Rap music is often about the first person narrative point of view. When one listens to rap they are listening to a story about a person who, like any other author, comes from a specific community, in a specific time and a specific place. That community may be separated or distinguished from that of the listener by media, history, or experience, but in many ways they are still connected. The artist is, at the same time, a unique expression of the community they claim to represent (local perspective) and someone who is subject to the same generalizations when they are viewed from someone not of that community (visitor’s perspective).
Estimated time required: 1 class period.
Technology required for this lesson: Tablet or Smartphone.
