Do Remember! The Golden Era of NYC Hip-Hop Mixtapes is a book I wrote and curated with my partner Evan Auerbach that will be released in October ‘23 via Rizzoli. The book is an oral and visual history of the mixtape scene in New York City, spanning the late ‘80s to early 2000s, featuring interviews with the most popular and influential DJs, artists, producers, store owners, label executives, and industry tastemakers of the time.
Hypebeast recently spoke with Evan and I about the book, read the exclusive feature HERE. And I’m happy to announce that along with the announcement of the pre-order of our book, it went #1 on the Amazon - Rap Books New Releases list, and #3 overall on the Amazon - Rap Books Best Sellers list! See the Amazon link HERE.
Oh, and did I mention Evan and I will be teaching a grad school course at NYU themed around the marketing of Do Remember! and the other Rizzoli hip-hop releases for the 50th anniversary of hip-hop and the holiday season? Yes, that’s happening this Fall as well. Course listing HERE.
