AfroColombian HipHop Globalization Transnational Music and Ethnic Identities by Christopher Dennis reveals how through a mode of transculturation AfroColombian youth are transforming U.S. hiphop into a more autonomous art form used for articulating oppositional social and political critiques reworking ethnic identities and actively taking part in the reimagining of the nation. This book represents a valuable addition to the body of academic work emerging from scholars bringing AfroColombian issues to the forefront of Colombian and Latin American studies specifically by documenting the contributions that todayampamprsquos young black artists are making to both national culture and local music practices.
