Never Thought That Hip Hop Would Take It This Far

The reports of hip hop’s demise have been greatly exaggerated. In the past few months, we’ve read and heard about its supposed decline, yet these articles look past its influence across other genres. It can be found in K-pop, country and mainstream pop. Hip hop has become so ingrained in our culture that now that it’s no longer viewed as “underground,” it feels like it’s fading. In this episode, we’re talking about hip hop’s role and relevance in today’s pop culture landscape.Later in the episode, we talk about our favorite rappers-turned-actors, and we also discuss why Snoop Dogg is one of the most popular artists (of any genre) to ever live.If you're enjoying the content that we're making and you're looking for ways to support our independent podcast, here's a little something that you can do:Check out all things TROY at troypodcast.com.Leave a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Goodpods or Podchaser.
