O rap no campo : uma etnografia do hip-hop, arte e trabalho dos jovens na Chapada Diamantina

Abstract

This exploratory research contributes to the studies of rural youth and hip-hop as a youth movement, marginal and political culture that becomes a tool for the expression of identity and autonomy of youth in Chapada Diamantina. Studies on rural youth and hip-hop is a theme that holds a vast field of knowledge within the universe of academic research. Questions are raised about what are the trajectories and stigmas that at some point can fall on social actors, what are the starting points that built a hip-hop cultural movement in a peasant locality and, finally, but not least importantly, how the participants of the culture through the agency use this marginalized art as work and income. The methodology of this monograph will consist of three fundamental parts: bibliographic research, ethnographic research and interviews with young people from the hip-hop movement in Seabra-BA and Vale do Capão, Palmeiras-BA. The research results show the relationships that the social category of rural youth in Chapada Diamantina is fostering. A new cultural circuit produced by young people who create and maintain a marginalized art characteristic of rural life, treading new ways of working and fighting prejudice and stigma.
