Jazz Shaped Hip-Hop, but How Did Hip-Hop Change Jazz?
Season 2 Episode 4 | 20m 44s
| Video has closed captioning.
Hip hop’s foundation and evolution owe itself to jazz. And it’s reciprocal. Jazz has borrowed from all facets of hip hop culture and musical contributions, showing that one of the country’s oldest genres is still young at heart. LA Buckner talks to Karriem Riggins about the Dilla formula. Linda Diaz interviews Lakecia Benjamin about the ways hip hop has influenced her as a jazz saxophonist.
