Publisher's Synopsis
The ultimate document of the emerging Hip Hop scene from 1980-1989, before it became the multi-million dollar industry it is today. Back in the day, it involved rappers, DJs and painters, not gangsters and guns. The streets, not corporations, set the standards for style and Shabazz was on the scene, photographing people hangin' in Harlem, kickin' it in Queens and cold chillin' in Brooklyn. From Kangol caps to Gazelle glasses, gold rope chains and door knocker earrings, Back in the Days has it all for readers who know what 'keepin' it real' really means!
