"The rhythms of dancehall music reverberate in complicated ways throughout the lives of countless Jamaicans ... As the central role of the state in supporting communities has diminished, the rise of private efforts such as dancehall becomes all the more crucial ... Amidst all this, individual Jamaicans interact with the dancehall industry and its culture to find their own paths of employment, social identity, and sexual mores"--Back cover.
