Hip-Hop Appreciation Week
Next week is Hip-Hop Appreciation Week. Check here for events jumping off around the country.
I'll be up in New York doing some Hip-Hop Aesthetics Panels. Check here for the public event in the Bronx.
For my money though, Chicago will be the hotspot next week. Herc, Bam, Theodore, Immortal Technique, not to mention the amazing local people: University of Hip-Hop, Kevin Coval, Cashus D, Casper, the list is just getting started. Peep the events, courtesy UAAM:
