Man this was refreshing. Netflix out here winning. Nas is out here preserving the Artform. He's always paid homage in his music, not just with one off songs, but throughout his albums he's done shit to show love for the culture that paved the way for him.

The dj/battle rap scene was classic

the soundtrack knocks too, i never quite understood the hate for Disco music.

Disco was cool but i prefered when they kept it closer to its soul roots. It was wack when it got commercialized. As this movie showed, breakbeats and early rap was created from disco tracks and funk. It there was a campaign to destroy disco but it survived and naturally evolved into house. One of my favorite house tracks was from the rap group, the Jungle Brothers.


Shit like this was on point.
 
Great show, beautiful to see all four original elements of hip hop being shown. The DJ, The Emcee, The Graffiti Artist, and The B-Boy/Girl were all well represented in Part 1.
 
man I cant lie this is a good as show each episode got better and better

this is like a black version of a 70/80s Spielberg kids adventure movie
 
I love how each episode begins with nas rapping a recap, or rapping about what's about to happen. Fucking love this show. This is hip hop as fuck. The Kung fu references are dope yet hilarious. Graffiti is dope as hell and they really hot the 70s new York down perfectly.
