Culture Hip Hop à New York Watch this 45-minute French film on New York hip hop, featuring Wu Tang Clan, Lord Jamar, Red Foxx, Chuck D and more.
This re-discovered, 1990s gem of a short film follows hip hop pioneers such as Wu Tang Clan, Lord Jamar (Brand Nubian), Red Fox, Greg Tate, Vicious Chuck D (Public Enemy), Guru, Supernatural, and Afrika Bambaataa around New York City in an exciting time for the genre.
With a fantastic soundtrack – featuring Tricky’s Black Steel and more free-styling and jamming than you could shake a stick at – there’s scarcely a quiet moment in this dynamic documentary. Re-building the culture of the time in sound, image and personal insight, it makes for compelling viewing on a dreary evening.
