The crew this week discussed some experiences that span from sports to entertainment with good and bad fanfare. Police in Chicago are investigating a shocking attack against "Empire" star Jussie Smollet last night as a hate crime. Two people beat Jussie, poured an unknown chemical on him and wrapped a rope around his neck, while yelling homophobic slurs at the openly gay actor/activist. The men struck Jussie in the face, wrapped a rope around his neck and poured the substance on him, before fleeing the scene. This sort of violence is beginning to get out of hand. On a much more positive note,Hip-Hop’s first pop hit is turning 40 this year and a new exhibit is celebrating the rich history of the revolutionary culture. Hip-Hop Museum Pop-Up Experience, hosted in Washington D.C., offers a journey through Hip-Hop’s origins with rappers Melle Mel, Busy Bee, The Sugarhill Gang, Large Professor, band Trouble Funk and a sold out crowd. The Hip-Hop Museum Pop-Up Experience can be found at 700 Delaware Ave. SW from noon to 6 p.m. daily until Feb. 18. It is also Free. You've GOT to check this one out!!
