We are joined this week by authors, historians and galactic level hip-hop heads Jeff Chang and Dave “Davey D” Cook to discuss their new book Can’t Stop Won’t Stop (Young Adult Edition): A Hip-Hop History. Nate, Dave and Demone are all huge fans of the original edition of Can’t Stop Won’t Stop, and consider it to be the best book about hip-hop ever written. Here we chop it up with Jeff and Davey D about the new edition, the state of the culture, and some of the figures covered in the book. We also read some listener tweets about whether or not rap fans have a responsibility to engage with the broader hip-hop culture beyond the music. DBRP is a proud part of the Stony Island Audio podcast network.
