1990s Hip Hop

The last decade of the millennium was, in many ways, the most diverse and interesting in the history of American culture. Alternative subcultures gained unprecedented exposure, manifest in such phenomenon as grunge music, "gansta" rap, hip-hop fashion, extreme sports, and the art of Robert Mapplethorpe. Twin Peaks, The X-Files and The Phantom Menace brought science fiction to the mainstream; bands such as Nirvana and Soundgarden spread the Seattle rock scene across America; even coffeehouse culture went mainstream with the proliferation of the Starbucks chain. The twelve narrative chapters in this book depict the United States as it approached the 21st century-a culture bursting forth in new, unforeseen ways. The volume also includes chapter bibliographies, a timeline, cost comparison, and suggested list for further reading.

This look at the hard-rocking, funky Red Hot Chili Peppers examines their continued vitality after more than 20 years as a band. Interviews with ex-band members and musicians who have played and toured with them tell a classic rock and roll story of music, drugs, and death and provide insights into the longevity and ongoing relevance of the Chili Peppers. The band is set in the context of the Los Angeles punk rock scene of the 1980s and 1990s from which they emerged, and how they managed to withstand and ride many other trends in American music, including grunge, hip-hop, and nu metal, is investigated. Many previously unpublished photographs of the band from the private collections of friends and associates are included, as is a complete discography.
