Forged in the fires of the Bronx and Kingston, Jamaica, hip-hop has been a generation-defining global movement. In a post-civil rights era rapidly transformed by deindustrialization and globalization, hip-hop gave voiceless youths a chance to address these seismic changes, and became a job-making engine and the Esperanto of youth rebellion. Hip-hop crystallized a multiracial generation's worldview, and forever transformed politics and culture. But the epic story of how that happened has not been told...until now.
Jeff Chang Jeff Chang has been a hip-hop journalist for more than a decade and has written for The Village Voice, Vibe, Mother Jones, The Nation, The San Francisco Bay Guardian, URB, Rap Paes, and Spin. He lives in California.
