Artists Lend Their Expertise in the Classroom
By J9 of J9's MusicLife
More and more artists are being asked to step in the role as teacher and educate students about their first hand experience in the music industry. According to a census conducted by the Hip Hop Archive, in respect to the hip-hop genre, more than 85 courses were being taught in American universities during the 2005-2006 academic year. Here are a couple of artists who hold the additional title of Professor.
