5. "I Never Knew Hip-Hop Would Take It This Far.."


Heart Of The City (Aint No Love) - Jay-Z



Another reason to visit NYC, originated culture. I'll have to admit and I think I'm knowledgeable enough to say that the best sounds of Hip-Hop were derived in the East Coast. Stop shaking your head in agreeing to disagree because the only ones asking Can I kick it? would be the ones freestyling on a front stoop in Queens with a Mic in their Hand. Even a man raised from Brooklyn who Needs Love would tell you that a lot of rhymes would give you a New Flava in Ya Ear for years to come. Bentleys and Lambos don't have to tell you that. Neither do films on a big screen or even requested videos on BOX. New York City is recognizing Hip-Hop as a culture.

In the Motown of New York is a hamburger joint where you would be able to view Hollis' Hip-Hop Museum where rap artists donated items, like Jam Master Jay's turntable. Pretty cool concept. But...I bet you they only serve fried chicken and watermelon.
