From the website of publisher Taschen:

Ice Cold: A Hip-Hop Jewelry History presents the bling culture of rappers and their jewelry. Using 40 years of iconic imagery and compelling stories, this visual history shines a light on the world of hip-hop, where mega stars from Run-DMC to Tupac and Jay-Z to Migos and Cardi B flash brilliant custom pieces to show status and personal style.

The book is fully set in Flecha with support from an unidentified sans serif, while the book title on the cover and spine uses the Bold weight of Migra. The sans serif used for body text (and some page navigation) is yet to be identified.

    Pretty sure the unidentified type on the chain is Ramillas

  2. The chain that reads “ICE COLD”? No, that’s Migra Bold. What’s still unidentified is the sans used inside the book alongside Flecha. Here’s a sample:
