Roc The Mic Right - The Language of Hip Hop Culture.

This volume explores the central role of language within the Hip Hop Nation (HHN). Alim focuses on discursive practices, such as narrative sequencing and ciphers, or lyrical circles of rhymers. Often a marginalized phenomenon, the complexity and creativity of Hip Hop lyrical production is emphasised along with the creation of a schema by which to understand its aesthetic.
