Homeless hip hop from Brooklyn

26 May, 2009  |  Written by Andre Francisco  |  under Uncategorized, Video

In the style of Mark Horvath’s Invisible People.tv is D-Nice’s True Hip Hop  video series on Vimeo. D-Nice has about a dozen ten-minute interviews with people he feels represent true hip hop, as opposed to some more famous and mainstream artists. Among these interviews is a homeless emcee in Brooklyn who goes by Sawed Off. His interview happens on the street near the river where he hangs out and is as much about his story of homelessness as it is about his vision of the world of hip hop.

The video is visually intriguing and Sawed Off is a fascinating and honest character. I highly recommend it. Check it out below and check out D-Nice’s Vimeo page for more True Hip Hop videos.
