New Rap Music

-- First cultural study of the burgeoning world music phenomenon -- An insightful examination of how popular music has spread cultural forms throughout the world -- Explores the music of Peter Gabriel, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, the Kronos Quartet, Youssou N Dour and others From the Tibetan Buddhist and Native American influences in the music of Pauline Oliveros to the arresting blend of Jamaican dancehall, rap, and bhangra of Apache Indians, this ground-breaking work examines the rise of "world music" and "world beat". Musicologist Timothy D. Taylor draws on a wide variety of sources, from popular culture, interviews, liner notes, the Internet and the music itself, charting an accessible path through the issues and contradictions surrounding contemporary world music. Included in this volume are detailed discussions of such world musicians as the Kronos Quartet, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Youssou N Dour, Peter Gabriel, Johnny Clegg, Angelique Kidjo, Sheila Chandra, Apache Indian, Zap Mama and a host of others. Exploring the dynamics behind such collaborations as Paul Simon and Ladysmith Black Mombazo, Taylor addresses the effects these collaborations have on the music itself with particular emphasis on music authenticity and the expectations around it. In addition to looking at the ways western pop/rock appropriates the music from other cultures, he also demonstrates how these cross-cultural collaborations bring music and musicians from other cultures to a much wider audience as well as fashion new musics and identities through their innovative combinations of sounds and styles. Global Pop offers a fascinating and timely survey of popular music and its impact on contemporaryculture along with our ways of looking at and living in the world.

New, from the author of "How to Make and Sell Your Own Recording"--the book that revolutionized the recording industry! "A Music Business Primer" explores the ecology of the music industry. The symbiotic partnership between music businesses and the creativity and talent of musicians and performers is clearly described, for without the contributions of both, there is no music industry. "A Music Business Primer" contains chapters on how the business works, synopses of controversial industry lawsuits and incisive interviews with influential entrepreneurs such as Peter Gotcher, cofounder of Digidesign; Will Ackerman, cofounder of Windham Hill Records; and Wendy Day, founder of Rap Coalition. The music industry is in a state of flux. Artists, nonprofit associations and industry businesspeople are challenging many of the provisions in major label recording contracts and those marketing and sales practices that choke consumer access to recordings and competition from independent labels. Free file sharing challenges all music businesses to find methods to satisfy the demands of the public for music without destroying the basic principle of copyright law: artists should be paid for their creative works. All of these issues and more are explored in "A Music Business Primer.
