Interview Doctrine: Rap Materialism and Racial Humility
A few bits from a conversation I had with Dan Charnas a couple of weeks ago.Dan also has a book coming out named “The Big Payback’, a history of the hip-hop industry focusing on the business end of things..
Dan Charnas used to work at the Source as well as with Rick Ruben (gave Chino XL his record deal).

Yea there is no post racial era, that dont mean white hiphop ppl gotta have a muzzle on but they just gotta get like Dan and undrstand the history. Maybe Asher feels a little entitled cuz of his connections to the Tall Israelis who runnin this rap sh*t!
