This sprawling exhibit explores the profound impact and influence that hip-hop music and culture has had on the United States and the world since it burst forth in the Bronx 50 years ago. The Mixtape Exhibit delves deep into the sounds, scenes and history of hip-hop music, dance, graffiti, fashion, business, and activism. On view are rarely displayed artifacts from Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G., MC Lyte, Lil Wayne, Slick Rick, Egyptian Lover, Eminem, and many others, and visitors can make their own hip-hop music with five unique interactives.
The exhibit was curated by a team of four co-curators who bring a deep knowledge of hip-hop, academic rigor and creativity to the project: Felicia Angeja Viator, associate professor of history, San Francisco State University, author of To Live And Defy In LA: How Gangsta Rap Changed America, and one of the first women DJs in the Bay Area hip-hop scene; Adam Bradley, professor of English and founding director of the Laboratory for Race and Popular Culture (the RAP Lab) at UCLA, and co-editor of The Anthology of Rap; Jason King, dean, USC Thornton School of Music and former chair of the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at NYU; and Dan Charnas, associate arts professor, NYU Clive Davis Institute of Music, and author of Dilla Time: The Life And Afterlife Of The Hip-Hop Producer Who Reinvented Rhythm. The co-curators worked in conjunction with GRAMMY Museum Chief Curator and VP of Curatorial Affairs Jasen Emmons as well as a 20-member Advisory Board.

This place was not quite the same as we expected. It wasn&rsquo;t as interesting as we expected, maybe our expectations were too high. My husband was interested in music and that was why I decided to go to the Grammys museum, but this place disappointed us. The museum&#39;s most fascinating exhibition is the red jacket in Michael Jackson&#39;s &quot;Trembling&quot; Mv. But by the time we got there, most of the exhibition was over.

I went to Disneyland in California and had so much fun! It has two parks, Disneyland and Adventureland, with a wide variety of projects. The Star Wars Park is very technological, and the exciting roller coaster made my heart beat faster. The parade performance was super exciting, full of fairy tale atmosphere. The staff was also very enthusiastic and the service was very considerate, and the experience was full!

学校🏫

Griffith Observatory: The junction of the Starry Sky and the Earth This art deco building, completed in 1935, is suspended on the Hollywood Hills like a giant astronomical instrument targeting the Los Angeles Basin. Free and open setting makes it the city&#39;s most generous viewing platform. Fu Ke in the main hall is the most philosophical. The brass hammers slowly deflect the trajectory of the star map floor, silently proving the physical facts of the earth&#39;s rotation. When the Tesla coils on the basement floor were performed, artificial lightning burst in the dome, turning the scientific demonstration into a modern witchcraft show. But the true souls are on the night rooftops when city lights spread like magma beneath their feet, and the visible galaxy hangs overhead, forming a barren war between heaven and man. It is recommended to arrive an hour before sunset. First look at the sun on the west terrace as the Hollywood sign is gilded, then line up in the dusk to touch the astronomical telescope. The couples in line, the photographers on tripods and the children counting stars cast overlapping silhouettes on the metal shell of the telescopeperhaps more worth observing than the celestial body itself. Don&#39;t forget to look back at the Greek theater-style dome when you leave, and the bronze statue of Einstein is smiling in the shadow of the porch, as if you already know all about human obsession with the universe.

The Natural History Museum of Los Angeles is magnificent in scale and its architectural design is convenient for visiting. There are many exhibition halls in the museum, and the contents of the exhibition halls are different.
[Fun] It is very interesting, and the history of the development and evolution of dinosaurs is displayed here.
[Cost-effectiveness] Very high. Such a huge exhibition hall has a very good cost-effectiveness.
