Radio Documentary: Headland & Delowe: ATL Hip Hop from ‘79- ‘til
Interesting, peep the science:
"It’s here. The first official episode in my documentary series about ATL Hip Hop.
The city of Atlanta has a complex and long history with Hip Hop going back into the late 1970’s.
Much of this history pre-LaFace records, pre-Outkast and GooDie MoB isn’t known. Headland & Delowe is a documentary series attempting to weave together the story lines of the artists, managers, promoters and journalists from the ATL Hip Hop scene over the past three decades to get an understanding of where Atlanta Hip Hop has been and where it might be going.
In this episode I speak with pioneers like B-Boy Zapper of ATL’s HBO crew, MC Shy D and DJ Jelly, current stars like Cee-lo, Pill and DJ Mars and underground stalwarts like Senor Kaos and H20.
All the music featured in this episode is Hip Hop from the City of Atlanta."
