Try to uncover the truth before forming misconceptions about people based on prejudice, ignorance, or cliches. What constitutes Hip Hop Culture? Hiphop is a refined way of living. It's a global civilization. What influences its language, cuisine, and entrepreneurial drive? How did Hip Hop originate, and who were its earliest trailblazers? Why does it face prejudice? Is playing loud rap music or creating diss tracks enough to be considered a Hiphoppa? Does rapping imply a degenerate? Who is a skilled lyricist? What does cultural graffiti represent? Who is considered a DeeJay? Do fans, Emcees, and adherents of Hip Hop always have to conform to criminal, exploitative, and rebellious archetypes? Those who listen to rap are devoted to hip hop; above all, TRUE Hip Hop enthusiasts embrace it as life! Prejudices against those who embody Hip Hop's Cultural mindset reveal a narrow-mindedness on their part. But what are the harmful aspects of this global community? Do they include misogyny, homophobia, materialism, and chaos? How does the origin of all things black tie into Hip Hop's cultural heritage? Is it accurate to say that individuals who turn to a life of crime are a product of social and economic marginalization stemming from poverty caused by racism and discrimination? Can Hip Hop be a form of political and social activism? In a multi-billion-dollar global music, fashion, and commerce industry, the lifestyle associated with this Culture, rooted in the inner cities and suburbs of New York, Los Angeles, London, and Paris, has spread worldwide. How can rap lyrics accurately depict their communities' living circumstances without promoting death and destruction? The author explores this philosophical work of art by possessing a precise understanding and consciousness of these realities.

This is the musical journey of Grammy-nominated artist and author Freddy Will, a Sierra Leonean-American author in Europe. The story begins with his birth in Freetown, Sierra Leone, and his upbringing in Monrovia and Kakata, Liberia, where his interest in the performing arts peaked at a tender age. This semi-autobiography describes critical moments in his life, the circumstances that occurred after the teenager's family separated from him at the beginning of the civil war in Liberia. It tells how Hip Hop changed his fortune. He excitedly clung to the dream of one day reuniting with his family in the United States and pursuing a career in the performing arts. Only his emergent talent in music, theatre, and literary writing did not sit well with his family, who almost succeeded in ending his artistic pursuits. It's an Afropolitan tale about a displaced youth who flees two genocides through numerous events that almost led to his untimely demise. The betrayals he grieved inspired many of the lyrics on this book's accompanying studio album. As a teenager, Freddy Will was among the first West Africans to adopt Hiphop. He moved from country to country, living with relatives in Sierra Leone, Gambia, and Senegal, bringing his unwavering dedication to the culture and craft with the aim of becoming a Hip Hop recording artist and author. At the same time, he was waiting for the US Immigration and Naturalization Service to approve his application. Fortunately, at the height of his distress, he emigrated to New Jersey in the United States, after he received a clean slate. However, he's tormented by bittersweet memories of his extraordinary survival. In the US, the enthusiastic Hip Hop pioneer became distracted. He entered a period of speculative quests exploring theatre studies, American films, chemistry, and accounting. His aptitudes unheeded for nearly a decade, a chance encounter revitalizes his musical passion. After naturalizing in the US, he traveled to Toronto, Canada, to record his long-awaited debut album. There, he became a Hip Hop recording artist and a published author. This book includes his first crossover album, "While I'm Still Young - The Talking Drums 1.2v," which contains many songs he wrote and performed in West Africa. Follow the lyrics in this book as you enjoy these dynamic tunes. There is a QR code that gives exclusive access to the entire studio album. Today, Freddy Will has inspired numerous recording artists with his crossover style that blends Jazz, R&B, Soul, Rock, Afrobeat, Calypso, and Zouk rhythms with Hip Hop cadences. He writes and publishes his books in Berlin, Germany.
