This work is a revealing chronicle of Hip Hop culture from its
beginnings three decades ago to the present, with an analysis of
its influence on people and popular culture in the United States
and around the world. From Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five's
"The Message," to Jay-Z, Diddy, and 50 Cent, Hip Hop Culture is the
first comprehensive reference work to focus on one of the most
influential cultural phenomena of our time. Scholarly and
streetwise, backed by statistics, documents, and research, it
recounts three decades of Hip Hop's evolution, highlighting its
defining events, recordings, personalities, movements, and ideas,
as well as society's response. How did an inner-city subculture,
all but dismissed in the early 1980s, become the ruler of the
world's airwaves and iPods? Who are the players who moved Hip Hop
from the record bins to the pinnacles of entertainment, business,
and fashion? Who are the founders, innovators, legends, and major
players? Authoritative and authentic, Hip Hop Culture provides a
wealth of information and insights for students, educators, and
anyone interested in the ways pop culture reflects and shapes our
lives.
