Aqui mando yo: Negotiating Narratives of Caribbean Heteronormativity in Contemporary Reggaeton Music Video

这个项目探索了加勒比海文化研究中一个以前被忽视的领域，考察了当代摄政者S对植根于该地区殖民历史的异质叙事的反抗。通过将系统的功能镜头应用于古巴、波多黎各和多米尼加共和国的雷格顿艺术家的音乐视频，它同时投资于他们为在全球资本主义时代驾驭当地、海外和国际市场所采取的视觉和音乐战略。最终，它打破了现有的学术观点，认为雷格顿音乐视频中的视听表达为干预加勒比海他者的霸权意识形态创造了一个空间。

Exploring a previously neglected area in Caribbean cultural studies, this project examines contemporary reggaetoner@s' enactment of resistance to heteronormative narratives rooted in the region's colonial past. By applying a systemic functional lens to music videos of reggaeton artists in and/or from Cuba, Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic, it simultaneously invest igates the visual and musical strategies they take in order to navigate local, diasporic and international markets in an age of global capitalism. Ultimately, it breaks with existing scholarship to argue that audiovisual expression in reggaeton music video creates a space for intervention in hegemonic ideologies of Caribbean otherness.
