AADS 3310:Introduction to Hip Hop Studies

3 Class Hours 0 Laboratory Hours 3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: Completion of 30 credit hours
This course is an introduction to Hip Hop Studies. Students will learn the pillars of Hip Hop, map its development from an urban youth culture in New York to a global phenomenon, and use Hip Hop to interrogate shifting ideas of race, gender, and identity in the 20th and 21st centuries. Through an interdisciplinary framework consisting of readings (both critical and creative), music, film, and television, students investigate the implications of the commodification and consumption of Hip Hop Culture.
