Temple of Hiphop
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Temple of Hiphop is an organization founded by KRS-One. Its goal is to maintain and promote the hip hop culture. Temple of Hip Hop maintains that hip hop is a genuine political movement and culture, as it has been accepted by the United Nations as a culture. The Temple of Hip Hop calls on all hip hop fans to celebrate Hip Hop Appreciation Week, occurring in mid-May. It encourages DJs and MCs to teach people about the culture of Hip Hop, to write more socially conscious songs, and radio stations to play more socially conscious hip hop.
Hip Hop Appreciation Week is celebrated on the third week of May each year. November of each year is celebrated as Hip Hop History Month.
