Abstract:

This article discusses the results of a research-intervention based in the clinical psychosocial approach performed with young Brazilian and French rappers, between 13 and 27 years old. Our objective is to analyze the function of rap, as artistic mediation, for the young inhabitants of unfavored urban areas. The field research was realizedthe participant observation and interviews in both countries. Our analysis show that rap is used by the youth to think about the world which surrounds them and to act over the representations and negative social imaginary which they are associated with, aiming for acknowledgement of a positive place in society. Through this artistic expression they become able to accomplish new social and subjective experiences in the social scenario. Rap is also a support for the formation of kin groups and social bonds among young inhabitants of different suburbs of the world. Therefore, we attempt to contribute for the discussion concerning the collective and singular dimension of health practices, constitutive of a clinic that does not limit itself to standard technical procedures or to biologically-based scientific knowledge.
