N2  - This article explores the gender practices of Taiwan’s male-dominated rap scene, with particular attention to the sonic, textual, and ritual reverberations of Confucian ideologies. In the context of shifting gender roles driven by dramatic sociopolitical and economic change over the course of the past two and a half decades, I argue that artists reimagine and refashion Confucian gender regimes and notions of intra-group hierarchy to create critical new spaces for male sociality, avenues for male self-empowerment, and opportunities for the articulation of masculine identities not otherwise audible in Taiwan’s popular music
