Representing: Hip Hop Culture and the Production of Black Cinema

Rating:
Summary: An excellent accessment of Hip-Hop Culture and Black Film.
Review: I highly recommend this book. It is very enjoyable and informative reading that is right on target for insight into the Black Urban Culture, the rise of Hip Hop and it's influence on Black produced American film. It was used as a main text for a Rap and Black Cinema university course successfully. Although very sociology based, it was understood by college students of other majors who appreciated the book's honesty of a much maligned topic.
