Beyond Breaking Barriers

Unpack the cultural appropriation that whitewashed Country music.
Analyze lyrics to uncover hidden messages of resistance.

This episode is for:

Radical truth seekers who want to dismantle historical distortions.

Hip Hop heads yearning to explore across genres.
Saddle up for a  critical exposé  that will challenge everything you thought you knew about Country music.

Unsaddling Black Roots, Stolen Melodies & the Betrayal of Country Music

In this episode of "Beyond Breaking Barriers"  from the project titled "Special Issue on Hip Hop Feminism" authored by: Aria S. Halliday & Ashley N. Payne, we dive deep into the world of Hip Hop feminism, exploring its role in empowering Black girls and femmes. We unpack the key concepts, delve into the works of leading scholars, and celebrate the creativity and resilience of Black women rappers.

What futures of Hip Hop feminism can we see from both our academic and lived experiences? How can we combine our analytical frameworks with our love for Hip Hop and blackness to locate liberatory potential? The essays in this special issue highlight our ever-developing answers to these questions and the multiplicitous ways you, dear reader, will be encouraged to answer them, too.

Please Share this episode with your friends, family, & comrades who appreciate the power of music & culture!
