What is Lynn Hip Hop Wall of Fame?
The city of Lynn has become a hub of art and culture; the wonderful murals and art being displayed around the city undoubtedly adds to the beauty of Lynn, but we also must not ignore that with it comes the gentrification of this community, and with that, the culture that makes this community special is at risk of disappearing. The Lynn Hip Hop Wall of Fame mural serves to preserve the rich hip hop culture in Lynn, and recognize those who have contributed to the culture by honoring their efforts through a community driven voting and induction process.
The Lynn Hip Hop community will induct nine out of 36 nominees across seven categories in the First Annual Lynn Hip Hop Wall of Fame. Through the voting process, the community will discuss artists who represent Lynn Hip Hop, highlighting and celebrating the culture. The initiative aims to promote recognition and support for local artists, as well as document and preserve the Hip Hop culture in Lynn. The mural will serve as a tribute to Hip Hop leaders and inspire the next generation of Lynn artists.
