| Sumario: | Multiple masculinity for mations among gangster rap and mainstream youth cultureThe article is about the white rapper Eminem and the way he constructs masculinities. The article is based on feminist, poststructuralist theory. It concentrates on Bronwyn Davies approach to discourse analysis. Davies develops concepts that describe the process of subjectification. The main concept is ‘positioning' understood as the discursive production of culturally intelligible selves. The findings of the analysis are that Eminem is developing a multiple, fictive self where ethnicity, class and masculinity intersect fluently and differently depending on the social interaction. Using stereotypes, often with irony, Eminem is telling stories about the white trash youth in America and uses hyper masculinity, protest masculinity, metro sexuality, black macho and white trash storylines. He is also making a reflective critique of the youth media of today. |
