' Hip hop and hymns: the two would always go hand in hand for me. My life would always straddle both. The sacred and the profane, all living on the same block, all divine in the end.' Mawunyo Gbogbo is a church-going African Australian girl growing up in the sleepy mining town of Muswellbrook, NSW. At home, her parents argue all the time, and sibling rivalry runs deep. At primary school, Black Is Beautiful until a racist bully dares to tell her otherwise. But at high school, she falls in love with two things that will alter the course of her adult life: the seductive thrill of hip hop music and charismatic bad boy Tyce Carrington. Tyce also feels like an alien in Australia, despite his Aboriginality - or because of it. When Mawunyo's offered a chance to further her budding media career in New York City at the Bible of hip hop, The Source magazine, she throws herself headlong into the city's heady buzz and hustle - but even as it lures her in, it threatens to derail her dreams.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mawunyo Gbogbo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1761042068\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781761042065\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin (Au Adult)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Mawunyo Gbogbo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442554024191,"sku":"9781761042065","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7f90190f-e140-4af2-a40a-3e963a53cf81.jpg?v=1777198166","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hip-hop-hymns-mawunyo-gbogbo-9781761042065","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
