Description

From the Pavement to the Culture: Hip-Hop’s Early Days takes listeners back to where the movement was born — the pavement.

Before record deals, before radio spins, before social media — hip-hop lived outside. It was block parties, boom boxes, broken microphones, and pure imagination.

Narrated by DJ Vinyl Richie, curator of The Hustlers Archive, this documentary explores how the rhythm, rebellion, and resilience of the streets created a global culture.

Produced and presented by Hustlers Lounge, this piece highlights the early days, the real stories, and the raw hustle that built an empire out of sound.
