24 Bars to Kill: Hip Hop, Aspiration, and Japan's Social Margins - Dance and Performance Studies
Andrew B. Armstrong
Contrary to persistent depictions of an ethnically and economically homogeneous Japan, “ghetto” or “gangsta” J-hop music gives voice to the suffering, deprivation, and social exclusion experienced by many modern Japanese. 24 Bars to Kill gives a fascinating ethnographic account of this music as well as the subculture around it.
