Description from the seller

Dive into the roots of urban culture with 'Hip Hop Files: Photographs 1979-1984,' the masterpiece of renowned photographer Martha Cooper. This revised edition from 2013 is the most comprehensive visual document on the emergence of the Hip Hop movement in New York.

Presentation of the work
More than just a collection of photos, this book is a time capsule. Martha Cooper was one of the few to document the birth of what would become a global culture, at a time when no one paid attention to it.
Author: Martha Cooper (with texts by Akim Walta)
Publisher: From Here to Fame Publishing
Format: Hardcover
Vintage film photographs, anecdotes, and testimonies.

The Golden Age of Graffiti: Legendary images of 'Whole Cars' (fully painted subway cars) by icons like Dondi, Seen, and Blade.
The Pioneers: Discover intimate portraits of Rock Steady Crew (B-boying), Grandmaster Flash, and Afrika Bambaataa.

Revised Edition 2013: This version features an optimized layout and superior print quality to do justice to Cooper's film grain.
