"“Unflinchingly, the authors move us the beyond the spectacle of dope music, beyond rigid disciplinary logic that constrains our imagination, to a place where our bodies can no longer ignore how hood Black women provide us all with important ways of living and being otherwise.The Sociology of Cardi B is the interlude to Black feminist sociology. It gives us space to attend to the loudest and quietest parts of Cardi so that we may hear alternative paths to freedom.” Corey J. Miles, author of Vibe: The Sound and Feeling of Black Life in the American South “The Sociology of Cardi B unequivocally demonstrates the necessity of centering multiple marginalized women in sociological analysis and of humbly learning to trust them as expert knowledge producers. Deeply intersectional and with rich sociohistorical contextualization, it is theoretically informative, methodologically instructive, and an absolute pleasure to read.” Jennifer Patrice Sims, author of The Fallacies of Racism, Mixed-Race in the US & UK, and The Sociology of Harry Potter “The Sociology of Cardi B updates traditional conversations about Black womanhood by applying new insights and methodology (e.g. “Trap Feminism”) to frame the complexities of Black women’s lives and livelihoods. A fresh and accessible must read for both fans and critics of rapper Cardi B alike.” Regina N. Bradley, author of Chronicling Stankonia: the Rise of the Hip Hop South ""This book illustrates trap feminism by using Cardi B as a subject. Whether confronting Nicki Minaj at a fashion show or decrying Black women’s sexual harassment in the music industry, Cardi B’s trap feminism is grounded in a ‘hood chick standpoint. This timely volume is essential for Black feminist scholars and hip-hop heads alike.""
