In this episode, Dr. Evans speaks with Maco Faniel, author of Hip-Hop in Houston: The Origin and the Legacy. Together, they explore the rich history of Houston's hip-hop scene and its unique contributions to Southern rap culture. Faniel offers insight into the social and political forces that shaped the Houston sound, the legacy of artists like DJ Screw, and how the city's hip-hop culture has influenced broader cultural movements. Tune in for a deep dive into the intersection of hip-hop, regional identity, and Black entrepreneurship in the South.
