Content

'Renegades' interrogates the roles that Dubsmash, social media, and hip hop music and dance play in youth identity formation in the US. It explores why Generation Z - so-called Zoomers - use social media dance apps to connect, how they use them to build relationships, how race and other factors of identity play out through these apps, how social media dance shapes a wider cultural context, and how community is formed in the same way that it might be in a club. These Zoomer artists - namely D1 Nayah, Jalaiah Harmon, TisaKorean, Brooklyn Queen, Kayla Nicole Jones, and Dr Boffone's high school students - have become key agents in culture creation and dissemination in the age of social media dance and music. These Black artists are some of today's most influential content creators, even if they lack widespread name recognition. This book tells their stories.
