The Beat Goes On: Questlove’s 50-Year Hip Hop Deep Dive

Can you really fit a 50-year cultural revolution into a single book? This week on Loud Lit, Matt explores Hip Hop Is History by the legendary Questlove (of The Roots).

This isn't your average Wikipedia-style timeline. Questlove and co-author Ben Greenman break down the genre’s evolution into fascinating five-year cycles, tracing how hip hop shifted from the block parties of the late '70s to the global powerhouse it is today.
