Review
Vibe is written as a song itself, which means it extends beyond the realm of higher academia. In fact, I argue that Vibe is a song that needs to be heard more by those outside of the ivory towers. -- Lauren Carpenter ― Southern Review of Books
The importance of this book cannot be understated. It should be required reading for any graduate program concerned about training socially conscious and methodologically sound scholars who endeavor to provide an authentic and fulsome accounting of any aspect of the social world: a uniquely sociological project that this book takes very seriously. -- Greg Wilson ― Sociology of Race and Ethnicity
Vibe was described by one reviewer as ‘a rare and gorgeous book.’ Another wrote:
‘I’ve never read a book like this. Miles’s approach to ethnography, theory, and feeling is extraordinary.’ The book’s use of autoethnography was praised for its effectiveness: ‘Miles uses autoethnography to great effect . . . grounding complex theory in personal and cultural context.’ The theoretical dimension was likewise lauded: ‘Miles adopts and generates theoretical insights that are timely, resonant, and deeply rooted in cultural critique.’ Vibe powerfully combines rigorous scholarship with poetic expression, offering a landmark contribution to sound studies and Black cultural research.
Vibe is an important exploration of the aesthetics of Black life and hip-hop in the rural American South. -- Dasan Ahanu, alumnus of the Nasir Jones Hiphop Fellowship at Harvard University and cofounder and managing director of Black Poetry Theatre
In a fresh and personable style, Corey J. Miles examines and theorizes trap music as a necessary emotional response to cyclical, racialized trauma. Vibe is a refreshing and needed addition to the growing body of hip-hop scholarship on the contemporary American South. -- Regina N. Bradley, author of Chronicling Stankonia: The Rise of the Hip-Hop South
Vibe is a lesson on emotions, hip-hop, the Black South, and storytelling. A must-read. -- B. Brian Foster, author of I Don't Like the Blues: Race, Place, and the Backbeat of Black Life
