This book is a comparative study of the rap scenes in Greece and America, and provides one of the first English-language studies of Greek hip hop culture. Focusing mainly on the analysis of lyrics, the book addresses issues of gender, class and race. Putting these lyrics in the broader context of white supremacist capitalist patriarchy, the book situates Greek and American hip hop scenes in the context of phenomena such as the prison-industrial complex, police violence, and Black Lives Matter. The book also provides a history of hip hop in Greece.
