Public Enemy front man Chuck D, and rap pioneer Kurtis Blow were recent guests on The Breakfast Club where Chuck expressed that Hip-Hop is no longer an effective tool for revolution. "Everybody's got a gadget from your grandmother to the child being born.

Somethin' better come outta that, and we don't know what that is," he explained. "Hip-Hop was covert, but that was [over] before 'Fight The Power', bro. 'Fight The Power' became what it was because of Spike Lee. Who plays a song in a movie 500 times?"

Kurtis Blow is the founder of The Hip-Hop Alliance and Chuck D serves as its President.  "The Hip-Hop Alliance is just that. It's a labor force organization," Kurtis Blow told Rock The Bells. "We are on a mission to secure fair wages, fair royalties, strong health benefits, pensions and retirement benefits.

In addition to the aforementioned benefits, Kurtis says that the organization specializes in intellectual properties, ownership, copyrights, publishing and steaming. "The mission and the point is in the need to find the exploitation of the creators who have been plagued for over 400 years.
