by Damion Scott and Kris Ex

Published 1 March 2006
Hip Hop has dominated popular culture for the last decade, bringing a new flavour to all aspects of life, from fashion to advertising and television to language, and, of course, music. With "How to Draw Hip-Hop", this new style of drawing is brought to life by co-authors Damion Scott, a noted comic book and hip-hop artist, and Kris Ex, an internationally recognized music journalist and the biographer for rap star 50 Cent. The book includes drawing basics and construction of the hop-hop look; ways to capture the mannerisms and spirit of the young urban generation; how to draw hip-hop gear, environments, hip-hop characters (MC, DJ), break dancing, and graffiti.
