Once ranked the poorest city in the nation, it now holds the title of America’s most dangerous city, and while officials scramble to rebut the charge of crime on the rise, one of Camden’s best and most underappreciated assets continue to rise up from the rubble.

The music industry, as well as local government should begin to take stock in Camden’s new music underground. Rap artists there are sure to appeal to a nationwide audience hungry for the authentic hip-hop language that conveys a true glimpse of real life in a city facing the challenges of overcoming poverty and crime. Camden may soon join the ranks of St. Louis, Atlanta, and Detroit, as the next fallen city to serve America’s appetite for fresh new hip-hop and R&B.
