Who Got the Camera?: A History of Rap and Reality Harvey Eric
Reality first appeared in the late 1980s--in the sense not of real life but rather of the TV entertainment genre inaugurated by shows such as Cops and America's Most Wanted; the daytime gabfests of Geraldo, Oprah, and Donahue; and the tabloid news of A Current Affair. Or, as legendary performers Ice Cube and Ice-T called it, "reality rap."Reality rap and reality TV were components of a cultural revolution that redefined popular entertainment as a truth-telling medium. In a bracing work of cultural criticism, Eric Harvey argues that reality TV emerged in dialog with another kind of entertainment that served as its foil while borrowing its techniques: gangsta rap.
While N.W.A.'s "Fuck tha Police" countered Cops' vision of Black Reality entertainment borrowed journalistic tropes but was undiluted by the caveats and context that journalism demanded.
