Hip Hop Artists On Vegetarianism & Veganism: KRS-One, The Roots, Sage Francis, Chuck D, K-OS + more!
I had such an amazing response to the Punks On Vegetarianism & Veganism feature I posted last week! Thank you to everyone that took the time to read it, comment on it, sent me an email about it and that shared it. It has become one of the most widely read pieces on ConverstionsWithBianca.com. People from all across the globe sent me beautiful messages saying that after watching the videos of everyone’s experience and reasons for being vegetarian or vegan and reading my experience, that it inspired them to give it a go in their own life!
As readers of my blog know, I also have a huge love of hip hop, so I decided to collect videos of hip hop artists talking on vegetarianism and veganism. Also, check out Vegan Hip Hop Movement, a great source for info.

Thanks for stopping by and leaving some love Matthew, glad you enjoyed the feature. I’m interested to see if Jay-Z sticks with veganism after the vegan challenge he has set himself that ends on Christmas day. I’m wondering if he will inspire others to go vegan? Interesting.

Hey,
My name is Evan Prescott and I am a Hip-hop artist out of St. Petersburg, FL. I would definitely love to connect with people who are Vegans. I saw all these videos and thought I might give it a try.
