hip hop
Storyboard Text
- James Mcbride said that he tried to avoid hip hop every chance he got . He dreaded having to be stopped next to the music . When waiting next to an intersection.
- James Mcbride said "And so I curse the dayI saw his face, which is a reflection of my own, and I rue the day I heard his name,because I realize to my horror that rap—music seemingly without melody, sensibility,instruments, verse, or harmony, music with no beginning, end, or middle, music thatdoesn’t even seem to be music—rules the world. It is no longer my world. It is hisworld. And I live in it. I live on a hip-hop planet."
- Some call the Bronx River Houses the City of Gods, though if God has been by lately, he must’ve slipped out for a chicken sandwich. The 10 drab, red-brick buildings spread out across 14 acres (5.7 hectares), coming into view as you drive east across the East 174th Street Bridge. The Bronx is the hallowed holy ground of hip-hop, the place where it all began. Visitors take tours through this neighborhood now, care of a handful of fortyish “old-timers,” who point out the high and low spots of hip-hop’sbirthplace.
