In the context of a polarized political climate, feminism experienced a notable resurgence in mainstream popular music during the 2010s. This phenomenon warrants exploration, as it sheds light on the evolving dynamics of gender, feminism, and woman-identified artists in mediated popular music. By engaging with feminist theory and previous research on the intersection of gender and music, this book aims to unravel the significance of current trends related to gender, feminism, and woman-identified artists.
Throughout the book, a range of examples are presented to illustrate these trends. These examples encompass Netflix documentaries by Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Taylor Swift, the Swedish music industry's #MeToo petition #närmusikentystnar, efforts by music streaming services to promote gender equality, and the project Keychange, which aims to bring underrepresented genders to the forefront of the music industry.
The volume delves into the media specificity of these examples, introducing and explaining feminist theories and concepts while also analyzing the position of women, gender politics, and feminisms in popular music. By examining these trends, the book offers valuable insights into the complex interplay between music, culture, and societal attitudes toward gender and feminism.
In conclusion, the popularity of feminism in mainstream popular music during the 2010s reflects a broader shift towards greater gender equality and recognition of woman-identified artists. This phenomenon warrants further investigation and analysis as it contributes to our understanding of the evolving landscape of gender and music in contemporary society.
