Ange Mitchell from the Neon joined Evan Miller on Midday Music to discuss the screening, along with Basim Blunt, director of the WYSO’s Eichelberger Center for Community Voices and host of Behind The Groove. Directed by Stan Lathan and produced by Harry Belefontaine, Beat Street was one of the first mainstream films to depict New York City’s hip hop culture. “It’s a very in-depth view into how hip-hop culture changed the scene in the 1980s, and how it affected the lives of young people on the scene,” Ange said. Basim, who grew up just outside of New York City, talks about seeing Beat Street when it was first released and about how Hip Hop has gone global in the four decades since.
