Michael A. Gonzales speaks to Faith Evans on her role in the Bad Boy Records family and marriage to The Notorious BIG.
André LeRoy Davis, the man once dubbed ‘Hip-Hop’s Official Cartoonist’, talks us through some of his favourite work from his time with The Source magazine.
We inspect the nineties output of a teenage Lil Wayne and his group The Hot Boyz.
Exploring the interplay between R&B and hip-hop in the nineties, under the working theory that the increasing inclusion of
R&B-style rhythms and hooks made an impact on the expression of love/sex/relationship in
hip-hop music during the decade.
While NWA disbanded in 1991, their influence over nineties West Coast hip-hop was vast. We look at a variety work and sounds that came on the back of the group's success, from the solo efforts of Eazy-E through to artists like Mack 10 and King Tee.
Jonathan Bogart discusses the oft-dismissed influence of MC Hammer and the flood of pop-rap chart toppers that were released on the back of his success.
