Transcultural Voices
2021,2022
Overview
This book presents the narratives and voices of young, mostly
male practitioners of hip hop culture in Delhi, India. The author
suggests that practitioners understand hip hop as both a
thing that can be appropriated and authenticated, made
real, in the local and global context and as a way that
enables them to transform their lives and futures in the rapidly
globalising urban environments of Delhi. The dancers, artists,
musicians and cultural theorists that feature in this book
construct a multitude of voices in their narratives to formulate
their 'own' transcultural voices within global hip hop. Through a
combination of linguistic ethnography, sociolinguistics and
discourse studies, the book addresses issues including gender and
sexuality, identity construction and global culture.
