Born Free: Hip Hop in Johannesburg (Noisey Documentary)

Noisey Explores Hip Hop In South Africa In New Documentary.

Noisey are back with yet another interesting documentary investigating international rap. They explore hip-hop in Johannesburg during this new must-watch.

A new generation of artists in South Africa have risen to prominence this year, celebrating their roots and returning to their individual cultures. It sounds similar to the so-called grime resurgence we experienced here in the UK. Watch the documentary above to see how the artists are “reshaping the sense of identity of South Africa’s youth and expressing what it means to be born free”.

Of course it’s not just hip-hop in Johannesburg that Noisey have covered recently. Watch their recent exploits in Palestine and Israel here too.
