From 2pac to Kendrick Lamar: How Hype Men Became Superstars

How The Hype Man Role Paved The Way For Success - No matter what field you’re in, everyone can’t be a superstar. Some are born to grab headlines, others are the auxiliary players. Whether it’s in the arena of a team sport, cinema or a scientific excursion, that person can only court the spotlight if there’s a host of second-stringers propping them up.

In hip-hop, this has been a universal truth since the formative years. Away from the producers, A&R’s and backroom staff of the music industry, there’s a presentational role that’s enhanced both songs and live performances.
