The Humours of Black Life
The Humours of Black Life exposes the underbelly of African-American culture in much the same way the successful "Preppie Handbook" unmasked WASP life in the '80s. Naturally, having been written on CP (colored people's) time, it has taken a bit longer to bring the colorful insights of The Humours of Black Life to light. Using a mix of humor, sarcasm, and irony, Humours explores the life and times of Black folks in America. From the legacy of their African past, to the culture of slavery, to the philosophical poles of Cool and Conscience, to razor edged Hip Hop, Humours of Black Life chronicles the ways and why-fors of Black life without regrets, apologies, or recriminations in embarrassingly frank detail. Beneath its humor, The Humours of Black Life makes a very positive statement about being Black in America. It is a history lesson for those that don't know the history and a social commentary for those who think they know all there is to know.

Songs in the Key of Black Life
In Songs in the Key of Black Life, acclaimed cultural critic Mark Anthony Neal turns his attention to Rhythm and Blues. He argues that R&B-often dismissed as just a bunch of love songs, yet the second most popular genre in terms of sales-can tell us much about the dynamic joys, apprehensions, tensions, and contradictions of contemporary black life, if we listen closely. With a voice as heartfelt and compelling as the best music, Neal guides us through the work of classic and contemporary artists ranging from Marvin Gaye to Macy Gray. In the first section of the book, Rhythm, he uses the music of Meshell N'degeocello, Patti Labelle, Jill Scott, Alicia Keys, and others as guideposts to the maj...
