Respect Hip Hop Exhibit and the Education of Jahmeel--Adam Turner Photo Essay



























\
Now, I want everybody to know Rashid interviewed me at the Respect Hip Hop Exhibit. I knew he was coming to interview me but I didn't know he was going to exhaust me with questions which he did, but since I've known him since he was a child, I endured his questions, I just wasn't prepared for an exhaustive interview, but what is the duty of the civilized man but to teach the uncivilized, and if he doesn't perform his duty he suffers a severe chastisement by Allah.Did that, done that. I let him exhaust me in his quest for truth. Ache! What better place than the Hip Hop Exhibit for elders to be questioned by their sons and daughters!--Marvin X

"WHEN YOU LISTEN TO TUPAC SHAKUR, E-40, TOO SHORT, MASTER P OR ANY OTHER RAPPERS OUT OF THE BAY AREA OF CALI, THINK OF MARVIN X. HE LAID THE FOUNDATION AND GAVE US THE LANGUAGE TO EXPRESS BLACK MALE URBAN EXPERIENCES IN A LYRICAL WAY!"
