"In the Ghetto, Life no easy for we": The Construction and Negotiation of Identity in Ajegunle Raga.

Ogunbowale, Mopelolade Oreoluwa 03 July 2012 (has links)
This thesis is an investigation into the historical evolution of Ajegunle Raga, a reggae form developed within an urban ghetto in Lagos called Ajegunle and the construction and negotiation of identities therein. The research further argues that Ajegunle Raga is a home-grown oppositional music subculture that draws inspiration from diasporic musical subcultures like Reggae and Hip Hop but retains a genuine representation of Ajegunle in its tales of survival, poverty, marginalization and expressions of creativity within the ambience of the music.
