Hip Hop, Sampling and the Death of New Music


This from a knowledgable colleague:

Hey Ray and Jim,

Since I know you guys are not exactly fans of hip hop, I thought you might enjoy what the great New Orleans trumpeter Nicholas Payton thinks of the genre and what it's done to black (and all) culture. See the link above!

Payton's blog came up at Joe's Pub, where I just heard a sublime Allen Toussaint concert today. The producer of Lincoln Center's outdoor program told me about it.
