Jordan headshotHi, my name is Jordan and I’m a HIP-HOP fanatic! I’ve been a fan for a long time, also a huge sports fan as well. I also am into Hip-Hop Fashion as well, love where it started and it’s very different from back in the 90’s. I’m also big into hat collecting. Love fitteds, also like the different designs that they come out with and all the different colors that put on the hats. I also LOVE going to the Nitty Gritty Poetry Slams they’re so REAL and authentic and so passionate as well. Not many people know this but “rap” stands for “Rhythm And Poetry”, just in case so you didn’t know.

I am most excited to go to more Hip-Hop Concerts this year and learning how to make my own blog. I’m going to write about Poetry Slams and how special they are. My favorite class is going to be Community Involvement and I am very excited to be planning my own events. For my personal blog I will be writing about all different topics involving hip-hop.
