet ouvrage a pour ambition de restituer et de mettre en exergue la richesse " plurielle " qui anime le rap tel qu'il s'exprime en France. Forme avancée de " langagement ", il n'en finit pas d'interroger aussi bien les " catégories de l'esthétique " que nos représentations sociales les plus ancrées.
Download or read book Collective Participation and Audience Engagement in Rap Music written by David Diallo and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-28 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do rap MCs present their studio recorded lyrics as “live and direct”? Why do they so insistently define abilities or actions, theirs or someone else’s, against a pre-existing signifier? This book examines the compositional practice of rap lyricists and offers compelling answers to these questions. Through a 40 year-span analysis of the music, it argues that whether through the privileging of chanted call-and-response phrases or through rhetorical strategies meant to assist in getting one’s listening audience open, the focus of the first rap MCs on community building and successful performer-audience cooperation has remained prevalent on rap records with lyrics and production techniques encouraging the listener to become physically and emotionally involved in recorded performances. Relating rap’s rhetorical strategy of posing inferences through intertextuality to early call-and-response routines and crowd-controlling techniques, this study emphasizes how the dynamic and collective elements from the stage performances and battles of the formative years of rap have remained relevant in the creative process behind this music. It contends that the customary use of identifiable references and similes by rap lyricists works as a fluid interchange designed to keep the listener involved in the performance. Like call-and-response in live performances, it involves a dynamic form of communication and places MCs in a position where they activate the shared knowledge of their audience, making sure that they “know what they mean,” thus transforming their mediated lyrics into a collective and engaging performance.
Download or read book 1990 1999 Une d cennie de rap fran ais written by Abcdr du son and published by Marabout. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’Abcdr du Son continue de cultiver son obsession rap. Après le bel ouvrage sorti en 2019 pour fêter ses 20 ans d’existence, le webzine entreprend cette fois d’éclairer le premier âge d’or du rap français : celui des années 1990, décennie de son explosion. De Rapattitude – première compilation du genre – à KLR du Saïan Supa Crew, du Monde de demain de Suprême NTM à Si Dieu veut... de la Fonky Family, le rap français devient alors incontournable dans les bacs à disques, dans les médias et, plus largement, dans le paysage culturel. C’est avec recul et passion que cette montée en puissance est à découvrir. Elle s’explore à travers 200 disques commentés, par la rédaction de l’Abcdr du Son ou par les auteurs des oeuvres choisies. Les classiques d’IAM, MC Solaar, Ministère A.M.E.R., La Cliqua ou Lunatic côtoient des sorties qui n’ont pas bénéficié du même écho médiatique. Parfois singuliers, parfois énigmatiques, ces albums disent, eux aussi, quelque chose de cette effervescence. Discothèque idéale pour comprendre le genre et son impact dans l’Hexagone, l’ouvrage est aussi la rétrospective d’une époque. Événements marquants et transformation du genre témoignent d’une culture en plein bouillonnement, entre recherches esthétiques et inquiétudes politiques, goût de l’indépendance et soif de reconnaissance. Avec cette ambition d’éclairer les souvenirs de ceux qui avaient 18 ans en 1998 autant que de mettre entre les mains de la jeunesse d’aujourd’hui l’histoire d’une musique sans cesse en mouvement depuis plus de 30 ans. Lancé en 2000, L’Abcdr du Son est à bien des égards le fruit des années 1990 du rap français. Après avoir célébré le genre en 2019 avec l’ouvrage L’Obsession Rap, le webzine continue, plus de 20 ans après son lancement, à documenter l’actualité et l’histoire de la scène avec un engouement intact.
