Material Detail

Hip-hop has become relevant to the field of education because of its implica- tions for understanding language, learning, identity, curriculum, and other areas. This integrative review provides historical context and cohesion for the burgeoning and discursive body of hip-hop scholarship by framing it accord- ing to three heuristic categories and briefly discussing the strengths and weak- nesses for the field of education. The article then critically reviews three major strands of selected literature across these categories that are relevant to edu- cational research. Finally, the article outlines new directions for future research and corresponding theoretical perspectives and strategic methods. With these purposes, this review is intended to inform both researchers unfa- miliar with hip-hop and scholars who have centered hip-hop in their research agendas.
