Distrakt has been busy working hard on his new album, the follow-up to the well-received 2006 album, Distraktions. But he's also put in work on a CD-ROM teaching hip-hop heads the history of hip-hop. Why would he put in so much time on a project that he basically gives away for free at his shows? Because he loves hip-hop that much. Check out the demo of the CD-ROM after the jump.
