Swift Chancellor Report Podcast with James Top interview.

03/29/17 Episode JAMES TOPS

The SCR returns as Wes discusses the ATCQ snub that sent Q-Tip on an epic IG rant. Hip-Hop's dominance at this year's Grammys, Rapsody, Kendrick and Hov's big year and why Tip should be mad at Epic and not the Grammys and NARAS. We also get into the slander from Post Malone and his criticisms of Hip-Hop.  Recorded on November 29, 2017.

The SCR - The ATCQ Grammy Snub, Post Malone slander

The SCR challenges the idea that mainstream and 1% Hip-Hop aligns with the Democrat/Progressive agenda.  Wes argues than Hip-Hop today is more Republican or Libertarian.  We question how many in the Hip-Hop community voted for Trump on the low. On guns, taxes, immigration, and LGBTQ rights Hip-Hop is very Trumpian. Take away the Central Park Five (who Hip-Hop seemingly forgave him for), Bannon, Sessions and Charlottesville and there would be a different perception of Trump in the community. We are in a battle for Hip-Hop's soul. Our origins are Socialist but we have strayed from those days.
