Here, finally, are some excerpts from my interview with Jeff Chang, also featuring Hashim of hiphop.blogs.com. In the first few minutes of part one you'll also hear an excerpt of Jeff's "Can't Stop Won't Stop" mix cd:
Part One - 6mb: The politics of abandonment, containment and assimilation; Letting artists be artists and leaders be leaders.
Part Two - 4mb: Hashim and Jeff on the importance of the 1971 gang peace treaty.
Part Three - 5mb: How hip-hop died and was reborn in 1979.
