HIP HOP EVOLUTION - SEASON 4 (2020)

Southern underground scenes, super producers and mixtapes shape the sound while Pharrell Williams, Kanye West and 50 Cent push the culture forward.

S04E01 Bounce to This
Rooted in New Orleans's rich music culture, No Limit mogul Master P and bounce breakouts DJ Jimi and Juvenile shake rap and put twerking on the map.

S04E02 The Southern Lab
Innovators explode out of the South: Houston's DJ Screw slows hip-hop down, Memphis's Three 6 Mafia goes dark, and Atlanta's Lil Jon brings the crunk.

S04E03 The Super Producers
Auteurs like the Neptunes' Pharrell and Chad expand the sonic palette. Timbaland and Missy Elliott lean forward. Kanye West and J Dilla reimagine rap.

S04E04 Street Dreams
Mixtapes spread the hottest sounds, infringe copyright and break artists. Among them, 50 Cent polarizes, T.I. takes off with trap, and Lil Wayne clicks.
