did you cancel your chicago appearance? we are so disappointed! a couple of us english grad students are creating a first year writing syllabus around can't stop, won't stop. it would have been awesome to hear you speak. please come to chicago soon! -cher
yes, sad to say we had to postpone the chicago event but it's also safe to say we will be coming back bigger and better in the fall. thanks so much for the support, cheryl...
Jeff, I liked what you said in your post about aesthetics versus context. I quoted you in my analysis of the MC Rove performance and the debate over hip-hop's "death".

I would really appreciate your feedback if you have time.
Jeff,
Don't expect herbs like Joseph Abrams to understand hip hop. There are just some things that are misunderstood in theory and lost in translation. He probably doesn't know how to dance, either. Rhythmless bastards.
In solidarity,
Krish
