Here's part one of an interview that features music and marketing mogul Steve Stoute and Jay-Z talking about hip-hop culture and the wide-reaching effect it has had over the years. Stoute's book The Tanning Of America: How the Culture of Hip-Hop Rewrote the Rules of the New Economy dives deep into this topic. Possibly the most relevant person to speak to about this is industry veteran Jay-Z, who has not only witnessed the impact of hip-hop, but been a huge part of it.
