De Yung Beef a C. Tangana o Rosalía: la historia de la generación musical más excitante de nuestro tiempo. Detrás del contrato entre PXXR GVNG y Sony, de la actuación de Rosalía en los Goya, de la lona de C. Tangana en la Gran Vía de Madrid o de la entrevista de La Zowi en La Resistencia se esconde la historia más fascinante sobre un relevo generacional. Una nueva escena marcada por internet y por la falta de prejuicios en una década de momentos traducidos en rupturas aceleradas. La conversación política, estética y afectiva a través de la música que ha sido la más seguida en tiempo real. Nuevas formas de entender la industria; sobreproducción de música e imágenes, de memes y virales. Una serie de acontecimientos que nos hacen dudar de si lo que hemos vivido es realidad o simulacro. Prólogo de La Zowi. Epílogo de Alizzz. Con las declaraciones de más de 50 entrevistadxs: C. Tangana, Yung Beef, Mala Rodríguez, Bad Gyal, María José Llergo, Steve Lean, El Mini, Cecilio G, Pedro LaDroga, Chirie Vegas, Sonia Cuevas (Zona Bruta), César Lores (Sony), María KeFisherman, Bárbara Farré, Kigo y Ho$oi... y más.

«Si viene policía, hago el Santa Claus» cantaba Lory Money en su primer vídeo de YouTube. Era 2011. Había llegado a España en patera cinco años antes, desde Senegal. Cada mañana plantaba su manta llena de CD y DVD junto al Mercado Central de Valencia. Bromeaba con los clientes, se reía de todo y de todos, también de sí mismo. Y cuando aparecía la autoridad salía corriendo con la mercancía al hombro. Como Santa Claus. Compartía la afición por el rap con su amigo Cris. Fue él quien le animó a reflejar su particular visión del mundo en letras de rap que luego los dos convertían en vídeos. Tenía flow. Más que flow: Lory se cayó de pequeño en una marmita de suaj, lo desprendía por todos los poros. ¡Suuuuuu! El mundo tenía que verlo. Y lo vio: en 2013 llegó Ola ke ase, su gran éxito. Tres millones de visitas en una semana. La locura. Los policías que lo detenían por no tener la documentación en regla acababan pidiéndole que cantara para ellos en comisaría. De ahí a reírse del Pequeño Nicolás, del « relaxing cup of café con leche» y de las Fallas solo había un paso. Había nacido Lory Money. Esta es su historia. Del top manta a monarca. Y no...

In this Pygmalion tale of a novelist turned bond trader, Martha McPhee brings to life the greed and riotous wealth of New York during the heady days of the second gilded age. India Palmer, living the cash-strapped existence of the writer, is visiting wealthy friends in Maine when a yellow biplane swoops down from the clear blue sky to bring a stranger into her life, one who will change everything.The stranger isWin Johns, a swaggering and intellectually bored trader of mortgage- backed securities. Charmed by India’s intelligence, humor, and inquisitive nature—and aware of her near-desperate financial situation—Win poses a proposition: “Give me eighteen months and I’ll make you a world-class bond trader.” Shedding her artist’s life with surprising ease, India embarks on a raucous ride to the top of the income chain, leveraging herself with crumbling real estate, never once looking back . . .Or does she? With a light-handed irony that is by turns as measured as Claire Messud’s and as biting as Tom Wolfe’s, Martha McPhee tells the classic American story of people reinventing themselves, unaware of the price they must pay for their transformation.

For Rick Gaines, a middle-age businessman who finds himself unemployed, the rules he's always obeyed no longer apply. No Easy Money is a story that, in the opinion of one reader, resonates with such comedies as The Office, Modern Family and 30 Rock. Using elements found in such novels as The World According to Garp by John Irving, this novel uses its humorous, wacky and sometimes pathetic characters to illustrate the irony of everyday life both in and outside of the workplace, . Rick Gaines is the Human Resources Director for a retail electronics store. One of the people he hired, Binny Jenkins, is an impulsive computer wizard. He sends a prank email to the wife of one of the company's executives and is dismissed. Rick losses his position as well, due to the politics of the situation. He cannot find another job.
