Hip-Hop Evolution (2016– )
9/10
A great look into how hip hop/rap music came to be but needs more
11 December 2016
I really enjoyed this look into the origins of hip hops origins, from the instrumentation to the fashion everything is covered really well. My only problem with it is it ends without mentioning 2 of the biggest evolutions in hip hop history and that's The Notorious BIG and Tupc Shakur, my guess is that they're saving that content for hopefully a second season but right now this is just missing a big story. To be fair though both of those men have passed so the information needed to really get a solid amount of history is gone.

I would also love for a potential second season to talk about the rise of Southern hip hop and the explosion of what is now the driving force of what hip hop is to this day. Outside of that I really liked this, one of the best documentaries I've ever seen. I would recommend Ice-T's the Art of Rap documentary to anyone that enjoyed this also very good.
