THE LEGENDS OF HIP HOP
By: Bua, Justin
Sweeping in its scope, The Legends of Hip Hop is an intimate look at the
visionaries, the movers and the shakers, and the pioneers who have helped shape
the world of hip hop. Groundbreaking artist Justin Bua profiles and paints fifty
key figures, including everyone from Afrika Bambaataa and Grandmaster Flash to
President Obama and Jay-Z, providing a portrait of each legend in a style
reminiscent of the great masters. The artwork is accompanied by an engaging
autobiographical narrative that contextualizes the impact each icon has had on
Bua's personal life and on the hip-hop culture at large. With a foreword by
Chuck D, this landmark volume is more than a celebration of hip hop; it is the
definitive word on the subject as told by Bua, one of hip hop's leading artists
and a legend in his own right. TitlePeek
