Discours rap-portés : analyse médiologique de l’interaction entre rap et littérature

Abstract

Abstract In this article, I will analyze French rap music as a form of “neolittérature.” Rap music actualizes literature both aesthetically and politically. Through media interaction, rap music spreads literary content across different channels and audiences. Therefore, literature enters into a new semantic and pragmatic context in which it is reformulated by new postcolonial actors. As a “postcolonial product,” French rap music re-thinks literature through a decolonial approach to build new histories that are more inclusive in today’s society.
