2024 represents 50 years of one of the most important movements in the history of the world. What started as an artform built from the scratch of a turntable, needled in amongst the struggle of the masses, is now worth billions of dollars – so what does that mean for the authenticity of modern Hip-Hop in amongst one of the greatest global living crisis’ that the modern world has ever seen?
In HIP-HOPULATION, former music video director Nick Donnelly spoke for over 20 hours of uncensored interviews with Hip-Hop artists from every living continent in the world (who have other a billion streams on their music and have collaborated with artists such as Eminem, Wu-Tang Clan, Nas and many more). Within this 301 page book some of the world’s most inspiring Hip-Hop artists reveal their personal struggles, and triumphs, dreaming of a way out of their own tough backgrounds, told through the hopes of one of the world’s greatest ever musical revolutions.
