Hip Hop On The Hill

Via Monday morning's CongressDaily:
"On Tuesday, House Energy and Commerce Commerce, Trade and Consumer Protection Subcommittee Chairman Bobby Rush, D-Ill., holds a hearing on degrading media stereotypes, particularly in hip-hop songs and music videos. Rap artist Master P is a confirmed witness but at deadline it was unclear whether 50 Cent would testify."
This looks to be a can't-miss hearing for those of you who enjoy collisions of politics and pop-culture. I wonder if the committee considered inviting Flavor Flav to participate. He was in Public Enemy, after all. And the Parents Television Council just might be interested in what he has to say about the issue. -- Michael Martinez
