Add to My Profile | More Videos ;KRS One: Hip Hop's Leading Light For Immediate Release February 12, 2008 Undoubtedly one of the most respected artists in the music industry, KRS One's 20-year career demonstrates not only longevity, but true and lasting leadership as well. Critical of materialism and immaturity in Hip Hop, KRS One continuously puts his money (and his work) where his mouth is. Iverson Photography Activism Over the last five months, KRS One has met with influential institutions on behalf of the Hip Hop community to discuss the culture's public image and urge content providers to instate positive change. Dynamic meetings have occurred with BET's Senior VP of Music Programming and Talent, Steven Hill as well as Matt Smith of the network's Rap City program. He has also held meetings with representatives from VH1 and MTV. KRS One also participated in a prestigious panel discussion with FCC Chairman Kevin J. Martin and spoke at length with Koch Records President Alan Grunblatt and Jeff Harleston at Geffen Records about the need for the decriminalization of Hip Hop. Stop The Violence Movement Recording Project While music's elite schmoozed and boozed for Los Angeles Grammy Week, KRS One focused his energy on curbing violence in American society. A leader among leaders, KRS One focused his influence to confirm vocal contributions from 50 Cent, Busta Rhymes, Snoop Dogg, Fat Joe, Cassidy, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Lil Mama, Talib Kweli and MC Lyte for a recording project benefiting his newly revitalized Stop the Violence Movement. Building on support from these artists, KRS One locked himself into the Los Angeles Recording School for three days of sessions February 7-9. Nelly, David Banner, The Game, Chamillionaire and 55 other artists joined the legendary artist/activist over the weekend as he produced a historic audio and video recording for the Stop the Violence Movement. KRS One also welcomed cornerstones of the LA underground like 2Mex (Visionaries), Rakaa Iriscience (Dilated Peoples) and Planet Asia, demonstrating a true connection to community through the three days of recording sessions, which also included Raheem DeVaughn. The resulting music project, produced by Duane Darock Ramos, will be distributed through the Stop the Violence Movement to promote peace and non-violent means of conflict resolution.

(For Immediate Release) Wednesday, September 20th 2007 – New York – KRS ONE's latest album project "Hip Hop Lives" (produced by Marley Marl) is a testament to KRS's commitment to the preservation and transference of Hip Hop from one generation to another. Everyone is well aware of what KRS ONE stands for and what he means to the international Hip Hop community, and this could be why Black Entertainment Television (BET) has named KRS ONE the 2007 recipient of its "I am Hip Hop Icon Award" televised from Atlanta Georgia this year. Also the "teacha", KRS ONE is planning the release of his third self-published book entitled "The Gospel of Hiphop"—a teacher's manual and study-guide for students and apprentice of Hip Hop's culture—sometime around January of 2008. Serious "Hiphoppas" can email their request for advance (autographed) copies of the "The Gospel of Hiphop" at gospelofhiphop@AOL.com. "The Gospel of Hiphop approaches Hip Hop spiritually as well as culturally. It outlines a spiritual code of conduct capable of assisting Hiphoppas toward increased health, love, awareness and wealth. We realized long ago that in order to truly preserve Hip Hop we were going to have to preserve the Hip Hop community with an understanding of Hip Hop beyond entertainment" says KRS. Within his on-going campaign to preserve and popularize the spiritual essence of Hip Hop, KRS ONE will be teaching and expressing the principles of "The Gospel of Hiphop" at the 2007 Congressional Black Caucus in Washington D.C., The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame in Cleveland Ohio, the VH-1 "Hip Hop Honors" in New York and the 2007 College Music Journal convention (CMJ) also in New York. Yes, the movement continues!CLICK ON PICTURE TO SEE MORE ABOUT THE ALBUM! |
