Havelock Nelson (born May 6, 1964) is an American music journalist and the co-author of the 1992 book Bring the Noise: A Guide to Rap Music and Hip Hop Culture.[1][2] Nelson was Billboard magazine's first rap editor where he singled out KMD's sophomore album Black Bastards contending that its artwork and title were offensive.[3] This eventually led to Elektra records shelving the project.[4] Nelson has written stories and reviews for Entertainment Weekly[5] and Rolling Stone magazine[6] and has been a contributor to the Huffington Post.[7][8]
Nelson has contributed to Vibe's History of Hip Hop[9][10] (Random House), and been quoted in The New York Times,[11] The Washington Post,[12] and People magazine.[13] He has also appeared twice on TV-One's Unsung,[14] and will host the forthcoming In-Depth with Havelock Nelson[15] which is currently in pre-production.
Prince Paul credits him with having coined the term "horrorcore" for the titular genre.[16]
