At ComplexCon 2018, Everyday Struggle host and avid gamer DJ Akademiks moderated a panel that featured the YBN crew (Almighty Jay, Nahmir, and Cordae), the legend Trick Daddy, and 2K associate brand marketing manager Michael Howard talking about the intersection of hip-hop and gaming. They dig into everything from how hip-hop is being incorporated into the games we’re all playing to how artists can make sure they’re pursuing (and getting paid for) the opportunities that video games are opening up.
