New Children Book – What Is Hip-Hop?

Author Eric Morse and artist Anny Yi reunite for the follow-up to their acclaimed children book What Is Punk?. This time they dig into the most revolutionary pop culture movements of the twentieth century with their new book What Is Hip-Hop?

“In the beginning, there was a beat . . .” Starting with block parties in the Bronx, the children book brings the reader up to the present day, with rhyming verses narrative of Hip-Hop history and engaging 3-D clay illustrations, including an intricately produced remake of A Tribe Called Quest‘s legendary Midnight Marauders cover. It’s a fun, accessible, and informative read for B-boys and B-girls of all ages. A must-read reference for any Hip-Hop family.
