Hip-Hop: Beyond Beats & Rhymes provides a riveting examination of manhood, sexism, and homophobia in hip-hop culture. Byron Hurt, former star college quarterback and longtime hip-hop fan, directs this “loving critique” of rap music. The critically-acclaimed documentary features interviews with rappers Mos Def, Fat Joe, Chuck D, Jadakiss, and Busta Rhymes; hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons; and cultural commentators such as Michael Eric Dyson and Beverly Guy-Sheftall.
