0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Book Title Says it AllBy B. JarvisIf you're both a hip-hop aficionado and a political junkie; this book is for you. Chock full of memorable quotes; stories; song lyrics and historical context; Dr. Richmond chronicles the journey of America's first African-American president -- and the first bona fide hip-hop fan ever to set up shop in the Oval Office. The author painstakingly examines every instance in which hip-hop played a part in Obama's candidacy; presidency and legacy; for better or worse; in the process Dr. Richmond deftly weaves in anecdotes from his own life as a hip-hop fan coming of age in Los Angeles during the height of the Rodney King-inspired riots; to a fish-out-of-water graduate student at a largely white university. Imagine the last eight years through a hip-hop lens; and you have Dr. Richmond's debut. Terrific work!
