Last November during an interview, Quincy Jones made is opinion know that there should be an official government position representing the Arts and other Entertainment Culture within government. He actually took it to a higher level than what I wrote about a while back asking if there needs to be a “Hip Hop Representative in Government” in retrospect maybe other forms of music and entertainment should be represented as well. Actually the idea isn’t hat far fetched considering other countries have had representatives and Ministers in the Arts for ages, so maybe we’re actually behind. There is a petition online that has actually gained over 120,000 signatures, if you would like to be added sign the petition here.
