ohyeah ohyeah good people. In the series crucial tests on the music, here Rap Battle Thomas Blondeau and Fred Hanak ( Beaver Astrolable Editions). 200 (small) pages on the U.S. hip-hop with real (big) pieces in which interviews are almost round the issue without seeming to. Both authors are journalists and have dragged their pens in many newsrooms French rap - Radikal , Groove , RER, Chronic'art , Calendar. Fred Hanak is also one of two brothers from the noisy group dDamage . A long interview ABCDR .
The title is cliche, predictable coverage and preface expected - is the Doctor of hip-hop that gets stuck: the almost legendary Olivier Cachin. We must attract customers, gentlemen ladies. It lacks a bit, I added you? Go, go for a small lexicon. Certainly. The back cover upon this "book without concession" had promised a "series of portraits of the mill and interviews punch. Luckily better than that - it is far from clichés and didactic knowledge and we feel passionate about. Special mention to the introduction of 45 pages of Black Hollywood to The Word, the Beat and Truands , which sets out the current situation - and a quick look back at the beginning - contradictions included with brio in the form and substance.
Unpretentious completeness follows a selection of long interviews, results of a meeting or several, preceded by an introduction that situates the character. So we discussed with RZA, The Roots, Jay-Z, The Coup, Jay-Dee, Public Enemy, DJ Shadow, Slim Thug, Madlib, Ice Cube and George Clinton. DTS Digital shaolin rap, music, mainstream, communist-prolifico ignored, OK to like, screwed dirty, hidden, and gangsta godfather looted. New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Detroit.
No trace of French rap by cons but a book signed by the same pair is being prepared on the subject. Meanwhile, there is the absurd exercise in style The 100 Essential Albums of rap Cachin, more dispensable but that remains an overview of interesting and nicely shaped. For the birth of hip-hop, lean on Can not Stop Will not Stop by Jeff Chang , which contains at least 200 pages too long and tiring as it reached the 90 but essential for his first game . Conclude by quoting a story in the dirty south, Triksta Nik Cohn.
