Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis representasi budaya gangsta dalam lagu-lagu pilihan oleh grup rap N.W.A. dalam album mereka Straight Outta Compton. Dengan menggunakan metode deskriptif-analitik, penelitian ini menganalisis lirik yang merepresentasikan budaya gangsta dalam lagu-lagu tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan teori semiotika Roland Barthes dan teori representasi Stuart Hall. Teori semiotik digunakan untuk menganalisis denotasi, konotasi, dan mitos di dalam lirik. Kemudian, analisis semiotik digunakan untuk menganalisis representasi budaya gangsta dalam lagu-lagu terpilih. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa representasi budaya gangsta dapat dilihat melalui penyebutan kriminal, penyerangan, penggunaan senjata api, pembunuhan, peredaran narkoba, penyalahgunaan narkoba, penyalahgunaan alkohol, identitas sosial, materialisme, dan kebencian terhadap wanita. Dari karakteristik tersebut, peneliti menemukan beberapa aspek yang merepresentasikan budaya gangsta; pentingnya reputasi dan rasa hormat, jenis obat yang diterima dan tidak diterima, peran alkohol, kebencian terhadap wanita, dan cara menghasilkan uang di budaya gangsta. Dengan penelitian ini, diharapkan pembaca dapat menemukan wawasan tentang bagaimana budaya gangsta direpresentasikan dalam lagu-lagu yang dipilih. Terakhir, diharapkan hasil penelitian ini dapat memberikan kontribusi bagi kajian budaya khususnya pada topik budaya gangsta dalam lagu rap. Juga diharapkan dapat bermanfaat bagi peneliti sebagai referensi untuk penelitian yang akan datang. **** This study aims to analyze the representation of gangsta culture in selected songs written by rap group N.W.A. in their album Straight Outta Compton.
