Video: Interview with Martha Cooper (Subway Art - The Hiphop Files - Street Play)

Filed under: the latest, Interviews, Video, On-Point TV - =lloyd= @ 9:16 pm

Last week’s interview with Martha Cooper was one of the nicest in a long time. So nice I forgot some of my questions, what can I say, I’m an amateur…

Martha Cooper gained international recognization for her pioneering photos of early hiphop culture, being the first ever to capture graffiti and breakdancing.

The final edit ended up being over 10 minutes of video, in which I didn’t want to cut, so take your time, watch, listen or in other words: check it out. And spread the word if you’re feeling it:


Check out her latest book Street Play, The Hiphop Files, We B* Girlz and Subway Art, for some classic material!

Special thanks to Incr1 for the illustrations (mail), digitalovers.net, mr.Ego, Eastpak and the FromHereToFame people, for publishing Martha’s work of course!

  8. Info on Pigeon Control

    It is tiresome attempting to consider the hours we’ve spent tracking down pigeon info web pages.
