Hip Hop Honors

The best part of last week's VH1 Hip Hop Honors were the reminiscences by people who put together the honoree, Def Jam Records. And it was those rap's that stood out for me in the show. This was Hip Hop before the cartoonish gangsta that now drags the genre down. Some day Russell Simmons and Rick Rubin will get into the Rock Hall for founding Def Jam.
