100 Ways to Save Hip-Hop

Tuesday November 23, 2010

Every year, critics get together and hold a premature funeral for hip-hop. Then, people like me are forced to write articles on why hip-hop is grossly misunderstood by mainstream America. Well, guess what? I'm tired of defending hip-hop. So, rather than defend it endlessly, I compiled a list of things you can do to help save hip-hop. These suggestions are applicable to artists, DJs, media, record labels, and fans. Pick the ones that apply to you and behave accordingly. Here are 100 things you can do to save hip-hop.

henry, one of the best pieces you’ve ever done. When I say my thanksgiving prayer tomorrow, I’m going to thank God that there’s at least one hip-hop journalist who knows what he’s talking about.
