The Art of Battle is the first ever manual created specificly with the bboy who enters judged battles in mind within the pages, are the keys to be successful in any situation a competitor might face in a battle. This is a full colleciton of strategies, things to consider, advice for preparation, training, runs, sets, commandos, routines and a study of gestures and burners.
Without battling, bboying itself would not exist. Every aspect of the dance was created for competition, and every move is judged according to its effectiveness as a weapon. Through battle, b-boys and b-girls learn to use humble discipline as a foundation for arrogant creativity. They transform precision and finesse into symbols of raw agression. They attack without mercy, yet still see their opponents as distinct and valuable human beings. Ultimately, battling teaches its disciples how to style to reconcile opposing forces, a skill that may well be at teh heart of Hip-Hop itself. It is certainly the reason why Alien Ness can simultaneously be one of b-boying's most vicious warriors and also one it's most respected diplomats.

Не ожидал я такой подборки увидеть)))
почему же?)
1) Слушатели хип-хопа не так часто читают книги обычно) Есть конечно те, кто уже слушает всякий экспериментальный рэп, джаз-рэп и т.д., но таких меньшинство.
2) До этого честно говоря даже не видел ни одной книги по данному вопросу.
При желании литературу можно найти по любому вопросу, но она не всегда бывает так достойна, как сама тема...
По крайней мере здесь я стараюсь добавлять стоящие произведения
Кстати, есть интересная тема про историю джаза - книга Маршала Стернса тоже показывает корни, в том числе хип-хопа. Думаю любому любителю музыки будет интересно почитать.
