Welcome to ‘the world’s smartest Hip-Hop newsletter!’ I had planned to deliver a couple of newsletters in September, but to be honest, I was a bit … busy. Many of you know that I also produce and host a podcast, “Hip-Hop Can Save America!”, which largely interviews folks who are using Hip-Hop music and culture in innovative ways that are improving society, in areas including education, health & wellness, science & technology, politics and social justice, the fine arts and much more. In September (because I apparently thought pandemic life wasn’t complicated enough) I decided to take that podcast to the next level and broadcast LIVE videostream episodes four days a week for the entire month!! Somehow, I pulled it off. We had a great guest every episode from across various industries and disciplines, all serving as incredible ambassadors for Hip-Hop’s ability to uplift humanity. Below are links to the individual episodes from the course of the live video series. All of these episodes (as well as past, future, and bonus episodes) can be heard by subscribing to the podcast, but the video episodes can also be seen on YouTube and Facebook. I think you’ll find these to be informative and inspiring, and fill you with the kind of optimism that we all could use a little more of these days. We’ll be back to curating and delivering great stories of Hip-Hop innovation from around the web soon. In any event, please consider these ways to show support: All of these little things will go a long way toward advancing our mission to preserve, protect, and promote Hip-Hop’s ability to improve humanity, fight injustice, innovate industries, and save lives. Thank you.
