Dear Members,

We're pleased to announce the Bloomsbury Popular Music Annual Update 2022 (Part 2) is now live and includes eleven 33 1/3 titles and seven Bloomsbury Music ebooks. View it here: https://bloomsburymusicandsound.com/bloomsbury-popular-music

Discover eleven new 33 1/3 titles, with highlights including:

- Britney Spears's Blackout: In the midst of a public breakdown, Britney Spears recorded Blackout. Returning to the grimy clubs and paparazzi hangouts of LA in the 2000s as well as the blogs and forums of the early internet, this book shows how the album was a crucial hinge between twentieth and twenty-first-century pop.

- Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly: Breaking the global record for streams in a single day, nearly 10 million people around the world tuned in to hear Kendrick Lamar’s sophomore album in the hours after its release. But why did this strangely compelling and masterful record stimulate the emotions and imaginations of listeners.

- Trip-Hop is a guide to 'trip-hop' in its context of the weird 1990s: nostalgia and consumerism; pre-millenium angst and lo-fi technology; casual exoticism amid accelerating globalization and gentrification. This book presents a survey of the music and its leading artists, packed with recommended listening, essential tracks, great remixes, and under-recognized albums.

- Death Metal: Steeped in foreboding mythology, the dark underbelly of heavy metal ignites debate to this day. This book explores the history and methodology of the genre, charting its aims and intentions, its crossovers to the mainstream, successes and failures, and tracks how it developed from the bedrooms of Birmingham and Florida to the near-mainstream, to the murky cult status it enjoys today.

At the same time, we have added a new article to the collection, which is free to view until the end of January: Race and the Reimagining of Hip Hop into Hit Pop. Marcus Thomas traces the history of hip hop and its relationship with race in late twentieth and early twenty-first century America. He asks to what extent hip hop has been appropriated or adopted by white artists, record companies and audiences and considers whether Black artists will innovate away from hip hop.
