Whether Kool Herc, Africa Bambaataa, Grandmaster Flash or later Rick Rubin, all of these innovators within Hip Hop chose to embrace diversity in sound. Producers, rappers, and DJs, take a lesson from the architects of the genre and from punk’s Bad Brains, broaden your pallet and invent a new way to present your craft. If effective, the best that could happen is that you make music that’s still celebrated decades later. -I. Vasquetelle
