I'm in a Hip Hop and African American History class at college. Here is the syllabus and spotify playlist of the required songs to listen to.

I posted this in the Daily Discussion thread and there seemed to be some interest so I'm posting again in a separate thread.

Here is a link to the imgur galery of the syllabus. **edited to remove identifying information.

And here is a link to the spotify playlist of ~95% of the songs. Some aren't included cause fuck exclusives, but they are listed on the syllabus as well.

I also can't recommend Jeff Chang's book, "Can't Stop Won't Stop" enough. It's an amazingly thorough and fascinating book on the history of hip hop, and should be a must-read for this sub honestly. If anybody has any questions re: the class, please feel free to ask.
