Cornell University is set to have their planet rocked this Fall semester after naming Afrika Bambaataa as a visiting professor. According to Rolling Stone, Bambaataa will participate in lectures and community affairs.
Nice Congrats to Afrika Bambaataa.
Wow. Thats good. Hip Hop education is always appreciated. Maybe like three years ago, I had a NYPD detetective come to my agency where I work to talk about adolescent gang violence and he pulled up a photo of Bambaataa and said he was the leader of the “violent street gang, The Zulu Nation”…I bugged out. Shout out to all the pioneers who are teaching and lecturing.
damn, now this is some good NEWS! luv it, man!… HIP HOP on the forefront: Knowledge is POWER
Respect!
Bambaaataa is the Ofiicial SuperDuper OG of this rap shit.

I would love to take that class.Zula nation
