9. Afrika Bambaataa appointed as visiting scholar at Cornell University. Starting this November, the hip-hop legend will begin a 3-year stint where he will visit Cornell and meet with students, speak with different classes, and even perform. Cornell has the largest archive of hip-hop history, preserving thousands of recordings, artwork, etc. that can be traced all the way to South Bronx. [Complex] [Afrika Bambaataa via]
