It's been three months since Detective Sergeant Aector McAvoy returned home, or to what was left of it after a horrific tragedy.

Ce-i drept, autorii au îndrăznit, iar îndrăzneala le-a fost răsplătită: fie că vorbim despre concertul lui Slick Rick din Roxbury, fie despre vizita la studioul RJam, aceștia au documentat fenomenul din interior, dezbrăcat de orice aparență sau prejudecată. Porniți într-o misiune eminamente imposibilă, autorii reușesc totuși să se apropie de esența rapului.

While visions of pristine, uninhabited nature led to the creation of these parks, they also inspired policies of Indian removal.
