A conversation with music critics Nelson George, author of “hip hop america,” and Richard Harrington of the Washington Post about the popular musical form known simply as hip hop. Kojo speaks with George and Harrington about hip hop, not only as a musical style, but also as a business, a language, and–for some– a moral force.
