Size: 5x0x8; Called the most insightful hip hop writer on the planet by Rolling Stone, Nelson George offers an insider's tour through a multimedia phenomenon of which rap music is only the audible manifestation, and also includes drugs, fashion, incarceration, basketball, entrepreneurship, technology, and language.

Hip Hop America shows us why, against all odds, hip hop has held a steady grip on American popular culture for over twenty years.
