Hip Hop Family Tree Book 2

In this latest volume, Piskor captures the flavour of early- 80s NYC in panels bursting with obsessively authentic detail. Captured are the vivid personalities of stars like Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Afrika Bambaataa and Public Enemy, as well as a bunch of upstarts from Compton who would later form NWA. Following the runaway success of the original Hip Hop Family Tree, Ed Piskor hits us with another block-rocking instalment. The lore of the early days of hip hop has become the stuff of myth, so what better way to document this fascinating, epic true story than in another great mythological medium - the comic book? From exciting young talent and self-proclaimed hip hop nerd Ed Piskor comes this explosively entertaining, encyclopaedic history of the formative years of the music genre that has changed global culture.
