The entire Hip-Hop Cultural Odyssey Team awaited the arrival of MC HAMMER to Left Space Studios in San Francisco for his coveted photo session with Hip-Hop's photographer to the superstars, JONATHAN MANNION. He pulled up Hammerstyle in his suped up burnt orange Camaro that looked amazing, with something under the hood that roared more like a monster than an engine and made music all by itself! The car got as much attention as Hammer did from onlookers as he arrived! As the team greeted him, we proceeded inside to begin the photo shoot. It was evident that a superstar had arrived... With his extensive wardrobe selection in tow, Hammer would have made the many stylists that he’s worked with over the years proud of how flawlessly he styled himself from head to toe. Everyone noticed how down-to-earth and unpretentious he was…and they were right! Although we were all there for him, he made even the most avid fan among us feel like he was there for US! The first rapper to ever achieve a diamond album (10 million units). The first rapper to bring dancers and production to his stage shows in Michael Jackson fashion. It’s no wonder Hammer’s been named one of the "Game Changers" in the historical Hip-Hop: A Cultural Odyssey legacy tribute. Say what you will about him or his music, no one can deny his stats including launching his pop rap juggernut around the world! Congratulations HAMMER!... PLEASE don't hurt 'em!
Up next. KURTIS BLOW...
