In Soul in Seoul: Black Popular Music and K-pop, Crystal Anderson examines the most important and often overlooked aspect of K-pop: the music itself. She demonstrates how contemporary Korean popular music (K-pop) references and incorporates musical and performative elements of African American popular music culture as well as the ways that fans outside of Korea understand these references. K-pop emerged in the 1990s with immediate global aspirations, combining musical elements from Korean and foreign cultures, particularly rhythm and blues genres of black American popular music. Korean solo artists and groups borrow from and cite instrumentation and vocals of R&B genres, especially hip hop. They also enhance the R&B tradition by utilizing Korean musical strategies. These musical citational practices are deemed authentic by global fans, who function as part of K-pop's music press and promotional apparatus. K-pop artists also cite elements of African American performance in Korean music videos. These disrupt stereotyped representations of Asian and African American performers. Through this process K-pop has arguably become a branch of a global R&B tradition. Anderson argues that Korean pop groups participate in that tradition through cultural work that enacts a global form of crossover and by maintaining forms of authenticity that cannot be faked, and furthermore propel the R&B tradition beyond the black-white binary"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Popular music $z Korea (South) $x African American influences. 650 0 $a Popular music $z Korea (South) $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Popular music. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01071422 650 7 $a Popular music $x African American influences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01765997 651 7 $a Korea (South) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206791 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Anderson, Crystal S., $t Soul in Seoul $d Jackson : University Press of Mississippi, 2020. $z 9781496830111 $w (DLC) 2020010047 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317014416.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9444F0EC403511EB87AA299C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
