Good times and endless love: Billboard R&B/Hip Hop songs of the year across social and economic conditions
Weed Land: Inside America's Marijuana Epicenter and How Pot Went Legit
Satan, Sinners, and Damnation: Religion and Heritage in the Contemporary Southern Rock Music Revival
Southern rock revival musicians find themselves in an artistically contradictory situation. Revivalists celebrate the traditional culture and songwriting styles of the southeastern United States, yet they also embody the rebellious deviance of southern masculinity that includes rejecting the fundamental Christianity that is traditionally central to the region’s cultural heritage. Musicians reconcile this contradiction with lyrics about sinning wi…
Gone country: An investigation of Billboard country songs of the year across social and economic conditions in the United States
Researchers have found that within the unfolding trends in pop culture, both pop music and the artists who perform pop songs vary predictably according to socioeconomic conditions. Popular songs are longer, slower, more lyrically meaningful, and in more somber sounding keys during difficult social and economic times. Furthermore, male and more mature-looking pop music performers are more successful during difficult economic times. In the current …
Youth Migration, Stratification and State Policy in Post‐Soviet Russia
In principle, the fall of the Soviet Union brought democratic capitalism to the Russian people. In practice, during the post‐Soviet era power elites influence state policies governing social processes like migration to protect their power from democracy and shield their economic status from free market competition. Manipulating policy stalls social mobility and reinforces stratification as many Russian migrants, most of whom are young and poor, c…
Gendering Truck Driving Songs: The Cultural Masculinization of an Occupation
Our analysis of more than a thousand songs about truck driving uncovers how cultural discourse defines an occupation as inherently for men. First, trucker songs essentialize the work as most suited for men by depicting male truckers as born to drive, and whose innate need to drive big rigs often resembles an addiction. Second, the songs imbue the occupation with masculine valor by glorifying instances of male truckers as overcoming the dangers of…
Rebel Manhood: The Hegemonic Masculinity of the Southern Rock Music Revival
Southern men occupy a contradictory place in U.S. culture as the rest of the country stereotypes them as backwards and deviant, yet simultaneously celebrates Southern males as quintessential exemplars of American manhood. I explore this contradiction using interviews with musicians, participant observation of concerts, and an ethnographic content analysis of contemporary Southern rock lyrics and websites. I find marginalized men embrace a Souther…
