Kurtis Blow, the first rapper to sign on to a major record label, and Rocky Bucano, a former DJ and producer at Strong City Records, joins us to discuss the creation of the Universal Hip Hop Museum in the Bronx. Kurtis Blow serves as chairman of the museum's board and Rocky Bucano is the museum's executive director. Set to break ground in December of this year, and scheduled to open in 2023, the museum will celebrate and preserve the history of local and global hip-hop music and culture. The museum will also open a 6,000 square foot pop-up museum at the Bronx Terminal Market this summer.
