I asked a local, living here in Oakland California why the big sound and big music that causes the back end of the junkers to vibrate with rap as they drove down the street. He told me it was men broadcasting who had the biggest sound to other men (not attracting the attention of women is one my hypothesize). It wasn't about spreading a rap religion. I've tried it a couple of times with my own music (Arab music in the Latino section, Pink Martini in the white and perfect 'hoods) and am secretly convinced it's about making one's presence known- it's a mild form of terrorism. It's like, "I'm going to force you to listen to my sound." It's a way of disrupting the bonds of community. This little device is about proselytization, rap music in a back end is about something else. The key question is...do all communities find it disruptive or is there perhaps someone who takes comfort in it as simply "the sounds of life?"
