Original Content Word Up: Joint Projects In Hip-Hop Becoming A Trend <p>A recent trend that has surfaced in hip-hop is to do collaborative projects with another artist.

Arguably two of the greatest, Kanye West & Jay-Z, may have gotten this trend going when they dropped <strong>Watch The Throne</strong>.
