Synopsis

WHAT'S YOUR HIP-HOP? is a global documentary series created and hosted by multi-platinum producer and music executive MICHAEL "G-DIZ" KELLY. Traveling across countries and cultures, Kelly meets entrepreneurs, craftspeople, innovators, survivors and others whose lives carry an unexpected connection to hip hop.

Each episode follows one person into the places, experiences and defining moments that made them who they are, uncovering the role the culture played along the way. Hip hop may have opened an opportunity, influenced an ambition, offered a language for something difficult to express or provided the soundtrack to years of work, struggle and discovery.

MICHAEL "G-DIZ" KELLY brings thirty-five years inside hip hop to these conversations, from making records and working with artists to a long career within the infrastructure of the music industry. His journey provides an unusually personal point of entry into a much larger cultural history.

Across cities, professions, generations and communities around the world, WHAT'S YOUR HIP-HOP?  traces the distance hip hop has traveled through the people who absorbed it, carried it with them and made it part of their own lives. Their experiences reveal the extraordinary reach of a culture whose influence continues to be felt far beyond the places where it began.
