Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hip hop is a global form of creative expression. In Cuba, Brazil, and Haiti, rappers refuse the boundaries of hip hop’s US genesis, claiming the art form as a means to empower themselves and their communities in the face of postcolonial racial and class violence. Despite the geographic and linguistic borders that separate these artists, Charlie Hankin finds in their music and lyrics a common understanding of hip hop’s capacity to intervene in the public sphere and a shared poetics of neighborhood, nation, and transatlantic yearnings. Situated at the critical intersection of sound studies and Afro-diasporic poetics, Break and Flow draws on years of ethnographic fieldwork and collaboration, as well as an archive of hundreds of songs by more than sixty hip hop artists. Hankin illuminates how new media is used to produce and distribute knowledge in the Global South, refining our understanding of poetry and popular music at the turn of the millennium.

Book excerpt: With roots that stretch from West Africa through the black pulpit, hip hop emerged in the streets of the South Bronx in the 1970s and has spread to the farthest corners of the earth. "To the Break of Dawn" uniquely examines this freestyle verbal artistry on its own terms. A kid from Queens who spent his youth at the epicenter of this new art form, music critic William Jelani Cobb takes readers inside the beats, the lyrics, and the flow of hip hop, separating mere corporate rappers from the creative MCs that forged the art in the crucible of the street jam.The four pillars of hip hop - break dancing, graffiti art, deejaying, and rapping - find their origins in traditions as diverse as the Afro-Brazilian martial art Capoeira and Caribbean immigrants' turnstile artistry.

Book excerpt: "Break and Flow: Hip-Hop Poetics in Brazil, Cuba, and Haiti" introduces an archive I have built of hundreds of rap songs to analyze hip-hop as a source for unprecedented "information trafficking," as Brazilian rappers put it. Ubiquitous in Global South cities, hip-hop has received recent scholarly attention as an expression of the African diaspora. Few studies, however, explore its implications as a community writing project. Drawing on two years total of ethnographic fieldwork, formal analysis, and critical theory, I argue that hip-hop functions as a resource for performing transnational poetic citizenship around colonial legacies of place, writing, and time. Part one, "World Hip-Hop: Uprooting and Marginality," treats rap as a history- and place-making project. I argue that the decolonial histories that circulate about and through hip-hop point to cosmopolitan notions of urban marginality that eschew resurgent nationalisms. Part two, "Writing: Literacy and Violence," analyzes how artists establish new poetic genealogies and redefine rap as a writing project. Engaging with scholarship on the politics of literacy, I demonstrate the way rap disavows the colonial violence of letters and urbanization. Part three, "Deixis: Raplove and Yearning," considers rap's political implications. First, I explore antecedents in Afro-Caribbean poetic and religious practices and European ars poetica for the recursive gesture I call raplove (rapping about rap). Finally, I turn to black feminist and market yearnings--for better worlds and material earnings. At the intersection of sound studies and Afro-diasporic poetics, "Break and Flow" aims to shed light on how knowledge is produced and distributed in the Global South by means of new media to refine our understanding of poetry and popular music at the turn of the millennium.
