Hayes, Russell

Russell Hayes was born in Kansas City, Kansas in 1980. He was turned on to rap music by his older brother at a young age. His love for Hip-Hop as a culture began at the University of Kansas where the campus radio station would introduce him to the culture and its values outside of the hedonism that was promoted on most media outlets. After completing his degree in economics, he returned to KU to study philosophy to better grasp the ways of the world. This is his first book. He currently resides in Kansas City and maintains his blog: cogitohayes.blogspot.com.
