Legends of Rap

Hip hop - the most vigorous cultural phenomenon to emerge in the last three decades - was created by people growing up in housing projects around Harlem and the South Bronx in New York City. The Caribbean-style sound-system battles that took place in city parks, schoolyards, and at block parties in the 1970s were breeding grounds for the rap, break-dance and graffiti styles that now echo through pop culture worldwide. Legends of Rap is a classic trading-card deck with 32 cards that give respect to the groundbreaking figures from the early days of hip hop.
