This national best-seller chronicles the true story of two brothers coming of age in the Henry Horner public housing complex in Chicago. Lafeyette and Pharoah Rivers are 11 and nine years old when the story begins in the summer of 1987. Living with their mother and six siblings, they struggle against grinding poverty, gun violence, gang influences, overzealous police officers, and overburdened and neglectful bureaucracies. Immersed in their lives for two years, Kotlowitz brings us this classic rendering of growing up poor in America’s cities.

But for Raheim, it's a trip that promises to be both phat and frightening. As he struggles with being in love with another man for the first time, he must also come to terms with the murder of his homeboy, Derrick "D.C." Carter, and confront his father, who returns after abandoning him and his mother over sixteen years ago. Add his ever-curious five-year-old son, Junior, to the mix, and it's no wonder Raheim doesn't go mad crazy.

With the gradual shift from the 1970s disco scene, a new style of music known as hip hop paved way for underground music talent; creating local artists to pop up from all over the Brooklyn, The Bronx, Philly, and Jersey. Some refer to it as “The Golden Era” but rap music was just coming into its own in the early to mid-1980s. This audiobook The History of Hip Hop, Volume 2, takes you behind the scenes and gives you the little-known details of the 1980s era which would lay the roots for an artistic experience that has built the existence of many rap artists now.
