Vlad stated that it was the clever marketing of Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, as well as Biggie’s unfortunately premature death, that sealed his status in the hip-hop Hall of Fame. Math Hoffa took issue with this viewpoint, sparking a debate about the role of posthumous adulation in the cementing of an artist’s legacy. They also discussed the important roles that cultural icons such as M.C. Shan, Yo MTV Raps, Ralph McDaniels, and Video Music Box played in shaping the music industry, making it the powerful and influential sector it is today. They concluded that the international platform given to music by MTV irreversibly elevated the status and reach of hip-hop, a genre they are undoubtedly grateful for.
