This is why Chuck D is who he is! This was not an interview, this was a Masterclass! Thank you Queen Professor Karen Hunter for bringing this gift to us today!

[@KarenHunterShow]

FACTS!

[@leroymckenziejr.jnfenterpr567]

Chuck D is the definition of what Prince called Musicology and a walkin hip hop art history dictionary!!!! Thank u Professor Karen for this interview!!!!!

[@Nisa1971]

We all contribute parts to the whole. I loved this conversation; so glad brother Chuck came through to the Karen Hunter Show ! ✌🏾

[@mmac9069]

“Owner to what I think & Slave to what I say!” In this interview (just as in his music) Chuck D intertwined music & sociology and made a masterpiece! The brother even noticed how beautiful the interviewer is! A Masterclass indeed!

[@roslynwilliams4917]

I love listening to the brilliant mind of Chuck D!👊🏾✊🏾

[@armonwilliams4735]

Brilliant interview prof! And Chuck D is a master artist, master storyteller and a master teacher in his own right. He was laying the foundation of the history of hip hop while at the same time dropping bread crumbs that lead people to dig deeper into the origins of the culture of hip hip and its impact on society.

[@michaelhatcher5264]

Love the Professor show them what you got. Freedom is the road that's seldom traveled by the multitude

[@raymondjackson4912]

Interview was larger than life. Chuck D was a inspiration for me when I was a young Man and he still is.

[@sharonlaudat3297]

Thank you for this interview, Professors Hunter and Chuck D!!! Such great historians that keep it real✌🏾👏🏾

[@dennistaylor6342]

Sister Karen this was such a good show. Growing up in New York City (Bronx) then moving to Long Island at 16 years old. Chuck brought back good memories. I was in the Bronx in 1973…. But by 1976 we moved to white Long Island. I was at those Adelphi parties back during that time. Parties at CW Post etc. thanks for this show sister.

[@petjeremiah8164]

[@BROTHERARTMUSICArturoJCastro]

Karen, finally got the chance to sit still and check this extraordinary interview. Thank you dear, for staying 💯 ALL the time. I always respect the legendary Chuck D, and you as well. Know that you remain in my prayers for continued success, and know you are loved. Great session! Be blessed abundantly. Peace

[@raineyj560]

The BX! My home boro! People can diss the BX all they want but its just as important as any other borough in NYC. Chuck D is always so humble.

[@kellyprice1895]

Karen Thank you from your man here in Memphis!!!!!!!!! I'm sharing with everyone!!

[@dangerusscurvs4709]

Whoop whoooop!!

[@gracebayclt5511]

Professor Hunter I am grateful for all you do. Chuck D should be teaching somewhere as well if he isn’t, but I believe he may be already. He’s so brilliant with his knowledge of music. Long story short, I saw a Knubian in the wild. During spring break my family was on NCL Bliss from LAX to Vancouver. A man was headed toward me pointing at my “Let’s Be clear shirt” from Knarrative. He was in a Knubian hoody! We both started laughing.

[@blackboards4us298]

Great interview. Chuck D, talking about Minnie Riperton blew me away. He was very informative, and has great knowledge on the music industry.

[@jackigrimes3262]

Don't forget the last poets.

[@elginbutler4124]

This was a brilliant interview. Salute

[@clairekalemkeris4606]

Ten minutes in and it's as I expected an epic interview. Thankyou for the knowledge and quality. Love , blessings and respect. Chuck D !!!!!!

[@brotherkinglee9742]

Excellent interview.✊🏿✊🏿👋🏿👋🏿

[@KarenHunterShow]

thank you.

You are welcome Professor@@KarenHunterShow

[@CantBurnTheSun]

Love this. Goes so well with what dr Daniel Black was saying in Knubia about The Artist on Monday night

[@PANDORACROOME]

Love this interview. Don't forget The Sugar Hill Gang

[@gregoryharris2207]

incredible history and perspective from this artisan...we need him in knubia one time!

[@queenofsheba357]

34:45 did he say Rockford IL?!?!?! That’s my hometown 😘

Never will he ever need a bodyguard, he is protected-

Great segment!!!

[@thefinancialog8346]

Word was bond!

[@lesson6053]

🫡Mr. Chuck

[@ewanbauld607]

He really is a genius. I'm white guy from UK

[@jackalinebailey7347]

Missing Chuck D from Pacifica. The History and the telling of the Dope stufff requires vital parts of the brain functioning. Read some of everything, listen to different styles of music past and present. Tell our stories like the griots we are. Multifaceted stories exploring and explaining the wisdom of our ancestors. With license to 'ill'. Study the mythologies, the philosophies, there are lessons to be learned. Bring light to the world. Check Prometheus.

[@alexmarsh-adams3922]

Proper talk

[@wayneottley9980]

Great history lesson !!!! I would love to know how Hip Hop went from such a positive message to some of the trash today ???

[@DrKB1014]

Amazing…

[@juanita1176]

Were we taught about Black History on a national/international level? We were not. You can't remember something you weren't taught. I used to be surprised by what people don't know. I'm a reader and there is so much I don't know. SMH

[@debraburrough]

Thanks!

[@KarenHunterShow]

Thank you, Debra!

[@kwameaboagye-cl9me]

I love you Mama Karen

[@KarenHunterShow]

thank you.

[@akaziaj]

What's the copyright date of this interview? 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Such a wealth of knowledge. Thx you Professor Hunter for helping our minds expand.

[@alexmarsh-adams3922]

The central park & screenagers section, is a total reflection of London & the Jamaican influence. Ooooh, the history lesson's on point. So I edited because of the Saturday morning cleaning & washing of uniforms for school. Black folk's, we know everything about you, & you still don't know anything about us.

[@christopherharper9818]

Damn that was good! Where's the rest Professor Hunter??? 👀 Lol

[@KarenHunterShow]

on SiriusXM...

[@christopherharper9818]

[@wm8673]

Please don't forget Nipsy Russell. Thanks

[@DaKingisDead]

50 years?? For me it was 1977/78 when I caught on, I was 18 when RunDMC dropped It's Like That...we were 'moddin' around the whole club with the freak glasses on.🃏²³°

[@brucekarriem2681]

No music has done more to destroy black culture than hip hop. Whatever it is

[@KarenHunterShow]

LOL. you are ignorant.

[@gracebayclt5511]

Clearly a visitor here. Keep watching.

[@lemonlimelukey]

more like hip hops appropriation and degeneration in the last 50 years.
