My biggest complaint about this is mostly stylistic: for someone who's supposedly a journalist, this guy has horrible journalistic style. He constantly switches around the names that he refers to people by - at different times calling someone by their first name, last name, or nickname. So, it's very easy to get confused about who's he's talking about when he's referring to one person by three different names. Style aside, this is a great book. It gives a lot of insight into hip-hop, in terms of where it sprouted from, and some of the behind the scenes pioneers, and does a thorough job of explaining some of the genre's more negative aspects and reputations. In the process, you learn a lot about the economic situation of the people involved, and where some of the other aspects of the hip hop generation sprouted from, such as gangs, graffiti, break-dancing, etc. I wish there was a little bit more in it that was current, but I'm sure that it took a lot of time for him to work on this, so when he wrote it, it probably was still pretty recent. And it could also be his own way of turning up a nose to more recent artists/forms of rap. There was a lot more historical and societal information than I had anticipated, so occasionally I got a little overloaded on facts and had to sort of take breathers from it every once and awhile so that I wouldn't forget everything or get overwhelmed. This is definitely a must for anyone who likes hip-hop or an aspect of the culture, and even those who are the genre's greatest detractors. People who reduce rap to being about violence, money and objectifying women might find themselves surprised a) to see that rap is much, much more than that, and b) to see why and how it got that nasty reputation.
