CALL FOR CONTRIBUTORS: HIP HOP AROUND THE WORLD

 

University of California PhD candidate George Ciccariello-Maher is looking for contributors to his new collection of essays Hip Hop Around the World: An Encyclopedia. I’m calling for any of you who are writers or academics to contact him to be a part of his book. He’s very open to including many different countries in the book, so if you have expertise in a certain country, he would like to hear from you. The call for submissions is at http://cfp.english.upenn.edu/archive/Collections/3061.html (you can disregard the submission dates. He is still looking for contributors.)

 

 

EBAY SALE

 

I am closing out most of my old school hip hop and dancehall vinyl on eBay in lots. I will still continue to carry global hip hop vinyl and CDs, but this frees up some space and inventory for me. If you are a DJ and vinyl junkie (like me) check out my auctions at http://stores.ebay.com/World-Hip-Hop-Market
