Book excerpt: Golden: Diary of A Hip-Hop Kid, Elijah Brumfield aims to document how hip-hop history took shape in New York City. Before graffiti glossed the pages of art magazines, young counter cultural artists where slinging spray cans through alleyways and train yards, bombing New York City with the murals that were the backdrop to the Golden Age of hip-hop during the eighties and the nineties. Before musicians such as Cypress Hill and Wu Tang Clan where making videos, they were the material of revolutionary Dj's pumping new sounds through the club scenes, an underground of talent known only by a few, before being taken up by the masses. Elijah saw a home grown revolution from the streets, as participant and chronicler. From teenage graffiti artist to club DJ to music executive, Elijah Brumfield bore witness to the iconic decades of the eighties and the nineties and its art and music. Thankfully, this inside player was toting along a camera. Golden: Diary of A Hip-Hop Kid, a very personal celebration of the graffiti, clubs, records, flyers, laminates and rappers who shaped both the era.
