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.

Amazing to see the rise of one of the greatest art forms from the streets to where it is now.
Very well done. Only thing I would add would be better guests for the “interludes.”
Light/enjoyable hip hop docu series. Very much hip hop 101.
Even if you're not into hip hop, this is a good documentary. A must watch for everybody who likes hip hop/rap
A must for hip-hop heads and those interested in the history of music. An interesting watch.
a good insight into the history of the artform, if you're interested in this music or not it's a good watch to understand the subculture
So good, many interviews and real clips from the past
a good 101 for the genre: Like it or hate it, you will still learn from it.
Hard to rate if you're not interested in the music.
Not a groundbreaking documentary but very interesting for hip hop fans
