Hip Hop for Sale


1520 Sedgwick Ave. the birthplace of Hip-Hop is set to be sold for an estimated 7.5 million dollars. Kind of crazy to think that the place that began a movement is about to be sold for less than 1/10th of what Jay-Z makes. It must have been crazy to be there in its day. The worst part, the sale of the building is putting the future of the building's 100+ residents in jeopardy. Now the placed that housed Hip-Hop, won't be home to anyone. But I guarantee, the essence will always remain.
