CONTACT HIGH – A VISUAL HISTORY OF HIP-HOP

by Vikki Tobak, Penguin, R610

Tobak has created a beautiful anthology of hip-hop culture through the ages. She has taken great thought-provoking moments from the 90s in America where underground was bubbling, through image essays and iconic behind-the-scenes photo shoots. It features Tupac, Notorious B.I.G, Queen Latifah, Will Smith, A Tribe Called Quest, Jay-Z, Nicki Minaj and Eminem. If you are an avid hip-hop lover and fan of the culture, then this book makes a great coffee table investment. –
