Andrew knew exactly where to go, and it might not be where you expect…Andrew Emery is an author and cultural commentator with a deep-rooted passion for hip-hop. He authored The Book of Hip-Hop Cover Art, which explores the artistry and cultural significance behind iconic album covers, and Wiggaz With Attitude: My Life as a Failed White Rapper, a candid, humorous memoir detailing his journey through hip-hop. Emery's unique experiences, including founding the cult rap magazine Fat Lace and his long-term role as an editor for Hip-Hop Connection, were retold in his most recent book Write Lines: Adventures In Rap Journalism.Show notes:Website: https://velocitypress.uk/product/write-lines-bookInstagram: @drewhugeWelcome to Survival Songs, a podcast where each episode our guest tells us about a songs that gets them through the best and worst of times.https://open.spotify.com/artist/286u8X9g8zCa5OODERzaPX?si=GK6SD3uhQt-2ztJ8ycCOOgHelp us a grow a community of survival song listeners by joining us on over on Substack:https://survivalsongs.substack.com/'Can We Pretend'  by Bill Withers  can be found on our community playlist on Spotify along with our listener’s Survival Songs.
