Synopsis
Is Gangsta Rap just black noise? Or does it play the same role for urban youth that CNN plays in mainstream America? This provocative set of essays tells us how Gangsta Rap is a creative "report" about an urban crisis, our new American dilemma, and why we need to listen.
· A chronological account of development of rap music going back to the era of slavery
· Drawings and editorial cartoons
· A multicultural bibliography containing sociological, historical, and legal materials
· A glossary of many key terms such as "structural racism" and "governmentalism"

Book Description
Every era of the black experience has produced an art form. The first great migration of blacks to urban centers took place in the early 20th century. It produced the blues. Another movement took place between 1970 and 2000, during which time seven million blacks relocated from the suburbs to the inner city. This last migration produced hip-hop music: an art form to express the shared experience of the black majority that has been left behind.
