As a constant supporter of hip hop culture, local artists and independent music, True Skool has become a foundation in Bay Area Hip Hop. Founded in 1999 by Ren Salgado, aka Ren the Vinyl Archaeologist, True Skool believes it is important to know where hip-hop comes from and the connection to other genres of music. The website/on-line magazine (www.true-skool.org) is a tribute to the preservation of hip-hop and funk. With local event listings, artist biographies, politics, music, internet radio, a vast social network, and music history, the website is a holistic source of information about the Bay Area hip-hop scene and its influences.
