In an interview with Hot 97’s Angie Martinez, Steve Stoute discusses who he thinks are the top 5 hip hop influencers.
The funny thing is, he can’t choose 5.
As what anyone else would think or say, Dr. Dre, Jay-Z, Kanye West are an absolute show-in.
Being hard pushed, he mentioned Pharrell Williams as being an influencer also on a global scale, but only as a niche.
What many people may find surprising is that he doesn’t think 50 Cent has any influence on the hip hop culture. Giving the reasons that [50 Cent] hasn’t had a hit song since “I Get Money”.
Watch the video and let me know what you think. Do you think the music industry veteran and advertising executive, Steve Stoute is right?
