Rebel Musics: Human Rights, Resistant Sounds, and the Politics of Music Making This book explores the intersection of music and politics, revealing how musical activism can be a powerful force for resistance and social change. First published in 2003, the revised edition offers a fascinating journey into a world where music and politics unite, featuring a wide range of artists and genres. From the explosive lyrics of hip hop to the driving rhythms of West African drumming, rebel musicians are using their music to mobilize movements for political change and social justice. This book delves into the world of rebel music, covering topics such as American blues, gospel, rock'n'roll cabaret, and free jazz, and shedding light on the ways in which music is being used to challenge global politics. With a new contribution by the editors and several new pieces from artists and scholars, this revised edition of Rebel Musics is a timely and thought-provoking exploration of the role of music in shaping our world.
