1990년대 후반부터 현재까지 비공식 폴라로이드 초상화를 통한 힙합 역사의 기록이다. Andy Warhol: Red Books가 한 세대의 아티스트를 정의했듯이, Big Shots은 힙합 세계와 음악과 패션의 더 큰 세계를 동시에 담아낸 사진 컬렉션을 제공한다. Kelis and N.E.R.D.의 전 투어 매니저인 Phillip Leeds가 찍은 이 전례 없는 볼륨은 힙합과 패션계의 거물들을 기록하기 위해 이전에 출판되지 않은 작품들을 모은 것이다.

A unique record of hip-hop history from the late 1990s through to the present, captured through informal Polaroid portraiture. Just as Andy Warhol: Red Books defined a generation of artists, Big Shots offers a collection of photos that captures the energy of the world of hip-hop and the greater worlds of music and fashion alike. Started as snaps of friends and visitors, this unprecedented volume shot by Phillip Leeds, former tour manager of Kelis and N.E.R.D., is a compilation of previously unpublished work documenting some of the biggest names in hip-hop and fashion. His collection of Polaroid portraits has effectively grown to capture an important moment in music and fashion. With more than 250 Polaroids of artists and figures including Mos Def, Jay Z, Tyler the Creator, Quest-love, and Rita Ora, Big Shots gives readers a unique and oftentimes impromptu look into an era of music and fashion shared through the ever-nostalgic format of the Polaroid. Phillip Leeds is a photographer and former tour manager of Kelis and N.E.R.D.
