I know that the Hip Hop Culture is spreading around the world. It has gone from the Bronx New York to Europe, China, and just recently I have seen a profile on here from Iran. I see Hip Hop itself a growing influence as a sub culture. Honestly I think it will take a while before it is respected as a form of music. Especially giving the recent reputation America has with the rest of the world. It is sad to say that our politics as a nation has had a negative effect on things like this..

Nike definatly doesnt have a problem being diverse and can be an extreme strong force. Kanye collaborating with their biggest artist definately is a step in the right direction, since he embodies doing whats not the norm. We scare people wtih our street essence in hip hop. Riding some major coatails may help hip hop Cross foreign borders whether it be hip hop or not, music will always be a major part the world– Hip hop still has alot of doors to kick open ,but just like twenty some odd years ago “We wont stop”
