Tracing the Hip-Hop Generation's Impact on Brands, Sports, & Pop Culture
By Erin O. Patten
Hip-Hop culture has had a profound impact on marketing in the past two
decades and it provided an intersection for brands, sports, and popular
culture. Erin O. Patton documents this impact in his new book, Under the
Influence—Tracing the Hip-Hop Generation's Impact on Brands, Sports, & Pop
Culture.
Adam Graves, senior vice president of Deutsch Advertising says of Under
the Influence and Patton: "If there are any marketers out there that still
think they can ignore the urban market they'd better think again...This
isn't just a book for so-called urban marketers; this should be mandatory
reading for every marketer in the country.”
