Ele King Books: Hip Hop Definitive 1974-2017 Japanese Guide Book
“A ‘DEFINITIVE’ music guide series launched by the web magazine Ele-King, which focuses on a wide range of music scenes, including domestic and international indie scenes. This is a one-of-a-kind disc guide that covers the main works from the beginning to the latest scene, setting one music genre as the theme for each issue. This is the hip hop music version of the ‘DEFINITIVE’ series supervised by Ele-King Books. From the birth of hip-hop, the constant stream of street music from the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and Long Island, to the rise of Tommy Boy, Def Jam and Cold Chillin to the emergence of the Hip-Hop Nation. From conscious to gangsta. From hardcore to G-funk. This is a book that covers all the major works of the ever-changing and expanding US hip-hop era.” – Ele King Books
