Reviews

"More than 250 vintage snaps documenting the evolution of hip hop and the artists who shaped it on both coasts, featuring exclusive behind-the-scenes images of everyone from Biggie to Tupac to N.W.A., all accompanied by Brother Ernie’s personal anecdotes and candid stories behind the images." —Inside Hook

"To capture history, you have to be present for it. Hip Hop at the End of the World: The Photography of Ernie Paniccioli (Rizzoli; $40) is filled with photos only Paniccioli has because, from the mid-1970s forward, only Paniccioli thought to be there — and was permitted in the room. (That’s an underappreciated photographic skill: not getting kicked out.)" —NEW YORK TIMES
