Readers learn about the careers of Run DMC, LL Cool J, and Luke Campbell, as well as various styles that have evolved over time, including rap rock fusion, rap ballads, dis rap, novelty/humorous rap, dirty booty rap, and gangsta rap.
Additional chapters trace the story of hip hop through the rap stars, producers, and record owners who continue to move the music into uncharted territories, including those who are leveraging their platforms for social and cultural change.
