Lead Between the Rhymes: 50 Years of Hip Hop in Wisconsin

WORT 89.9FM Madison · Lead Between the Rhymes: 50 Years of Hip Hop

Think of vibrant hiphop scenes, and major metropolitan areas like New York City, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Detroit come immediately to mind.  But hiphop’s cultural influence has permeated throughout the U.S., including Wisconsin.  Through the month of February, the Wisconsin Historical Society features the exhibit “Lead Between the Rhymes: Celebrating Over 50 Years of Hip Hop Culture in Wisconsin,” part of a documentary project by Pyramidal Productions.  Curators Menkhu Ara Maat and Greg Doby joined the Monday Buzz on February 23, 2026.
