Do Remember! The Golden Era of NYC Hip-Hop Mixtapes is the first comprehensive deep-dive oral and visual history of the golden era of hip-hop mixtape culture in New York City.

From street corners to corner offices, mixtapes made a huge impact on the music industry and hip-hop culture in New York City during the late ’80s, ’90s, and early 2000s. Mixtapes helped dictate what rap songs were hot in the clubs, on the radio, and in the streets, and they influenced which artists would get signed to record deals. Mixtapes also showcased which DJs had the most skills and creativity, and who had the juice to pull the illest exclusives.

Do Remember! combines the best elements of oral and pictorial histories to explore the evolution of mixtapes as a crucial component of New York City hip-hop culture. Featuring a comprehensive collection of rare mixtape cover art, never-before-seen images, vintage tracklists, and exclusive interviews with Kid Capri, Brucie B, Mister Cee, Ron G, S&S, Doo Wop, Green Lantern, Lord Finesse, Clark Kent, Bobbito, Cipha Sounds, Havoc of Mobb Deep, the late, great DJ Kay Slay, and many more, including a special foreword by Fab 5 Freddy, Do Remember! captures an era in New York City that went on to inspire future hip-hop generations all over the world.

Entre Nous: Bohemian Chic in the 1960s and 1970s: A Photo Memoir by Mary Russell

Photographs by Mary Russell, Edited by Pierre Passebon



Glamorous fashion editor Mary Russell's personal photographs capture the effervescence of the 1960s and 1970s from within the international fashion and art scenes.

As Paris fashion correspondent for Glamour, Vogue, Women's Wear Daily, and the New York Times, and as photo stylist for Helmut Newton, David Bailey, Lord Snowdon, Francesco Scavullo, and Henry Clarke, Mary Russell both captured the mood and became part of the international clique of elite bohemians who ruled the world of art and fashion. Participating in fashion history as it happened, Russell traveled from couture events to glamorous holidays with the people who invented cool modernity, mining the élan of the period and exploding the boundaries between reportage and fashion.

Published here for the first time and accompanied by Russell's personal memoirs, this collection includes intimate portraits of Andy Warhol's visit to Paris with the Factory, Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé's circle, Jane Birkin, Peter Beard, Gunter Sachs, and others.



About The Author

Mary Russell's career in fashion journalism was launched when Diana Vreeland recommended her for a job at Glamour in New York; she eventually opened the magazine's Parisian office. She worked closely with celebrities from film, fashion, music, and dance. Pierre Passebon owns the Galerie du Passage in Paris.

Geoffroy Monde, Mathieu Burniat (illustrator)

An irreverent, darkly funny, feminist spin on the legend of King Arthur focusing on his runaway daughter, Ysabelle. Perfect for fans of Disenchantment.

King Arthur, Britain’s most legendary hero, is now an old drunkard who spends his days slouched on his throne. He owes his former glory to the magic sword Excalibur, which the wizard Merlin forged for him in order to slay the hordes of demons who came to invade the kingdom of Pendragon. That incredible weapon now collects dust—and suffers from a bad case of boredom.

Meanwhile, Arthur’s daughter, Princess Ysabelle, is wondering how to flee the marriage her father has arranged with the vile Baron Cumber. Desperate for something different and better, Ysabelle and her father’s sword join hands and set off on a quest to change their fates.

But although Ysabelle is brave, she’s never ventured outside before—and the real world is much harsher than life within the palace walls. In order to survive and accomplish her quest, she must rely on Excalibur, as her father did before her. But Excalibur’s intentions may not be as noble as they seem . . .
