In our interview with @apollotheater's Kamilah Forbes, she spoke with us about the influence of hip hop on her life and career. Check it out here: bit.ly/3DMNn4M #HipHop50
Hip hop was the voice of my generation. The voice, the culture, the texture, the thread of my generation growing up. To me, it represents the voice of youth, the voice of dissent. It represents the voice of Black cultural dissent. And outspokenness. And protest. -- Kamilah Forbes
