CLASSIC HIP-HOP MOVIE INTRO

Posted: Wednesday, January 27, 2010 | | Labels: , , ,





This intro is clean.  It is one of my favorite movie intros of all-time.  The project that was the Crooklyn Dodgers crafted two classic Hip-Hop songs for two movie soundtracks; Clockers and Crooklyn.  The 1994 trio of Masta Ace, Buckshot, and Special Ed (see video below) for Crooklyn, exemplified the 70s Brooklyn feel and aesthetic while remaining authentically Hip-Hop.  The 95' trio for Clockers was Chubb Rock, O.C., and Jeru Tha Damaja.  This track personified Spike Lee's love for jazz as well as the street appeal the movie, which chronicles drug trafficking in Brooklyn.  Enjoy the videos and the music.  Side note, I didn't really like 9th Wonder's 2007 version so that's why it isn't in here.
