Hiphop University: Working Bibliography
[Visit page to watch the video]
The primary aim of this Bibliography is to present references for Hiphop scholarship. We focus on work that includes pivotal theories as well as research methods and methodology. We seldom list a publication of someone’s opinions. The only exception is when an opinion publication is part of a larger initiative of the Hiphop Archive.
In addition to books, we list peer-reviewed articles, films, dissertations, theses, journals and salient magazine issues. Send recommendations to build our collection to the Associate Director of the Hiphop University Project.
Hard copies must be posted.
This particular site has been a research resource for students, educators and journalists for the past 7 years. Send us a message if you found it helpful, and remember to cite the Hiphop Archive, if you found something here that informed your paper or presentation.
We wish you a joyful and enriching research experience!

| Abstract/Synopsis: | Slingshot Hip Hop weaves together the stories of young Palestnians living in Gaza, the West Bank and inside Israel as they discover Hip Hop and employ it as a tool to surmount divisions imposed by occupation and poverty. We follow Tamer, Suhell, and Mahmoud of DAM, the first ever Palestinian Hip Hop group, from their early, awkward studio recordings, through the outbreak of the second Intifada, to fiery sold-out shows all over the world. Through DAM we meet Mahmoud Shalabi, an irreverent rapper from Akka, along with R&B singer Abeer and rap duo Arapeyat, rising female artists determined to express themselves. Meanwhile, Mohammed, Kan-aan and Mezo of PR have begun emulating DAM. Trapped in gaza, one of the most heavily populated places on earth, PR longs to escape its confines and finally meet their fellow rappers. From Separation Walls to gender norms, this is the story of young people crossing the borders that divide them. |
