I AM HIP-HOP
Despite what the mainstream says, we know that the gay community and hip-hop go together like a phat beat and a tight rhyme. Like any family, the relationship has often been fraught with joy, pain, misunderstanding, falls from grace and in some cases redemption. Hip-Hop is the culture that has changed the rhythm of the world, and the gay community has been there every step of the way. From big name artists to struggling gay MCs; from Lil’ Kim to Wendy Williams drama; from Busta Rhymes’ gender bending outfits to the controversy in dancehall, this new, daring series goes where no show on any network has ever gone before.
