An ethnographic study of hip hop, identity, and social space in São Paulo
Grounded in more than five years of anthropological fieldwork in São Paulo, D. Pardue’s study examines Brazilian hip hop through the intersecting forces of race, class, gender, and territory. The book positions hip hoppers as active participants in shaping their own histories and daily realities, rather than as figures defined from the outside. As an English-language ethnography of Brazilian hip hop, it brings cultural practice and social analysis together around questions of voice, representation, and urban life.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Readers interested in Brazilian hip hop and rap studies
- Students of anthropology, cultural studies, or urban studies
- Those exploring race, class, gender, and territorial identity in Brazil
