In Doo-Wop Acappella: A Story of Street Corners, Echoes, and Three-Part Harmonies, scholar and musician Lawrence Pitilli details this too-little-explored area of 1950’s - early 60’s American culture. As Kenny Vance and the Planotones suggested in their classic song “Looking for an Echo,” every doo-wop acapella group’s mission—the search “for a sound, a place to be in harmony, a place we almost found”—was more than the story of street kids seeking recording glory. It is the tale of urban change, mass migrations, ethnic acculturation, a changing radio and recording industry, and the dynamics of cultural change in the “sounds”—sonic and linguistic—that every generation seeks to make and re-make for itself. In his study of this neglected period, Pitilli uncovers a rich musical tradition practiced largely by amateurs in an almost mythologized urban America. Although most of these practitioners were musically untrained, their lack of formal music education and financial support neither diluted their passion for singing or their quest for possible fame and fortune. In this engagingly written and celebratory work, Pitilli further demonstrates that doo-wop acappella was closely tied to broader issues, including the self-invented individual, gender roles, ethnicity, race, and class.

Making Your Memories with Rock & Roll and Doo-Wop: The Music and Artists of the 1950s and Early 1960s digs back through the catalogue of popular music and brings to life the solo artists, duos, and groups whose music once filled the airwaves and turntables with rock & roll and doo-wop. The Doctor of Doo-Wop, J.C. De Ladurantey, brings his expertise, honed by hosting a weekly radio show, “Making Your Memories,” to his revelation of the backstories of these trendsetting artists.

In the early 1990's Mobstyle rose up from the New York streets to build one of the largest cocaine empires in history. The crew was so well-known that it was immortalized in the major motion picture "Paid in Full." Yet even as they were becoming celebrities, its crew members struck fear in the city. Mobstyle: The True Story of My Brush with Death and the Betrayal of Alpo is a compelling glimpse into the New York drug trade in the 1990's, as described by the man who lived it. It's also an inspiring narrative of redemption. You can't trust anyone when it comes to the drug game. This was one of the things Wip Wop learned on the streets during the height of the New York drug war, and betrayal was the second. He was introduced to the infamous drug dealer Alpo Martinez who was involved in countless murders. When Alpo was indicted on drug and murder charges in the 1990's he struck a deal with the government and agreed to become an informant. This is a story about growing up and running with Harlem's famed hustlers, the betrayal that came with it, and their rise and fall as members of the rap group and drug crew Mobstyle. Wip Wop is a clothing designer who was a part of the rap group Mobstyle. He currently resides on the east coast with his life partner. He is a dedicated father of two, who still makes music in his free time.
