The book, Hip Hop is Only for Children is a non-fictional work which shows the author’s personal perspective on the Hip Hop culture, especially as it is portrayed in Nigeria and her music, written from the point of view of a critical insider who has lived his life listening to and appreciating a vast blend of music genres ranging from the fore-bearers of Nigeria’s music industry – Celestine Ukwu, Onyeka Onwenu, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, Sugar Hill Gang, Kris Okotie (yes, the “swagged-out” hair perming clergy), Junior and Pretty, Dizzy K, Oby Onyioha, Christie Essien-Igbokwe to mention a few – to the more recent pioneers like Davido, Wizkid, Flavour, Asa, Nneka, Orliam e.t.c, and even relatively unknown artistes like Kid M.A.R.L.E.Y, Boogie, Aduke, e.t.c – a further testimony of the great attention paid to detail and the author’s true zeal and interest in the Nigerian hip hop/music industry. Hip Hop is Only for Children is an expository book about the modern day Hip-Hop culture, especially in the form it was imported into Nigeria. The book is a critical assessment of the Nigerian music industry from the point of view of a music enthusiast in a monotonous environment. The author, Onyeka Nwelue is a writer, lecturer and music record label entrepreneur who has spent a large chunk of his time in the company of a wide range Nigerian music artistes.
