Kanye West’s gospel-inspired album, Jesus Is King, has reached No.1 of the Billboard 200, which is also his ninth time in a row to reach this position. Whether you love or hate Yeezy, you can’t deny that he is amongst a stream of hip-hop and/or rap artists that have dominated both the music industry and pop culture today. BFM producer Ali Johan helps us figure out why hip-hop has overthrown rock as the king of genres.
