- This monograph (224 pp.) is the first book-length study of non-London-based hip-hop in the UK, and the fruit of several years of research Through themes of nationalism, history, subculture, politics, humour and identity, it explores multiple forms of politics in rap discourses from Wales, Scotland and England. Featuring a whole host of rappers and groups, it employs a range of musicological, linguistic and other theoretical tools to analyse the state of the nation through one of the most vibrant and urgent art forms.
