Thug Life: Race, Gender, and the Meaning of Hip-hop

by Michael Jeffries (Author)

Synopsis

Hip-hop has come a long way from its origins in the Bronx in the 1970s, when rapping and DJing were just part of a lively, decidedly local scene that also venerated break-dancing and graffiti. This book offers an unbiased examination of how hip-hop works in people's daily lives.
