The photography in the book includes one-of-a-kind 20x24 Polaroid portraits captured by Jonathan Mannion, as well as hundreds of powerful images contributed by key eyewitnesses of the culture. The immense collection measures 13x18 inches and weighs in at 15.5 pounds. Featured game changers within the book include Jay-Z, Kanye West, Eminem, Run-DMC, Outkast, Queen Latifah, will.i.am, Sean Combs, 50 Cent, Will Smith, Missy Elliott, Native Tongues, LL Cool J, Public Enemy, 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., and two dozen others. Says Cee-Lo Green of the book, “It’s our take on our own history and what our contribution to the culture has been.”
