It was dope to be in the room. And the most prominent point was made by most of the panel: that this was the wrong discussion. Hip hop cannot degrade a society that has already degraded itself. But the stewards of that culture have certain responsibilities that are often neglected.

well put my friend. That interaction towards the end between KRS and Dream Hampton was over the top. Thanks a bunch for your comment and continued interest.
