This paper contains the actualization of resistance symbols contained in the performances of Trahgali Soulja, a hip-hop music group based in Surakarta. This includes reviewing the audience’s response to the music performed. The problems that arise are (1) the efforts of the Soulja Trahgali music group in constructing the symbols of resistance, (2) the form of actualization of ideas or the construction of symbols through the stage actions performed by Trahgali Soulja that illustrate the ideology of resistance, and ( 3) audience’s response to the stage action offered by Trahgali Soulja. The production and packaging of Trahgali Soulja’s performances are carried out on the backstage/back region - including the discovery of musical ideology, the process of interpreting the ideology of resistance, and the behind-the-scene communications among players. Then a scenario for the performance is employed in the stage action on the front stage/front region, and of course there are elements to support the performances being prepared. The positive response is shown by the audience with the emergence of the Red Ax Soldier community which supports the entire behavior of Trahgali Soulja, and not even rarely did this community adopt the musical behavior of Trahgali Soulja. In addition, social media such as Facebook, YouTube and Instagram also become the showrooms for this group’s hip-hop songs.Keywords: actualization, symbol of resistance, hip-hop music performances, trahgali soulja.

Internet is one of the newest medias that has been commonly used by the public. One of the problems which has been happening very often lately is the misuse of the internet mostly done by teenagers in Indonesia on social media, where social media is often used as a tool of cyberbullying. This fact is the main reason why the creators made an event that is also a campaign to spread awareness and invitation to not do cyberbullying with the social media influencers and teenagers as our main target audience. The event was a fashion show mixed with theatre acting and hip hop music. The main theme shown for this fashion show is Street Style with a touch of hip hop music because lately, hip hop is one of the popular music genres among society, especially the young people. Hip hop is considered to be a popular genre because it is known for its critical lyrics with deep meanings. The creators use theories such as Event Management Theory, Fashion Show Theory, Music Theory, Theatrical Theory, Social Criticism Theory, Social Message Theory, Cyberbullying Theory and Social Media Theory. The main theories that are used are Campaign Theory and K. Berlo's Communication Theory. The creators held this event entitled “TRUCE" which means The True Elucidation of Cyberbullying. The creators hope that this event will have an effect in the eyes of the general public and prevent themselves to not do cyberbullying.

PurposeInfluencers market products for tobacco companies on social media. This is the first study to systematically examine leading cigar brands’ use of influencers on their brand Instagram pages.MethodsWe identified 24 leading cigar brands, using July 2017–June 2018 US retail data. We identified cigar brands that had official appearing Instagram pages, with at least one influencer in the past 20 posts. We coded characteristics of the past three posts from each of five brand pages that contained influencers, such as setting and what the influencer was doing. Finally, we described influencer characteristics.ResultsApproximately one-third of the 24 brands had official Instagram accounts with at least one influencer in the past 20 posts. We identified 28 influencers, typically people of colour from the hip-hop music industry, some with millions of followers. Influencers included Bella Thorne (@bellathorne), Shaquille O’Neal (@shaq) and T.I. (@troubleman31). Brands’ posts that contained influencers showed the influencer using/holding a product, wearing branded merchandise or appearing in photos with a brand watermark. Three brands’ pages posted sponsored event photos (ie, concerts and events using branded backgrounds).DiscussionCigar brands commonly use influencers to market their products on brand Instagram pages. Results are consistent with previous findings that cigar companies’ marketing may target younger African Americans and highlight the potential utility of education campaigns that similarly engage influencers.

The Way

Waikīkī is a world-renowned leisure destination; at least, that is the image flung vehemently around the world about Hawaii. This framing of Hawaii as paradisiac is parasitic, it eats away and denigrates the enduring relationship that Hawaii the land and the people have. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a shift in the way our home feels. Tourism, a self-proclaimed necessity of Hawaii’s economy, was not only put on hold, it was essentially eliminated. Through this project I would like to present pre/post-colonialist modalities of Hawaii, to contest and disarm this space densely affected by militourism. Hawaii has been framed as a leisure destination first by colonialists and much later by hip hop music. My approach to contesting these projections is to refuse this notion and feature lines from songs, chants and prayers related to Waikīkī which are pre/postcolonial and have been influenced by colonialism through hip hop.

K-pop, Korean popular music, is a central component in Korea’s cultural exports. It helps brand Korea, and through sponsorships and tie-ups, generates attention for Korea that goes well beyond the music and media industries. This essay traces the history of Korean popular music, from its emergence in the early decades of the twentieth century, through the influence of America on South Korea’s cultural development and the assimilation of genres such as rap, reggae, punk, and hip hop, to the international success of Psy’s ‘Gangnam Style’ and the idol group BTS. It explores the rise of entertainment companies, how they overcame the digital challenge, and how their use of restrictive contracts created today’s cultural economy. It introduces issues of gender and sexuality, and outlines how music videos and social media have been used to leverage fandom.

Chapter 5 explores the transnational dimensions of racial imaginings through the vision of Brazil as a mixed-race tropical paradise in both U.S. and Brazilian productions. U.S. hip-hop music videos such as Snoop Dogg and Pharrell’s “Beautiful” (2003), will.i.am’s “I Got It from My Mama” (2007), and the Hollywood film Fast Five (2011) exploit Brazil’s image as a racial paradise and a site of black male independence, based on its reputation as a racial democracy with a large mixed-race population and the imagery of the Brazilian mulata. The chapter ends with how the Brazilian state presented the Rio 2016 Olympics bidding process and the London 2012 handover ceremony on a global stage through images of multiculturalism.
