Description: "At the end of the Cold War, America's power became unmatched, its overwhelming military might and economic dominance defining the threshold of cultural existence. This book looks at how rap and metal, the two most pervasive popular music forms of the 1990s, have been highly engaged with America's role in the world, supercapitalism and their own role within it."--Jacket.
