hiphopnomics

Here is a fantastic short news feature on the rise of the economic crisis video - many of which have gone viral. Channel 4 news interviews the producer of the tremendous Keynes v Hayek movies which are now being used in schools and colleges around the world. There are links to all of the You Tube videos featured in this four minute report.

The financial crises in the US and the Euro Zone have inspired a spate of YouTube videos which use hip hop to express sophisticated economic concepts.
