On March 30th, 2015, R.A the Rugged Man performed at New York City's SOBs. During this performance, The Library's Tim Einenkel caught up with hip hop historian and legend, Grandmaster Caz (Member of The Cold Crush Brothers). Caz talks about the beauty of the live performance and how hip hop culture has changed due to the commercialization of rap music. Caz tells Tim:
"Hip Hop back then and Hip Hop today is a whole different animal right here. I mean, you're talking about the formative days of the culture when it was done with no agenda...When it was done just for the fun and just for the love of it. And then it became a skill game. And then it became an industry. There's no rules in the industry; it's about a money game and a numbers game. The next generations that got involved with not hip hop but rap music, just did it for the rap music. But they're missing the culture." #MrChuckD #GrandmasterCaz #RAtheRuggedMan #SOBs #HipHopLegends #TheColdCrushBrothers
