Construction of Social Identities in Guinea Bissau Through Rap: Rhythm and Poetry
Marcia Aparecida da Silva Leão
(Dinâmia ́CET - IUL – ISCTE, Brazil)
Abstract: Hip hop is the Society through its messages, and it is through those involved and those inserted in this culture, that we can reflect it, in its policies. His history was marked by eminent social problems that from the beginning allowed debates about local realities. He walked a path marked by inequalities, in which the abandonment of public management allowed the development of the social movement that talks with the past, through the African tradition and, with the present, highlighting in rap the political potential and influencer in the way of acting and thinking of young Guineans. In this context, its protagonists sought the opportunity to create and develop elements of artistic and political expression, fostering with this, the social organization of the less favored in Guinea Bissau.
