Music Is History by Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson
Music Is History combines Questlove?s deep musical expertise with his curiosity about history, examining America over the past fifty years. ? Focusing on the years 1971 to the present, Questlove finds the hidden connections in the American tapes- try, whether investigating how the blaxploitation era reshaped Black identity or considering the way disco took an assembly-line approach to Black genius. And these critical inquiries are complemented by his own memories as a music fan, and the way his appetite for pop culture taught him about America. ? A history of the last half-century and an intimate conversation with one of music?s most influential and original voices, Music Is History is a singular look at contemporary America.
