Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before there was hip hop, there was DJ Kool Herc. On a hot day at the end of summer in 1973 Cindy Campbell threw a back-to-school party at a park in the South Bronx. Her brother, Clive Campbell, spun the records. He had a new way of playing the music to make the breaks—the musical interludes between verses—longer for dancing. He called himself DJ Kool Herc and this is When the Beat Was Born. From his childhood in Jamaica to his youth in the Bronx, Laban Carrick Hill's book tells how Kool Herc came to be a DJ, how kids in gangs stopped fighting in order to breakdance, and how the music he invented went on to define a culture and transform the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In It's Bigger Than Hip Hop, M. K. Asante, Jr. looks at the rise of a generation that sees beyond the smoke and mirrors of corporate-manufactured hip hop and is building a movement that will change not only the face of pop culture, but the world. Asante, a young firebrand poet, professor, filmmaker, and activist who represents this movement, uses hip hop as a springboard for a larger discussion about the urgent social and political issues affecting the post-hip-hop generation, a new wave of youth searching for an understanding of itself outside the self-destructive, corporate hip-hop monopoly. Through insightful anecdotes, scholarship, personal encounters, and conversations with youth across the globe as well as icons such as Chuck D and Maya Angelou, Asante illuminates a shift that can be felt in the crowded spoken-word joints in post-Katrina New Orleans, seen in the rise of youth-led organizations committed to social justice, and heard around the world chanting "It's bigger than hip hop."

Book excerpt: *The #1 New Release in Children's Basketball Books on Amazon - December, 2019* ------- 4th grader Sam Spitero is used to hanging out at home after school playing video games and listening to music. But when his mom gets a new job with late hours, he's forced to switch his routine and go to an after-school program at the Boys & Girls Club-which he's not happy about. He likes playing basketball in the gym, but the kids from across town pick on him because he's short. But when Sam joins the club's new Hip-Hop Workshop, he makes friends with kids who share his same interest in music, and starts rapping under his new alias: Spit. The only problem is, he's too nervous to rap in front of anyone! As Spit and his friends prepare for the big Rap Royale talent show, they learn the steps to creating their own basketball-themed hip-hop song and performance from scratch. But after weeks of hard work and rehearsals, will Spit's stage fright hold them back from winning the grand prize? -------- Daniel Isenberg is a creative director at a global sports and entertainment marketing agency and a hip-hop music journalist who has written features for Complex, Pitchfork, XXL, Def Jam Records and more. He is also a Grammy-nominated songwriter for his work on Matisyahu's Youth LP. My Name is Spit: The Dunk Dance is inspired by Isenberg's seven years as the Cultural Arts Director at the Boys & Girls Club of Northern Westchester, and his three basketball and music-loving children. A percentage of the sales from this book will be donated to the Boys & Girls Club of Northern Westchester.
