SPOTIFY: RAP CAVIAR HIP HOP CLASSICS

A series of short stylized interviews for Spotify celebrating each region’s history and impact in rap music featuring Lupe Fiasco, Twista, Havoc, Big Boi, Birdman, Too $hort, and B-Real.

Directed by Red Gaskell

“From the lyrics to the swag, the South brought a unique style to hip-hop in the late '90s with Cash Money, No Limit and more”

“Put some respect on legends like B-Real, Too Short, and more who helped the West Coast dominate hip-hop in the early ‘90s”

“Let Lupe and Twista take you to school 📝 This is Midwest hip-hop history”

“What do Nas, Biggie, Wu-Tang Clan, and Mobb Deep all have in common? They ran the streets of New York in the mid-90s”
