MIT is not only known to be one of the most prestigious post-secondary institutions in the world, it is also known to be one of the few schools to give an academic voice to influential artists such as Lil B and Young Guru. Recently having given a lecture at NYU, Atlanta’s own Killer Mike from Run The Jewels will be speaking as part of MIT’s Hip-Hop Speaker Series for a talk titled “Race Relations in the U.S” on Friday, April 25.
