Through the Years... is a four-part series exploring hip-hop's roots and pioneers. Volume 1, \"Graffiti,\" takes an intelligent, though New York-centric look at the origins of \"writing\" and its evolution from ghetto youth crime to splashy art-world staple. Well-chosen footage illustrates the differences among a \"tag,\" a \"burner,\" and a \"full car,\" while living legends Seen and Vulcan discuss their careers and those of Lee Quinones; the late, great Dondi; and Phase 2, whom Vulcan calls the greatest graffiti artist of all time. Wild Style director Charlie Ahearn and the ubiquitous Kevin Powell place the phenomenon within a sociological context. Seven classic music videos, including Run DMC's \"Rock Box\" and Rob Base's \"It Takes Two,\" add a nice touch to an inspiring production. --Rebecca Levine\n\nProduct Description\n\nThis 90-minute feature tells the tale of Hip-Hop through a four-part documentary series entitled \"The Architects.\" The story is told chronologically and right from the mouths of the greats.
