In the stories recounting the early days of the rap scene in Montreal, actors of Haitian descent were particularly active on the rap scene: this is evident in rap texts, where frequent occurrences of Haitian Creole can be found. Considering this characteristic of Montreal rap, we propose a reflection on the issues around the visibility of Haitian migrants, and descendants of Haitian migrants, in Quebec public space by focusing on the practices and experiences of Montreal female rappers of Haitian descent. In this contribution, which aims at understanding the processes of hegemonization and minoritization at work in the Montreal and Quebec context, we will examine in particular how the vectors of differentiation involving language, “québéquicité” or gender, are manifested and reproduced in the media coverage of artistic productions.
