3.15 NZ Hip Hop Stand Up director Sophie Musgrove
NZ HIP HOP STAND UP season 2 continues on from Season 1 of exploring the greatest songs released over the 30 year history of hip hop in Aotearoa.
Season 2 starts off in 1994 with ‘Hip Hop Holiday’ by Three the Hard Way and ends in 2018 with ‘Set it Off’ by JessB. We have the major players in Aotearoa’s Hip Hop back again to discuss these tracks and share their valuable knowledge and memories.
It is a celebration of an art form that has helped shape our country and musical heritage, featuring interviews with over 30 artists from across the 30 year history of Aotearoa hip hop. These artists share their stories about their songs, their experiences and the positive effects of Hip Hop in communities all around Aotearoa. Which, in turn, created role models for many young New Zealanders searching for a culture that resonated with them.
Sophie has had a very intrepid career as a documentary director. Her breadth of experience and knowledge across both technical and production sides of the industry makes her a huge asset on set. Her open personality and disarming approach gets the best out of people on both sides of the camera, allowing for moments of true authenticity.
She joins Charlotte to discuss the series
