In this new edition, updated by a substantial chapter on the current scene, authors Kip Lornell and Charles C. Stephenson, Jr., place go-go within black popular music made since the middle 1970s--a period during which hip-hop has predominated. This styling reflects the District's African American heritage. Its super-charged drumming and vocal combinations of hip-hop, funk, and soul evolved and still thrive on the streets of Washington, D.C., and in neighboring Prince George's County, making it American made music series.Go-go (Music)Washington (D.C.)History and criticismAfrican AmericansWashington (D.C.)Social life and customs20th centuryAfrican AmericansWashington (D.C.)Social life and customs21st centuryGo-go (Music)History and criticism.African AmericansSocial life and customsAfrican AmericansSocial life and customs781.64089/960730753Lornell Kip1953-1640514Stephenson Charles C1640515MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816516803321The beat3984099UNINA
