Rap as art and a way of sublimation, like or following the example of intellectual activity? This creation of sound and scenery, a new form of expression, exchange or communion gives anyone who’s willing to listen an additional chance to encounter the contemporary adolescent psyche. Using sociological perspectives sparingly, we will instead investigate more deeply the bodily roots and emphasize the elaborative potential of rap. The fact remains that its paths, meanderings, waverings, forking paths and orbits diverge and move away, irreducibly no doubt, from those of earlier generations.
Our world is nevertheless a shared one; more and more interconnected, overlapping, interpenetrating. A formidable era, wherein the teen is more and more in the adult, more than anywhere else.
