- Description
- The author explores young black women's engagement with hip hop culture, often seen as a culture that is masculinist, misogynistic and mystifying. She questions the impacts of hip hop's increasing alliance with the sex industry, the rise of groupie culture in the hip hop world, the impact of hip hop's compulsory heterosexual culture on young black women and the permeation of the hip hop ethos into young black women's conceptions of love and romance.
