Another book on independent rap? The first one in English? And rather complete, informative, and efficiently put together, no less?

SYLVAIN BERTOT – Independent Rap (new edition)

Of the four books we have published, "Independent Rap" is the most personal and the most substantial. Originally published in 2014, this work is the culmination of fifteen years spent exploring in minute detail the underground movement that, on the fringes of mainstream hip-hop, made a name for itself in the late 1990s and early 2000s. In 2025, it is reissued in a revised and expanded edition.
