About this listen
In this special episode of Uncommon Naledge, Dr. Jabari Evans sits down with Dr. AD Carson, award-winning scholar, artist, and professor at the University of Virginia, to unpack the evolving landscape of Hip-Hop scholarship. Fresh off his return from The Future of Hip-Hop Studies symposium at Harvard University, Dr. Evans reflects on key takeaways from the event, exploring the intersections of academia, artistry, and activism in Hip-Hop research.
Together, they discuss the institutionalization of Hip-Hop in higher education, the role of AI and digital platforms in shaping contemporary rap narratives, and the broader implications of Hip-Hop as a cultural force beyond music. Dr. Carson—whose own work seamlessly fuses scholarship with lyricism—offers his insights on the ways Hip-Hop challenges traditional academic norms and what the future holds for Hip-Hop Studies as a legitimate field of inquiry.
Uncommon Naledge is hosted by Dr. Jabari Evans and edited and produced by Phillip Schlies.
