From bedrock 'n' cycle to jazz, accepted music beyond the eras has consistently appear beneath analysis from the old guard. Hip-hop and rap are no exception, and the essays and liner addendum of The Smithsonian Album of Hip-Hop and Rap confront their arguable aspects head-on. The music in the accumulating exhibits both the genres' positivity and negativity, Schippers contends, citing the violent, available lyrics as able-bodied as the letters of empowerment and abutment of movements such as Black Lives Matter. “Most of the things in history, and best of the things in our museums, accept these two sides,” he says.
