Hip-Hop City - Where Every Beat Tells A Story - Hardcover

by Kim Goodlook Seabrook (Author)

Take a vibrant trip through the boroughs of rhythm with Hip Hop City, a children's rhyme book that introduces young readers to the five core elements of hip hop: MCing, DJing, breakdancing, graffiti art, and beatboxing - plus a shout-out to hip-hop fashion!

Created by Bronx-born poet and educator Kim GoodLook Seabrook, this colorful and nostalgic journey captures the energy, style, and soul of hip hop's early days - from boom boxes and breakdance crews to street art and block parties. With playful rhymes and dynamic illustrations, Hip Hop City is both a love letter to the past and a bridge to the future.

Ideal for classrooms, family reading, and budding young creatives, the book shows how hip hop began as more than just music - it was (and still is) a movement of expression, identity, and unity.

Featuring original hand-drawn artwork by Frank Hart and the author, Hip Hop City celebrates the culture through an authentic lens while keeping it fun, bold, and educational.

Whether you're introducing a new generation to the culture or reminiscing on your own childhood, Hip Hop City invites everyone to join the block party, where every beat tells a story.
