It's Not Hip-Hop or Hop-Hip it's Hip House!!!

Hey everybody,

This week The Reader has a great article on one of Chicago's underappreciated treasures of the past 20+, years Chicago hip house music. It's a great article written by Miles Raymer. In it Raymer discusses Hip House's inception, it's glory days, it's demise by Hip Hop, and it's current attempt at revival. I highly recommend this reading to all lovers of House Music or any kinds music by following the link below.

In the article Raymer also mentions a documentary titled simply enough "Chicago Hip House Documentary" that has shown up on Youtube which gives us a look back at some of Chicago's biggest stars back in the day such as Fast Eddie and Tyree Cooper along with other producers and DJ's discussing what was then a city wide phenonema. Bust out your overalls and get your high top fades tight and right while you watch this.
