Van Brooklyn Naar Breukelen – USED

From Brooklyn to Breukelen deals with the creation and development of twenty years of hip hop.
The stories in this book are placed within the perspectives of Dutch culture and in particular pop music. While hip hop was initially primarily underground, it has developed into a concept that has now become fully established in our country. The influence of music translates into clothing, footwear, hairstyle and design. A unique document about the most influential music style of the past two decennia.

In neighborhoods such as De Bijlmer, Dutch hip hop emerged in the late 1970s. This beautiful book (23 x 23 cm., Luxury print, executed with many (color) photos, covers of CDs / records and fragments of rap texts) contains just about everything that can be described about the Dutch hip hop scene. What hip hop is, who were important to the movement, how hip hop runs chronologically, the deejay’s, the graffiti, the most famous hip-hoppers and bands. This is done on the basis of smooth-running interviews, (photo) reports, frames and portraits. The book also contains a discography and a CD with ‘hard-to-get tracks’. With discography and register.
