Reviews
"My students appreciate the accessible writing, comprehensive material, and in-depth coverage. They tell me that they learn things using this book that they had not known, even when they are deeply immersed in hip-hop culture... Rap and Hip Hop Culture is the best book on the topic I've found on the market."--Tobin Miller Shearer, University of Montana "Overall, I think Rap and Hip Hop Culture is one of the best on the market. The learning objectives, chapter summaries, study questions, thematic structure, key terms, pictures and website is what makes the book stand out from others in my opinion. I would recommend it to other professors."--DeReef Jamison, University of Alabama at Birmingham

Synopsis
Rap and Hip Hop Culture traces the ideological, social, historical, and cultural influences on a musical genre that first came to prominence in the mid-1970s in one of New York's toughest neighborhoods, the South Bronx. Orejuela describes how the arts of DJing, MCing, breakin' [b-boying], and graffiti developed as a way for this community's struggle to find its own voice. He addresses rap's early successes on the pop charts; its spread to mainstream culture; the growth of "gangsta rap" and mainstream society's reaction to it; the commercial success of rap music from the '90s through today; and the diffusion of hip hop throughout the world as a global phenomnenon. Throughout, this enlightening text highlights key performers, producers, and voices in the rap and hip hop movements, using their stories to illuminate the underlying issues of racism, poverty, prejudice, and artistic freedom that are part of rap and hip hop's ongoing legacy.
