""LaBennett is deeply attuned to her subjects. Together, researcher and research subjects explore the wide world around them: hip-hop culture, opportunities for mobility, sexual life, issues of risk, relationships with mom...it's all here! LaBennett develops incisive new interpretations of such concepts as 'play-labor' and 'authenticity.' She's Mad Real both joins a rich ethnographic literature and expands it in revealing politically conscious and hip ways.
