Episode 3: Classic Storytellers
October 15, 2005 • 44 min
The art of storytelling has been central to hip hop music since its inception. Whether focusing on MC skills, light hearted tales from the hood, or critiques of social conditions, early storytellers provided a window into hip hop's origins. Ralph and Tiffani travel to Washington Square Park in the Village for this episode of The Bridge featuring videos from old school hip hop's greatest storytellers, including Doug E. Fresh, Slick Rick and Biz Markie.
