"The New H.N.I.C., like hip hop itself, attempts to keep it real, and challenges conventional wisdom on a range of issues, from debates over use of the "n world," the comedy of Chris Rock, and the "get money" ethos of hip hop moguls like Sean "P. Diddy" Combs and Russell Simmons, to hip hop's impace on a diverse array of figures from Bill Clinton and Eminem to Jennifer Lopez.".
"Maintaining that Martin Luther King Jr's "I Have a Dream" speech is less important today than understanding DMX's It's Dark and Hell is Hot, Boyd argues that Civil Rights as a cultural force is dead, confined to a series of media images frozen in another time. Hip hop, on the other hand, represents the vanguard, and the best way to grasp both our present and future."--BOOK JACKET.
