Playlist:  History and Concept of Hip-Hop Dance by Danielle Sargent, Alexander Street

The documentary History and Concept of Hip-Hop Dance explores the history and scope of the Hip-Hop dance style. The movement is also studied as a global marketing phenomenon: despite its popularity, Hip-Hop struggles to define its historical lineage, concept, origins, aesthetics, and generational acceptance.

Read more about Hip-Hop's history in contemporaneous Dance Magazine issues and articles presenting profiles on Rennie Harris, Puremovement, krumping, and Dinita Clark.
