Descrição: With no ambition to provide a complete inventory, this article introducesthe reader to the ways in which Malcolm X and his legacy have been usedwithin US hip-hop music. The central argument is that US hip-hop artists,since the birth of hip-hop, have been participating in the processes ofreinventing Malcolm X and his legacy by not only casting him as a symbolof local African American resistance against racial inequalities, but alsoby fashioning him as a global Sunni Muslim revolutionary by creativelyname-, image-, or sound-dropping him in different sound and visual settings.More extensive usages mainly involve key quotes of Malcolm X orlengthy sound bites of classic speeches. The usage of certain iconic photosis comparable to key quotes as these are clearly meant to trigger establishedassociations. It is important to stress that the legacy of MalcolmX and his political theology within hip-hop culture goes beyond nationalborders, religious beliefs, and political goals.
