It is now 2024, which closes the book on a year-long campaign celebrating 50 years of Hip-Hop. The August 11, 1973 birthday resonated throughout 2023, in the form of Grammy performances, incredible tribute songs (which also earned Grammy recognition), and a litany of concerts—including one at Yankee Stadium—just minutes from where DJ Kool Herc and Cynthia Campbell threw that inaugural party.
However, as the calendars turn over, Rah Digga has one more piece of art worthy of inclusion. The onetime Outsidaz and Flipmode Squad affiliate released “Thank You Hip Hop (Dreaming Of The Past Freestyle).” The veteran New Jersey MC celebrates 50 years of Hip-Hop while rapping to a Kanye West production for Pusha-T’s most recent album.
