Ignore your parents' advice and those who say we need more engineers and architects, not rappers. I disagree. We need more artists to protect our culture and the future of music. Hip Hop is technology. It didn’t come from Harvard; it came from the inner-city ghettos of America.
In 2024, the global hip-hop industry is booming, valued at $26.2 billion with an annual growth rate of about 10%. In the U.S., hip-hop accounts for nearly 30% of all global music streams and generates significant revenue, contributing around $10 billion from merchandise sales, concerts, and music sales in 2019. This genre, making up 21.7% of all U.S. music consumption, highlights its massive cultural and economic impact, solidifying its position as a major force in the music industry. #HipHop
