Episode Synopsis

Before #hiphoped was a hashtag Compton raised Dr. Jeffrey O.G. Ogbar @ProfOgbar (Twitter) was teaching Hip-Hop at University of Connecticut. Today we talk about how the crack cocaine explosion mixed with the underground gang culture of South Central Los Angeles and gave the world a whole new way to look at LA street life, business and law enforcement. From Toddy Tee's Batterram to NWA and Above the Law this cannot be missed.
