08 Aug Reality Star Blac Chyna Is Apparently Being Groomed To Become A Rapper

Rap music is no longer only a medium for artists to brandish their bars and explore new sounds. It is the central locus of all culture, an ultimate mandala that connects music, media, celebrity, clothing, style and language.

What once started as a vibrant community in the Bronx led by DJ Kool Herc and Africa Bambaataa, designed to get marginalized people to live amongst each other and channel their hopes and dreams into music, dancing and graffiti, rap has become the largest artistic and intellectual enterprise in the entire world.

Any brand seeking to make it today needs hip-hop culture on its side. Black people, and the genius of expressing the black experience in America, along with the latino experience and all the minorities in that creative crucible of New York City in the 70s and 80s, have turned their pain into rough-cut diamonds. One of hip-hop’s most common metaphors, a rose grown from concrete, has become prophecy.

Now, in 2017, rapping is the go-to move for anyone looking to expand their brand. Love & Hip Hop star Cardi B has been grinding for years, and finally broke out onto the Billboard charts this summer with her hit song Bodak Yellow. Now, all signs indicate that Blac Chyna is looking to follow her success.
