Rap Sheets
It's been 30 years since hip-hop was born on the poverty-stricken streets of the South Bronx. So how did it become the economic powerhouse it is today? We take a look at the state of the genre with New York Times music critic Kelefa Sanneh. Also, journalist and author Anthony Bozza visits to discuss Whatever You Say I Am, his recent biography of the controversial and often reviled rapper Eminem. He'll address the question, "Did Eminem change or did america finally figure him out?"
