Allissa hosts Chuck D at USC

I had a great time talking to the legendary Chuck D about all things politics and Hip-hop on Nov. 5, 2020, as America anxiously awaited the Presidential election results. There are few artists who possess as sophisticated an understanding of the music business, the entertainment industry, and racial politics in America as Chuck D. Even fewer speakers can command an audience like he does while breaking it down. He shared his powerful experiences, observations, and advice—as the leader and co-founder of the legendary rap group Public Enemy, an author of two critically acclaimed books, a political activist, a publisher, a radio host, and a producer. Chuck riffed on politics, rap and soul music, race, technology, and more. Check out our thought-provoking talk!
