This sprawling exhibit explores the profound impact and influence that hip-hop music and culture has had on the United States and the world since it burst forth in the Bronx 50 years ago. The Mixtape Exhibit delves deep into the sounds, scenes and history of hip-hop music, dance, graffiti, fashion, business, and activism. On view are rarely displayed artifacts from Tupac Shakur, Notorious B.I.G., MC Lyte, Lil Wayne, Slick Rick, Egyptian Lover, Eminem, and many others, and visitors can make their own hip-hop music with five unique interactives.
The exhibit was curated by a team of four co-curators who bring a deep knowledge of hip-hop, academic rigor and creativity to the project: Felicia Angeja Viator, associate professor of history, San Francisco State University, author of To Live And Defy In LA: How Gangsta Rap Changed America, and one of the first women DJs in the Bay Area hip-hop scene; Adam Bradley, professor of English and founding director of the Laboratory for Race and Popular Culture (the RAP Lab) at UCLA, and co-editor of The Anthology of Rap; Jason King, dean, USC Thornton School of Music and former chair of the Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at NYU; and Dan Charnas, associate arts professor, NYU Clive Davis Institute of Music, and author of Dilla Time: The Life And Afterlife Of The Hip-Hop Producer Who Reinvented Rhythm. The co-curators worked in conjunction with GRAMMY Museum Chief Curator and VP of Curatorial Affairs Jasen Emmons as well as a 20-member Advisory Board.

This place was not what we expected. It was not as interesting as we thought it would be, maybe our expectations were too high. My husband is very interested in music, which is why I decided to go to the Grammy Museum, but this place was a disappointment. The main attraction of this museum was the exhibition of Michael Jackson&#39;s red jacket in the &quot;Thriller&quot; music video. But when we got there, most of the exhibitions were closed.

Too fun, buy a day to send a day, not many people, you can even brush fun projects, next time you will definitely come again, the Harry Potter area is the best fun, exciting, even brush seven times, Universal Studios is very worth a visit, as a loyal Harry Potter powder and Transformers powder, how can you miss it?

My mom, youngest brother Luke &amp; I went here for the first time Summer of 2012 to celebrate my 8th grade graduation. I discovered this park because I grew up going to Six Flags St. Louis with my parents, friends, &amp; Luke as my home park frequently since I was about 8 years old &amp; became more of a thrill seeker first with SFSTL, then Six Flags Great America, and I  used to go on the Six Flags website because I was curious about seeing parks in other states &amp; seeing what kind of rides the other parks had to offer &amp; discovered Six Flags Magic Moutain as I was browsing &amp; thought this park looked like so much fun, which it really was! My mom took my youngest brother Luke to meet the Looney Tunes characters &amp; Hurricane Harbor waterpark since he wasn&#39;t tall enough yet to go on the major thrill rides while I went on lots of amazing rollerocasters with Val, someone who used to babysit for us whenever she was able to. We stayed at a Hilton Garden Inn right across the street from the park, took a picture of X2 which could be seen from our hotel, palm trees in the parking lot, &amp; our elevator had Looney Tunes characters on it which made the Hilton Garden Inn Unique! My dad was also excited for us because Six Flags Magic Mountain is the park featured in his favorite movie, National Lampoon&#39;s Vacation &amp; is only about an hour and 40 minutes from Santa Monica beach! Six Flags Magic Mountain is located in Valencia, California.

Santa Monica State Beach

Beaches and shores

Santa Monica Beach, a gem set in the California sun, caressed the heartstrings of every traveler with its endless charm. It is like a delicate watercolor painting, slowly spread on the vast Pacific Ocean, a mile long golden sand beach, under the sunset glow of warmth and softness. Here, every fine sand seems to carry the story, and every wave of the light is the whisper of nature. Walking along this romantic coastline, you can feel time as if it has slowed down, people forget the hustle and bustle, and indulge in this tranquility and beauty. Santa Monica Beach is not only a breathtaking landscape, but also a vibrant and fun paradise. From the first rays of sunshine in the morning to the low-hanging stars at night, whether it is the passion challenge of surfers or the dream castle that children build on the beach, it constitutes a unique landscape. The historic Santa Monica pier, like a kind old man, quietly waited for the sea. As night fell, the bright lights on the Ferris wheel and the stars reflected, as if leading people into a dreamy fairy tale world. The surrounding area, the wisdom and tranquility of the chess park, the splendor and leisure of the Palisade Park, all add endless cultural heritage and natural charm to this beach. Santa Monica Beach, a place that people yearn for, it uses beauty and romance to weave the most tender memories in the hearts of every visitor.
