Rubble Kings (Documentary)
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.
