The Real Hip-Hop Network President/CEO says, “We are combining digital media, entertainment, and television with the four original pillars of Hip-Hop. These “pillars,” represent the different segments of the culture: rap music (oral), turntablism or DJing (aural), b-boying (physical) and graffiti art (visual).” The crucial and more recent pillar, Knowledge, Culture, and Overstanding, will also be represented with programming designed to inform and educate. The all-important 5th element is the saving grace of generations to come and a call home to those who have lost their way.
