Description
The impact of hip hop on society over the last forty years is a story that continues to unfold. DJ Semtex examines the crucial role of hip hop in shaping the lives of disaffected youths from generation after generation. Featuring specially commissioned photography and seminal interviews with key artists, Semtex traces the course of hip hop from its origins in the early 1970s through its breakthrough to the mainstream and the advent of gangsta rap in the late 1980s. From its early days to the global industry it has become today, hip hop has been a powerful voice for the voiceless. DJ Semtex reflects on the positive influence it has had on his own life and the lives of those around him. This updated compact edition of Hip Hop Raised Me provides a unique insight into the world of hip hop, featuring contributions from some of the most influential artists of our time. With a wealth of photographs and insightful interviews, this book offers a fascinating look at the history and culture of hip hop.
