This collection turns the spotlight on six of the most successful and influential acts of the genre, from pioneers such as LL Cool J and the Beastie Boys to today's moguls Russell Simmons and Sean Combs. Each book is written in a lively, spirited manner that evokes the freestyle energy of the music, while touching on the controversies and artistic merits of the music.
