Jeremy Beaver: Hip-Hop

Jeremy Beaver is a music producer and DJ with a lifelong appreciation for what he calls the US's "largest cultural export" - hip-hop. After years of collecting, this love led him to starting the National Hip Hop Museum (NHHM) in Washington, DC, and now, after five years of sharing this incredible collection with thousands of tourists and visiting hip-hop legends alike, he's sharing these iconic artifacts from hip-hop history with Lisa: including a one-of-a-kind demo tape from Public Enemy's first album, the 2001 Declaration of Peace signed by Hip Hop legends at the United Nations, the turntables that started it all - DJ Kool Herc's equipment used to invent hip-hop in 1973. Expert appraiser and music historian, JayQuan, appraises Jeremy's collection and attempts to make a trade, presenting an RIAA gold record from Run DMC's debut album in exchange for a rare VOX Percussion King. Also Master Gee from the Sugarhill Gang shares items from his own career.
