[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 46941, member: 83"] Hip Hop has once again made its way[URL='https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/levar-burton-explains-why-he-would-make-the-perfect-jeopardy-host-news.130031.html'] to the [I]Jeopardy[/I] stage[/URL], and a contestant has found herself on the receiving end of jibes for not knowing the correct answer. [I]Jeopardy[/I] has always allotted space for Hip Hop facts and more often than not, contestants get the answers correct. The long-standing trivia-centered series has been a staple in homes of all backgrounds, but seeing Hip Hop highlighted is a treat for the culture. On a recent episode, a category of "Chuck D" was featured, and it hosted questions about notable figures including Charles Dickens, Charles Darwin, and of course, Public Enemy icon Chuck D.
