THE HAUNTING OF HIP HOP

When you combine African-American history, hip hop, and an engrossing ghost story, the result is a delightful tale. When musical genius Harry "Freedom" Hudson purchases a haunted brownstone in Harlem, he inherits the spirit of an eighteenth-century African captured and transported into slavery. This ghost had been a notable drum-maker, and he has strong opinions about Freedom's own music. JD Jackson's voice envelops the listener, perfectly capturing the African's patois, the musician's groove, and the attitude of contemporary African-American street culture. To paraphrase one of the characters, spend the "chedder" and buy this audiobook! P.R. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC 04/ JAN 05]
