A presente dissertação tem como intuito investigar e refletir acerca da evolução
da cobertura mediática face à música rap em Portugal, focando o caso concreto do
jornalismo especializado. Trata-se de uma viagem longa, que implica considerar os
conceitos de discriminação e estereótipo.
O rap começou numa tentativa urgente de dar voz às minorias e acabou por mover
uma legião de ouvintes e apoiantes que se identificam com cada letra. A princípio, não
tendo abertas para muito mais, o rap estava associado a um grupo onde a rua era o palco
onde cantavam, movidos pela crescente necessidade de se fazerem ouvir. Hoje, ganhou
espaço não só nos grandes palcos, mas também nos media.
A abordagem dos meios de comunicação em relação ao rap sofreu mutações e o
nosso objetivo passa por analisar como e porquê. Para isso foram realizadas entrevistas a
profissionais da área. Entre as conclusões do trabalho destaca-se que a atenção crescente
por parte dos media não pode ser dissociada do crescimento do seu público. Depois de
resistências iniciais, relacionadas com estereótipos e preconceitos, este género musical
parece agora ter adquirido novos espaços importantes para a sua afirmação.
The following dissertation aims to investigate and reflect on the evolution of media coverage of Portuguese rap music, focusing primarily on specialised journalism, where it is important to mention the concepts of discrimination and stereotype. Rap has its origin on the urgent attempt to speak for minorities, which has lead to a global movement of supporters who identify themselves with each individual lyric. In the early days, without much visibility, rap culture was performed in the street, without the need for a stage, as they were driven by the ability to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves. Today, rap has gained notoriety, not only on the biggest stages but also in the media. The media approach towards rap has undergone major changes over the past years, and our purpose is to analyze how and when they happened. For that, and to give this study a better insight of this persistent changes, many artists in the field were interviewed. Among the conclusions of this study, it is highlighted that the growing media attention cannot be dissociated from the growth of its audience. After countless initial resistances, usually associated with stereotypes and concepts, rap music has now made its place known in the world we live in today.
