Google Doodles ‘The 44th Anniversary Of The Birth Of Hip-Hop’
August 13, 2017
So dope! I hope it still works…
I was playing with this Hip-Hop Birthday Google Doodle widget thing Friday and was getting it in, thanks to some snazzy app ware and on point tutelage from Hip-Hop icon Fab 5 Freddy. Watch, learn, play, enjoy. I certainly am!
(Shout to the homie Demetria for this epic share!)

Rubble Kings (Documentary)
September 16, 2015
Maaaan. WOW! Shout and respect to Bad Magics for the scoop on this “Rubble Kings” documentary. The story of the cultures, the cultural war… that was ultimately averted because the combatants decided to start a new culture. They stopped the violence and started the party; laying the foundation for Hip-Hop. And it don’t stop!
From 1968 to 1975, gangs ruled New York City. Beyond the idealistic hopes of the civil rights movement lay a unfocused rage. Neither law enforcement nor social agency could end the escalating bloodshed. Peace came only through the most unlikely and courageous of events that would change the world for generations to come by giving birth to Hip-Hop culture. Rubble Kings, the most comprehensive documentation of life during this era of gang rule to date, tells the story of how a few extraordinary, forgotten people did the impossible, and how their actions impacted the world over.
