What kinds of hustles are shown in hip-hop music, and how do they show how poor people really live? How has hip-hop provided a framework for understanding the relationship between poverty and hustling?

Hip-Hop Research Proposal

Introduction

Hip-hop music has been a significant cultural force for more than four decades, providing a forum for black and brown voices to communicate who they are, their problems, and their reality. One of the recurring ideas in hip-hop is the representation of hustling and grinding one’s way to the top despite the challenges and competition that stand in the way. On the other hand, how hip-hop shows hustling has often been criticized for making illegal activities look cool and for spreading negative stereotypes about people of color, especially black and brown people.

The purpose of this research is to investigate the connections that can be drawn between hip-hop, hustling, and poverty. It says hip-hop has given us a way to understand the many different parts of the hustle, including the social, economic, and political reasons why people do it. This framework was provided by hip-hop. At the same time, society has made it illegal for people to hustle on the street, thereby supporting the notion that a person’s mistakes and not flaws in the system are the only causes of poverty.

This study will examine how hip-hop artists have busted these myths and show what hustling in low-income areas is like. The research examines the lyrics, music videos, and interviews with several hip-hop musicians to figure out the messages and themes of the hustle in hip-hop music.

Research Questions

What kinds of hustles are shown in hip-hop music, and how do they show how poor people really live?

How has hip-hop provided a framework for understanding the relationship between poverty and hustling?

How has society criminalized those who hustle in the streets, and what are the consequences of such criminalization?

How have hip-hop artists changed the way people think about the hustle, and what do they say about what life is really like in poor areas?

Law Question

Alan recently bought his dream vacation home in the mountains, a “fixer-upper” with a deck that jutted out over the river. During the summer and fall he worked on outdoor repairs, including replacing many, but not all, of the rotted railings on the wooden deck. In January, Alan invited his friend Todd, a licensed electrician, to his home for the weekend. They planned for Todd to do some needed indoor wiring and for both of them to get in some skiing.

After working indoors all day, Todd was relaxing on the outdoor deck. When Todd leaned against the railing it felt a little loose and wobbly, but he straddled the railing to get a better view of the icy river. Within thirty seconds, the railing gave way and Todd fell into the water. Alan heard a scream and a crash, raced outside, and saw that the railing had collapsed. As Alan ran down the steps he yelled to his wife to call 911.

Alan jumped into the water but could not rescue Todd. Within ten minutes the Township Volunteer Emergency Squad arrived. The only means of reaching the men was from the river bank. The ambulance did not have any rescue ropes on board, but did have a ladder. One Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), Larry, waded into the river with the ladder to try to reach the men, but he tripped and was swept away by the current. Since the ambulance was not equipped with any means of rescue, the second EMT immediately called the 911 operator to ask for the firefighters’ assistance.

The firefighters arrived forty-five minutes later, because the 911 operator had given them the incorrect address. Upon arrival, the firefighters used their 200-foot long ropes and rescued all three men.

All three men suffered permanent physical injury as a result of being in the water for more than thirty minutes. They file suit. They learn during discovery that there is no specific, state-mandated requirement for equipping an ambulance with 200-foot long rescue ropes and that the Emergency Squad receives some funding from the Township.

Prepare a memorandum discussing all causes of action against the 911 operator, the EMT and the Emergency Squad.
