| Summary: | This paper explores an unprecedented artistic experience initiated by African rappers in 2007. Using the poems written by the Senegalese poet Léopold Sédar Senghor, they adapted them to rap music. This work resulted in the conception of a booklet, a CD and a DVD. It foregrounds an intermedial reception of rap that takes into account the multiple implicit and explicit relations that bind all the media used (literature, music, videography). Building on the theories of intermediality, this essay aims to show multiple processes of re-creation carried out by the artists on Senghor’s poems. |
