An examination of the worldwide hip-hop phenomenon. From the capitalist madness of Tokyo to the violence of Johannesburg, Patrick Neate explores how the potent symbolism of black America has been acquired, used and subsumed by cultures on every continent to create a different form of globalism.

Patrick Neate has written two novels, Musungu Jim and the Great Chief Tuloko and Twelve Bar Blues, which won the Whitbread Novel of the Year Award 2001. He is also a prolific and highly respected music journalist.
"Hip-hop proves to be a sharp lens to peer from, as Neate's illuminating, polemical and passionately thought-out travelogue makes clear...This is a dizzyingly clever, loving case for hip-hop as a catalyst for personal and social change."
