The 1979 documentary "80 Blocks from Tiffany's" is a fascinating slice-of-life look at two South Bronx gangs, the Savage Skulls and the Savage Nomads. Although this isn't the most hip hop film we've ever discussed, there are some interesting tidbits about the conditions from which hip hop emerged.
Topics discussed:- There isn't much plot line or narrative, but the glimpses of how these gangs operated are entertaining
- We enjoyed the scenes with local resident Joan Butler
- There are a few examples of hip hop elements - can you spot them?
- If you do watch this film, watch Rubble Kings after
