USA" dissected for Country Music and "Three Blind Mice" examined in Television. "The Big Payback" does for hip-hop. Almost every book on hip-hop has been overly academic. a cash-in or hagiography of the stars. Nobody has touched the nexus of commerce. culture (in particular race) and history in such a suspenseful narrative as "The Big Payback." Primarily. especially for those of us who grew up with hip-hop. this book opens the doors of what lay behind the music without the hype. And. it is more than just "Mo. Money. Mo Problems." In particular. the historical roots of the music on the streets of Harlem add The Bronx. I found it impossible to put down. I only wish that the electronic version might have contained a soundtrack or maybe a video to punctuate the text.13 of 13 people found the following review helpful. Hip-Hops Business BibleBy Zack O. Greenburg"The man who invented American money lived and died in Harlem."Thus begins The Big Payback. a tour-de-force of a book that details the rise of rap music from the burned-out blocks of the South Bronx in the 1970s to the top of the international mainstream music world today. Tracking more than 30 years of hip-hops history. it gives readers a peek at the origins of all the major players in the genre today-and the pioneers on whose shoulders they stand.This sweeping narrative reminds readers that hip-hop has merged with mainstream popular music despite the naysayers who. even today. write it off as a passing fad. One need look no further than the obscure DJs spinning in sweaty South Bronx clubs in the books early chapters to the rap stars starting their own companies by the books end to realize how far hip-hop has come. and where it may yet go.In a year that has seen plenty of hip-hop books. The Big Payback stands out as a must-read for any fan (or even any detractor) of the genre.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great book showcasing the recorded history of the biz of hip hopBy CustomerVery well put together no unbiased book on the history of hip hop from. Business standpoint. There is a saying "follow the money". its true that here there is money to be made. there is motivation. no behind every motive there is someones story. The stories of some of the greats in hip hop re told just by virtue of connecting the dot don the money path. I lost have a bigger respect for the RZA. Chris Lighty. and Darryl Cobbin. Awesome read!
