Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A Tribe Called Quest Beastie Boys De La Soul Eric B. & Rakim The Fugees KRS-One Pete Rock & CL Smooth Public Enemy The Roots Run-DMC Wu-Tang Clan and twenty-five more hip-hop immortalsIt's a sad fact: hip-hop album liners have always been reduced to a list of producer and sample credits, a publicity photo or two, and some hastily composed shout-outs. That's a damn shame, because few outside the game know about the true creative forces behind influential masterpieces like PE's It Takes a Nation of Millions. . ., De La's 3 Feet High and Rising, and Wu-Tang's Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers).

The format: One chapter, one artist, one album, blow-by-blow and track-by-track, delivered straight from the original sources.

Studio craft and street smarts, sonic inspiration and skate ramps, triumph, tragedy, and take-out foodall played their part in creating these essential albums of the hip-hop canon.Insightful, raucous, and addictive, Check the Technique transports you back to hip-hop's golden age with the greatest artists of the '80s and '90s.

Jeff Chang, author of Can't Stop Won't Stop "All producers and hip-hop fans must read this book. It really shows how these albums were made and touches the music fiend in everyone." DJ Evil Dee of Black Moon and Da Beatminerz "A rarity in mainstream publishing: a truly essential rap history." Ronin Ro, author of Have Gun Will Travel.…
