Reviews for The Hip-Hop Underground and African American Culture: Beneath the Surface
“The Hip-Hop Underground is an exciting and important read that leaves, as any good text does, readers with many questions and a taste for further review of the pieces of culture that those of us in black communities remember, expunge, and hold forever dear.” (Andreana Clay, Journal of American History, Vol. 103, 2016)
