Hip-hop is a great place for not only political feedback but also brand acceptance and cultural diversity as the essence of hip-hop is sampling from other styles and cultures. This list is great – thanks for sharing!

I wholeheartedly agree. I used to be involved in a nonprofit professional hip hop dance company called Culture Shock in LA. They use hip hop dance and culture to educated kids as well. There is also a kids’ version of the group called Future Shock. It’s an international group. Check out the LA group’s site at http://www.shockla.com.
