dc.description.notesThe focus of this chapter has been to examine how particular types of racial recognition foster certain kinds of self-in-process identifications in an underground hip-hop context. As the precarious and contingent nature of much of what I have described illustrates, this is nothing if not complicated terrain. A closing note on the racial and relational performances-of-selves I have sought to theorize here concerns the potential for widely recognized norms of identification to become self-fulfilling prophecies. In interactional exchanges such as those outlined above, the demands associated with expected behavior(s) are either realized or not realized through a dialectic between their (subjective) self-recognition as a basis of identification and their (objective) recognition by others as a basis for treatment. In the case of the ethnographer mistaken for an emcee, it was this treatment that foremost stimulated the transition from misrecognition to recognition.en
