Summary:

Back In The Days documents the emerging hip-hop scence from 1980-1989--before it became today's multi-million-dollar multinational industry. Jamel Shabazz was on the scene, photographing everyday people hangin' in Harlern, kickin' it in Queens, and cold chillin' in Brooklyn. Street styling with an attitude not seen in fashion for another twenty years to come. Shabazz's subjects strike poses that put supermodels to shame. For anyone who wants to know what "'keepin' it real" means, Back In the Days is the book of your dreams.
