Rap City

Dir. Glenn Holsten and Lisa Marie Russo (1988) 27 min.

Rap City (1988), directed by Glenn Holsten and Lisa Marie Russo, spotlights Philadelphia and features rare and candid footage of Illadelph legends DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince and Schoolly-D, as well as then-rising female emcee Yvette Money.

Writing on the Wall

Dir. Sandra King (1986) 28 min.

Writing On the Wall (1986), directed by Sandra King, tells the poignant story of a young Newark, NJ graffiti artist, MIKAH, struggling to make a name for himself. But the film also wins big points for historical significance by presenting a snapshot of legendary New York City cult figure, KEO – graf writer, artist and designer, and emcee – while still a teenaged member of MIKAH’s crew.
