Hip Hop culture has become all pervasive in American society. From clothing, to cell phones, and oh yeah - the music, Hip Hop culture is arguably the single most influential force on America's youth today. I have been asking for two years when the Hip Hop culture was going to pick up on poker. The fit seems so natural - putting it all on the line, and trying to get the money - truisms at least to an extent in both Hip Hop culture, and the poker world. According to AllHipHop.com, On October 6th, the two worlds will collide with the premier of 'Hip Hop Hold 'Em'. This show has been in development for a while, and in fact, it originally was slated to air in the spring of 2005.
