Well look at that, ABC news is actually shinning light on some of the positives in Hip-Hop. In the above clip, ABC features a story on how The RZA is using chess to keep kids out of jail. The Hip Hop Chess Federation is one of many different initiatives that members of the Hip-Hop community have put together in an effort to mentor the youth of this country. Unfortunately, more often than not, that is not the side of the Hip-Hop culture that gets any attention. Shout out to Bobby Digital for continuing to use his influence for the betterment of his community, after all, "Wu-Tang is for the babies."
“Unfortunately, more often than not, that is not the side of the Hip-Hop culture that gets any attention.”
RZA would say that’s cause the 85 are blind I guess… and that’s another side that doesn’t get any attention neither. Would it be good though ? I ain’t sure about that.
Did the the ABC host call him Rizu at the end of the segement?
PEACE,FROM THE BAY,

Actually the Hip Hop Chess Federation was founded and is spearheaded by Adisa Banjoko.
RZA’s been a great contributor but it’s not his thing.
