Today’s conversation is with Kevin Holt, who teaches in the Department of Music at Stony Brook University. His research blends historical study, cultural studies, and the place of hip hop in contemporary race, politics, and identity discourse. In this conversation, we discuss the importance of musicological research in Black Studies, the expansive meaning and significance of hip hop, and the place of local and regional histories in cultural studies.
