"What is Hip-Hop?" In order to answer this question, author Andrew
J. Rausch interviewed 24 individuals whose creative expressions are
intimately associated with the world of hip-hop music and culture.
Those interviewed include emcees, DJs, producers, graffiti artists,
poets, and journalists. Topics of these conversations cover the
careers of each of these people and their
contributions/affiliations with hip-hop, as well as their views on
different trends within the music. Intended as a celebration of
hip-hop music and culture, this collection of interviews ranges
from the up-and-coming (Akrobatik, Rob Kelly) to the legendary
(Chuck D, Big Daddy Kane). Also interviewed are Eric B., Black
Sheep Dres, Chip Fu, Michael Cirelli, Daddy-O, DJ JS-1, dream
hampton, Kokane, Kool Keith, Kool Rock Ski, Keith Murray, 9th
Wonder, Paradime, R.A. the Rugged Man, Sadat X, Shock G, Special
Ed, Spinderella, Sticky Fingaz, and Young MC. Because many of these
artists worked and performed in the so-called "golden age" of
hip-hop, they offer insights on the merits and problems of what
hip-hop has grown into today. From their candid observations, the
reader will understand how each of these men and women have
contributed to the culture and how each, in his or her own way, can
rightly answer "I AM hip-hop."
