Langston Hues is generational continuity, taking its name from the great Black Poet Langston Hughes. It pays homage to the Golden Era of hip hop with the V1 allusion to Wu-tang: “Instinct/Dont think/PROTECT YA NECK/ Spines first”, the chorus reference to the classic Miles Davis album “Sketches of Spain” of which many boom-bap beats sampled, and the V3 allusion to the album “Mingus Ah Um” by Charles Mingus.  From the Negro Spiritual, to blues and jazz, hip hop is the culmination of all eras of musical artistry. There’s nothing new under the sun.

Music in itself is behavioral; if you are feeling sadness a particular song that reminds you of a pleasant time can be played and it will cheer you up. In the same breath a song could make you feel sad. This is the wonderful thing about music it taps directly into us and can cause behavioral changes.
