Young, Black, Rich, and Famous: The Rise of the NBA, the Hip Hop Invasion, and the Transformation of American Culture

2008 y.
Publisher: Bison Books
Description: In Young, Black, Rich, and Famous, Todd Boyd chronicles how basketball and hip hop have gone from being reviled by the American mainstream in the 1970s to being embraced and imitated globally today. For young black men, he argues, they represent a new version of the American dream, one embodying the hopes and desires of those excluded from the original version. Shedding light on both perception and reality, Boyd shows that the NBA has been at the forefront of recognizing and incorporating cultural shifts—from the initial image of 1970s basketball players as overpaid black drug addicts, to Michael Jordan’s spectacular rise as a universally admired icon, to the 1990s, when the hip hop aesthetic (for example, Allen Iverson’s cornrows, multiple tattoos, and defiant, in-your-face attitude) appeared on the basketball court. Hip hop lyrics, with their emphasis on “keepin’ it real” and marked by a colossal indifference to mainstream taste, became an equally powerful influence on young black… [detailed...]

Young, Gifted, and Black: The Story of Trojan Records

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionTrojan Records started life in 1967 as an offshoot of Chris Blackwell`s Island Records. By 1969 it had hit its stride, and for the next six years Trojan ruled the reggae roost, with over 30 charted hits. Luminaries like Gregory Isaacs, Inner Circle, and Dennis Brown were introduced by Trojan, and Bob Marley?s first UK album, Soul Rebels, was issued on the label. Trojan also issued the breakthrough Tighten Up compilations. What fans could not know were the cutthroat politics, culturaldivisions, racism, and entrepreneurial pressures that drove the label?s success and ensured its demise. This book tells that story through rare interviews with surviving artists and musicians of the label. Dozens of photographs and a 12-track sampleCD with notes are included. [detailed...]

Young, Sleek, And Full Of Hell: Ten Years of New York`s Alleged Gallery

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: It was a gallery . . . allegedly. In 1992, Ludlow Street in New York`s Lower East Side was just gutter of low-rent tenements with a large demographic of artists, musicians, film-makers, designers, writers, and hoodlums. At the heart of it was Alleged Gallery--the most famous street-style gallery in America. A venue for art and artists always a few steps ahead of the object itself, this peripheral gallery launched--between 1992 and 2002--the international careers of countless emerging artists. From the outset, the gallery was always something of a hypothetical. The disclaimer was inherent in the name: Alleged. With the first sandwich board signs announcing its arrival, there was no mistaking the iconoclastic agenda. This was pure Carney, an exhibition space as conceived for the art world as it might exist in less savory social margins. Between the art, music, words and pictures, sex, drugs, and drinking, it became a democratic, all-inclusive venue for young emerging artists,… [detailed...]

These are the books that show us how to turn back our biological clocks - how to put off 70% of the normal problems of aging (weakness, sore joints, bad balance) and eliminate 50% of serious illness and injury. The key to the program is found in Harry`s Rules: Exercise six days a week. Don`t eat crap. Connect and commit to others. There are seven rules all together, based on the latest findings in cell physiology, evolutionary biology, anthropology, and experimental psychology. Dr.Lodge explains how and why they work - and Chris Crowley, who is living proof of their effectiveness (skiing better today, for example, than he did twenty years ago), gives the just-as-essential motivation. Both men and women… [detailed...]
