There is no way Blown Woofer magazine could let the year go by without creating a special issue to celebrate 50 years of Hip Hop. We tried to name everyone who had a hand in participating in the culture. There were many and if we missed a few, please forgive us. We listed rappers, graffiti artists, breakdancers, battle rappers, journalists, fanzines, DJs, and highlights of the many events that took place over the year. Also included are the next generation of female and male artists that we cannot get enough of which include our cover artists, Famo Banga and Fox Hound.
