What’s More Important In Hip-Hop: Lyrics, Samples or Impact? | For The Record

Strap in for a special edition of "For The Record" with Genius, as this panel of hip-hop experts drop knowledge (and a few opinions) on the Sprite Living Tracklist. Moderated by media icon Angie Martinez ("Angie Martinez IRL"), aka “The Voice of New York,” the panel includes media powerhouse Speedy Morman (Exec. Producer at Boardroom); renowned podcast and radio host Scottie Beam ("Hi, I'm Uninspired"); DJ, radio host, and cultural curator Nyla Symone ("Certified Vibe"); culture executive Josh Peas; famed journalist Frazier Tharpe (GQ); and Genius VP of Music & Content Rob Markman. The Sprite Living Tracklist is a collection of 50 songs that have influenced hip-hop and pop culture since the genre’s inception. It’s not meant to be a definitive best-of list, but rather a conversation starter that honors legends from across the decades. With that in mind, this panel of hip-hop experts was assembled to dig deep into the Living Tracklist and share their thoughts on the classics contained within.
