The Lunchbox: Interview with Stephen Hero

Posted on 2014-04-04 by encaf1 Posted in The Lunchbox

Music is open to all — or at least, that’s how we see it these days. It wasn’t always the case in hiphop, but rappers like Eminem inspired a generation to say “that’s like me, I can do that”, just like the original hiphop itself widened the world of so many young men and women.

There are a lot of great volunteer and non-profit organizations which create opportunities and solve problems within the community.
