Hip Hop Evolution (2016)
2016 · 4 seasons · Documentary
Hip-Hop today is a global culture that has changed music, dance, fashion, language —and even politics. But where did this worldwide cultural movement begin? We trace hip-hop back to its humble beginnings, when the kids of the Bronx crammed into house parties, rec rooms, and public parks to hear music like they’d never heard it before.
Created by Darby Wheeler. Starring Grandmaster Flash, Afrika Bambaataa, Ice-T, Ice Cube and Shad.
