    Lupe Fiasco's A.I. Fiasco! | Rapper Faces Backlash for "Endless LUP" A.I. Music Project with MIT

    PLEASE SUPPORT THIS WORK: https://www.patreon.com/mannyfaces Lupe Fiasco, now a rap professor at Johns Hopkins' Peabody Institute, continues his work bringing hip hop into academia, but his "Endless LUP" collaboration with MIT to create AI-generated Lupe Fiasco rap songs has ignited controversy. Critics argue that using AI to produce music, especially from a cultural icon like Lupe, risks further gentrifying hip hop and stripping it of its authentic roots. This excerpt from our full live broadcast dives into the ethics of AI in music, the intersection of technology and culture, and the broader implications for the future of hip hop education. ---- Hip-Hop Can Save America! with Manny Faces is a Manny Faces Media production, in association with The Center for Hip-Hop Advocacy.

    EXCLUSIVE: DatPiff Hip Hop Mixtape Archive DISAPPEARS Overnight! Is It Gone Forever?

    DatPiff.com was the premier online home for Hip Hop mixtapes, hosting upwards of 600,000+ uploaded rap compilations from DJs, superstars, and bedroom artists. In late 2023, however, the site was failing, leaving the future of its enormous musical and cultural collection in doubt. The site made headlines in early 2024, linking up with The Internet Archive, a home for vast amounts of digital properties, in a move that was seen as a way to keep its vast array of musical compilations safe for the future. A few days ago, with no warning or explanation from DatPiff OR The Internet Archive, all 366,420 rap mixtapes being housed on the latter site, disappeared. We spoke exclusively with radio host Richard, aka u/AyoRet on Reddit, who discovered the rap mixtape archive pruning and brought it to the attention of the Hip Hop world. --- Hip-Hop Can Save America! with Manny Faces is a Manny Faces Media production, in association with The Center for Hip-Hop Advocacy.
