Is Hip-Hop still relevant 50 years later, or merely nostalgic?

In this episode, “Hip Hop at 50”, we're joined by legendary hip-hop pioneer Master Gee (of The Sugarhill Gang), radio legend Steph Lova, world-renowned producer Damu the Fudgemunk, legendary DJ Oso Fresh, scholarly MC/Poet MalPractice, trailblazing artist Pinky Killacorn, and DMV triple threat Chef DJ Johnson as we discuss the 50th Anniversary of Hip Hop and its hallowed legacy in contrast with its current vitality, relevance, progression, and a lack thereof. In other words, is Hip Hop still thriving, or has the best already been experienced?

Beautifully Uncomfortable is a conversation series that brings awareness to trying, engaging, contentious, sometimes enraging complex topics, creating space for progression and understanding in hip-hop.
