The Holy Church of Hip-hop



I just got back from a showing of Planet B-boy, and to trot out a hoary cliché non-ironically, it's the feel good movie of the year. It's hard not to walk away believing that hip-hop -- as an aesthetic movement that champions non-violent conflict resolution and freedom of expression in a truly inclusive, secular context -- could very well save the world. I know, that's a lot to heap on the shoulders of The Jimmy Castor Bunch, but in their words, it's just begun. Go embrace New York City's greatest gift to the world at a theater near you.
