Hip Hop America (Personally read this)
From Black Power to Hip Hop: Racism, Nationalism, and Feminism (Politics, History, & Social Change)

You'd most likely to find more about your topic in papers rather than books. Better off going to your local library. I have a few from my university's library, but that was about the simillarity of traditional poetry and Hip-Hop.

I've only read a free sample of this book while I wait for a hardcover to arrive from Amazon but I bet it would be through uniting the hip hop community through technology somehow. This book outlines the power in the hip hop community, culturally and economically.

I remember someone saying that if Steve Jobs was alive today and wanted to run for president, it would be an easy win. He would be able to send all iPhones a notification to go out and vote for him. I don't know if Kanye has as big of a platform as that, but who knows.
