The American Book Award winner, now completely adapted for a young adult audience! From award-winning author Jeff Chang, Can't Stop Won't Stop is the story of hip-hop, a generation-defining movement and the music that transformed American politics and culture forever. Hip hop is one of the most dominant and influential cultures in America, giving new voice to the younger generation. It defines a generation's worldview. Exploring hip hop's beginnings up to the present day, Jeff Chang and Dave "Davey D" Cook provide a provocative look into the new world that the hip hop generation has created. Based on original interviews with DJs, b-boys, rappers, activists, and gang members, with unforgettable portraits of many of hip hop's forebears, founders, mavericks, and present day icons, this book chronicles the epic events, ideas and the music that marked the hip hop generation's rise.

Erst in den frühen 80er-Jahren entdeckte die Musikindustrie Hip Hop für sich und überführte die Underground-Subkultur in den Mainstream. Die Wurzeln des Hip Hop liegen jedoch in der Bronx der 70er-Jahre. Dort entstand ein impulsiver und progressiver Musikstil, der zuerst nur live performt wurde – jenseits von Kommerz und Studios. In Born in the Bronx versammelt Johan Kugelberg eindrucksvolle Bilder des Fotografen Joe Conzo, des 'Mannes, der die Geburt des Hip Hop fotografierte' (New York Times). Darüber hinaus gibt es Original-Flyer-Artworks der Zeit zu bestaunen. Persönliche Beiträge von den Großen der Szene wie Grandmaster Caz, la Sunshine, jdl, Mare 139 und Grandwizzard Theodore sowie ein Vorwort von keinem geringerem als dem Bronx-Aktivisten Afrika Bambaataa, dem Schöpfer der Zulu Nation, geben exklusive und persönliche Einblicke. Eine ausführliche Zeitleiste von Jeff Chang markiert die Eckpunkte einer explosiven, experimentellen und wegweisenden Zeit!
