Afro Roots Hop was founded in South Chicago by aKWErius, or KWE (Knowledge Will Empower) in 2007. Fellow emcee Nap Nat (Napi Natural) established The Afromerican Project as an effort to create an elevated platform for artists, fans, neighborhoods and communities. With an emphasis on progressive creativity and nation building within the African Diaspora, these two producer/emcees are bringing a new option to the game. In order to effect change within the industry we must first change how we discipline ourselves and communicate with each other. We are all trapped in a New World, why not make it a Nu World while we're at it?
