The session titled You Don’t Stop: Making It in Hip-Hop offered much more valuable information then I expected. I heard from writers such as Bun B, who really gave some insight on the current state of Hip Hop – commenting that Hip Hop isn’t dead but rather the originally is missing. It seemed like more of a discussion then just me listening because of the “realness” and candor of their comments. I enjoyed the panelists' discussion about there being a sort of disconnect between the artist and the audience, and with the fast paced of the business, how there is no time to grow and have new experiences to write about. Also listening to Hip Hop producer Just Blaze, he emphasized how important it is to be yourself and not sound like someone else. Easier said then done when there is so much out there now, but I really felt his message through his passion and experience.
