You may be asking both how it’s been 50 whole years and how it’s only been 50 years since the Bronx community of MCs first turned Jazz and Blues records into a sound that would become a cultural movement. Across the decades, Hip-Hop has grown to transcend music and time, paying homage to the moments and places where it was made, and becoming a platform of innovation, creation, and expression. Whether you’ve been part of it from the beginning or you are just starting your journey into the genre, there’s never been a better time to discover the past and present of Hip-Hop. Join us as we celebrate 50 years and dive into the major moments, themes, and people who make it such a force.
