Postcolonial Western Europe: General

Question 1

Hip hop

Answer 1

Significant in world outside US
Easily localised into different languages so could express marginalisation in different local contexts (Mitchell)
Most hip hop in other countries in local languages, including minority languages in very local contexts
Could be used well to rap about oppression, for example, or indigenous struggles (New Zealand, US and Canada, Maori and Native rappers)
Not just about racism - poverty also rapped about, especially France 1980s-1990s turn
Authenticity expected - rappers rapping about own life experiences
