We Are Dying TOO Young In Hip Hop (Episode 8)




The Curtiss King Podcast show

Summary: Rappers and Music Producers, the genre of Hip Hop has always been viewed as a young man or woman's sport. This youthful energy has produced some of the most entertaining and enlightening music and thoughts from some of our brightest young minds. However, in a genre that seems to place most of it's focus on what artists are the most relevant today versus what artists have helped pioneer this culture, the question must be posed: Where is the love for the OGs? Why are their accomplishments not championed by the younger generation until they die?<br>Most importantly, why are the OGs dying so relatively young? Inspired by the recent passing of legendary emcee Craig Mack at the relatively young age of 46, these are the questions I address in the latest episode of the Curtiss King Podcast.
