#TBT brother sister time in the mid 90’s. @aaronreitkopf would take me to serendipity a few times a year. I’d drink frozen hot chocolate with 8 straws at once (as to induce brain freeze with each sip). We’d finish by climbing rocks in Central Park. #familyflashback (at Serendipity 3)

“Hemphill sees the Hip Hop Word Count as a resource for settling arguments. “There’s a lot of disputes in rap—who influenced whom—who came first,” he said. “Everybody is always asking, ‘Who is the goat rapper, the greatest of all time?’ Mostly, it’s settled by who has the loudest voice in the room, but now people will be able to put some metrics to it. Is it the guy with the most complicated lyrics, or the most innovative? The one with the densest words? You could even answer something like ‘Which sneaker is more hip-hop, Nike or Adidas?’ ”

Hemphill entered both terms in the database. “Two hundred and fifty-two entries for Adidas, and Nike has five hundred and fifty-eight,” he said. With the reserve of the social scientist, however, he added, “But you have to take into account that Nike is way easier to rhyme than Adidas.””

- Alec Wilkinson talks to Tahir Hemphill about Hip Hop Word Count, a database of fifty thousand rap songs, beginning in 1979, that traces how words travel through rap music, and how slang evolves: http://nyr.kr/ZGIOib (via newyorker)
