Aight Analysts, I had a wide ranging conversation with Tariq Nasheed. The cultural historian and documentarian released a fantastic documentary called "Microphone Check: Hip Hop's Hidden History" which covers the true origins of each element of Hip Hop. The film interviews several founders including Grandmaster Caz, DJ Hollywood, Busy Bee, Sha-Rock, Corn Bread, and dives deep into the early days and origins of the culture that captured the world. Spoiler alert: I'm interviewed in the film as well.
This conversation tackles Fat Joe's assertion that Puerto Ricans were 50/50 in Hip Hop's creation story, how Drake vs Kendrick Lamar resonated with Foundational Black Americans, debating President Barack Obamas legacy in regards to FBAs, being considered "divisive," and the hilarious story about how an incarcerated youth named Corn Bread created modern graffiti.
