Abortion Here and Elsewhere

Abstract

In 1999, the French group Manau’s first album wins the prize of best Rap & Groove album of the year at the French ceremony of “Victoires de la Musique”?. The rap magazines, acting like entrepreneurs of ethic, criticize this judgment, arguing that Manau isn’t a rap group. This attempt to assign a status to artists shows the existence of a French “social world”? of rap, by working on its boundaries. To well understand this debate, we must study the outsiders of this social world, insofar as they contribute to produce its boundaries.
