Watch the following film and answer the corresponding questions in the discussion board in this module (forgive me if the time stamps are slightly off). The assignment cannot be completed without watching the film, Hip-hop: Beyond Beats and Rhymes - https://wncln.wncln.org/record=b11373310 1. Complete an assessment of the relevant stakeholders as it applies to a multinational record label specializing in the creation and distribution of Hip-hop. As per the film, how are these stakeholders prioritized currently? How would you reprioritize these stakeholders to be more ethical? 2.. On page 122 of our book, William Frederick proposes a formula for Ethical Business Behavior and describes it as such: Ethical Business Behavior = Rights + Justice + Utilitarianism If we were to argue that the creation and distribution of Hip-hop as described in the film is ethical, then what issues would we run into on the other side of the equation when factoring in concerns regarding Kantian Rights, Rawlsian Justice, and Utilitarianism? (I would make sure to have read the chapter before answering.) 3. Given that the consuming public, regardless of how we identify, is a relevant stakeholder in the record industry, what responsibility do we have for perpetuating violence, racism, and stereotypes? Respond to the following quotes from the perspective of a consumer. (a) "I think black men have internalized the messages this [Hip-hop] culture perpetuates which is that women are primarily sex objects and people to be fucked." (b) "Generally speaking black people do not believe that misogyny, and sexism, and violence against women are urgent issues. We still think that racism, police brutality, black male incarceration are the issues we should be concerned about." - Dr. Beverly Guy-Sheftall of Spelman College (c) "It's funny when I hear women say, "When these rappers are calling, you know, women bitches and hoes they not talking about me" It's like "Yo they are talking about you." If George Bush was to get on national TV and make a speech and he started calling black people niggers would you be like, "I don't know who George Bush is talking about, but he ain't talking about me." - Byron Hurt, Director 4. The rise, fall, and return of socially conscious Hip-hop is a fascinating story. Reflecting on William Fredrick's formula, if you were to start from scratch and produce from the ground up a socially conscious record label where would you start and how would you prioritize your energy?
