Brian Coleman Check The Technique V.2

**LIMITED SIGNED COPIES BY BRIAN COLEMAN**

The author of "Rakim Told Me", Brian Coleman returns  with his latest book "Check The Technique V.2"  540+ PAGES, 325 SONGS DISCUSSED & DISSECTED, 80+ INTERVIEWS, AND OVER 350 IMAGES! His most weighty, in-depth book so far, with more never-before-told, behind-the-scenes histories on albums ranging from influential ‘80s masterpieces like DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince’s "He’s The DJ, I’m The Rapper" and 3rd Bass’ The Cactus Album to ‘90s classics like Ice Cube’s AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted, Mos Def’s and Talib Kweli’s Are Black Star and Dr. Octagon’s Dr. Octagonecologyst. 

The book’s approach is one that Coleman calls Invisible Liner Notes – retracing the story of an album step by step, in collaboration with the artists themselves. Each of the book’s 25 chapters includes lively, in-depth, provocative interviews with artists, DJs, producers and industry insiders. All in all 325 hip-hop songs are discussed and dissected by the artists who made them.
