Hip Hop News: For First Time, the Kennedy Center Will Host a Hip-Hop Festival in 2014


This shows how much power President Barack Obama has in the White House, but also because he's good friends with Jay-z.  For the first time in history there will be hip hop artists performing at the Kennedy Center.  In 2014, there will be a hip hop Festival.  The event probably would not have ever been scheduled for next year, if we didn't have president who is fan and supports hip hop music industry.
