Klappentext
Visionary rapper of the groundbreaking "The Humpty Dance," producer of Tupac Shakur's iconic "I Get Around," and driving force of legendary hip-hop group Digital Underground, Shock G shares his story in Keep It Beautiful.
This fully illustrated memoir by Gregory "Shock G" Jacobs, as told to Alexis Wolfe Mbassa, captures the eternal vibrance of his style---playful, soulful, colorful, and profound. In Keep It Beautiful , music lovers and 80s and 90s nostalgists will find a rare lens into the early days of hip-hop when it was an underground urban movement flirting with mainstream culture---bringing new takes on club classics and new style to the nightlife and street scenes. Curated by close friend and artist, Alexis Wolfe Mbassa, this stunning, full-color work offers a never-before-seen glimpse into the genesis of Shock G's group, Digital Underground, which launched the music career of rap icon Tupac Shakur.
Keep It Beautiful (one of Shock G's well-known sayings) combines traditional memoir, photographs, lyrics, the artist's own illustrations and storyboards, handwriting, and photography to create an appealing package that is both keepsake book and a deeper look into the mind of an artist.
