Dr. Cornell West will autograph copies of his new Hip-Hop CD "Never Forget: A Journey of Revelations" during an interview session with talk show host Tavis Smiley today (Oct. 3).
The interview/autograph session will take place at J&R Music and Computer World in Manhattan, where Smiley will interview West, who will also answer questions from the audience.
Dr. West's CD is the first release from the Hidden Beach Forum label, a new imprint from Steve McKeever's Hidden Beach Recordings. "Never Forget" features a number of high profile appearances from artists like Prince, Andre 3000, KRS-One, Black Thought of The Roots, Talib, Kweli, Jill Scott and others.
Dr. West is a world renowned professor and supporter of Hip-Hop music. Formerly a professor at Harvard University, West left the Ivy league school after a disagreement with then President, Lawrence Summers, who disapproved of West's 2002 CD "Sketches of My Culture". West is currently a professor of religion at Princeton.
