'Every Hood Has It's Own Style' -- 'Making an African out of the Computer': Globalization and Indigenization in Hiplife -- 'Empowering the Young': Hiplife's Youth Agency -- 'Society of the Spectacle': Hiplife and Corporate Recolonialization -- 'The Game': Hiplife's Counter-Hegemonic Discourse.

The Hiplife in Ghana explores one international site, Ghana, West Africa, where hip-hop music and culture has morphed over two decades into a whole new form of world music called hiplife. It investigates hiplife music not merely as an imitation and adaptation of hip-hop, but as a revision of Ghana's own century-old popular music called highlife. Local hiplife artists have evolved a five-phased indigenization process that has facilitated a dynamic youth agency transforming Ghanaian society. However these social shifts, facilitated by hiplife, have occurred within Ghana's 'corporate recolonization, ' serving as another example of neoliberalism's global free market agenda that has become a new form of colonialism. The text examines hiplife artists' complicity with these socio-economic forces, while also creating counter-hegemonic projects that challenge this socio-economic context and push aesthetics limits at the same time.
