<description><![CDATA[ (Feb 26, 2010) Poetry, music and hip-hop will merge tonight in a performance at St. Lawrence University.  Urban Verbs co-creators Hakim Bellamy, Carlos Contreras and Colin Diles Hazelbaker, artists-in-residence this week, will lead the performance that, as they say, &quot;blurs the lines between music, poetry and the daily grind.&quot;  They joined Todd Moe in the studio to share their passion for hip-hop and a sample of tonight&apos;s performance.

<title>Being White &amp; Hip Hop in Upstate NY</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/13928/20090709/being-white-amp-hip-hop-in-upstate-ny</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Jul 9, 2009) In the North Country today, teenagers are as likely to be listening to hip hop music as country.  If you want to know why, Sean Lewis wants to tell you.  Lewis is performing a one-man “hip-hopera” through Saturday night at the Adirondack Theater Fetsival in Glens Falls.  It’s called “I Will Make You Orphans”.  It’s based largely on Lewis’ life growing up a hip hop fan in the rural, mostly white Mohawk River valley.  Lewis told David Sommerstein the idea for the play came to him while auditioning for roles fresh out of college with a major in theater.

<title>Blessings &amp; Beats: Passover Hip-Hop Style</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/7204/20060413/blessings-amp-beats-passover-hip-hop-style</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Apr 13, 2006) Tonight is the second night of the Jewish holiday, Passover.  Jews around the world will sit down for a ritual dinner called a “seder”.  They’ll retell the biblical story of the Jewish slaves’ exodus from Egypt.  A Montreal-based music producer has recast the Passover seder for the hip-hop generation.  Socalled – alias Josh Dolgin – used rappers, Yiddish and klezmer samples, and funky beats to make “The SoCalled Seder – A Hip Hop Haggadah”.  The CD cover shows a matzah on a record turntable.  The songs include “the 10 Plagues”, all four cups of wine, and L.M.P.G. – Let My People Go.  David Sommerstein spoke with SoCalled about the surprising similarities between Passover and Hip-Hop.
