I've lived in NYC for more than 45 yrs and I've seen A LOT of fantastic art shows, but this one was a total MIND-BLOWING experience!! Here I am in 2021 STILL talking about it, several years after the show!!
I wish I had a time machine cuz I'd go to 1970-1980s NYC!!! I'm blessed that I was born in 1980 and lived during the 1990s Hip-Hop golden age and buying every Wu album on release day. But 1980s NYC graffiti was an awesome time!!! I watched Style Wars religiously til.this day. That documentary changed my life. I was born and raised in Nor Cali Bay Area but I've always loved NYC hip-hop culture!!! Don't get me wrong SF and Oakland are awesome cities and I love Bay Hip-hop, Hiero all day. But NYC style just spoke to me
Rammellzee did things that definitely fit the definition of alchemy. It’s because he took thrown away items and turned them into artworks or implements that he then sold. That completely fits the definition of alchemy. This is a pretty cool mini lecture about this equation that I’ve always been fond of. THANKS FOR SHARING!!
this personifies all the elements of hip hop
RAMMELLE was beyond HIP-HOP in fact it didn't even exist yet. We were called Beat Boys or B-Boys in the early 80's

He was a master artist
Rammellzee. Truly prolific! Real artist. Nice work putting all the pieces together! Inspirational without a doubt!
Far Rock, Graf Art, NYC and Hip Hop Legend!!!! This brother makes me proud to rep Far Rockaway
I live in Jamaica now, but always feel more at home in Far Rock. I used to live in Edgemere.
Incredible job you guys did on this... such a great testament to the legendary RAMMELLZEE.
Far Rockaway Stand up and Salute a legend! RIP RAMM!
life is what you make it. literally. make it.
great video. I wish more writers were aware of rammellzee
One of A Kind
Don't understand how Basquiat.....a talent no doubt....can get so many docs books t shirts movie but Rammellzee gets nothing....someone explain this to me please
He slept with art dealers. Period. Basquiat was a no talent, psuedo-intellectual sociopath. You can see he clearly stole many of his concepts of salvaging garbage and the cryptic language on canvas from Rammellzee. Except it was all a pretentious, hollow rip off.
@@mr.enigma4475 Except that Basquiat ran with Rammellzee and they collaborated together, although there was always tension between them. So Basq didn't rip him off but more like continued some of his work in his own way. If you don't know, you shouldn't comment.
@@mr.enigma4475 Exactly Basquiat was sleeping with Andy Warhol that introduce him to the 'art people'...
LOL You are still full of illusions, in the art world talent in nothing , but it's about the network you have , if you're friend with the good people you can do the worst stuff on earth they gonna push it and you gonna find you way. Exactly what Basquiat had, this man is talentless sorry but he was sleeping with Andy Warhol that pushed him a lot...That's all what happened.
Make a longer one: ∞
Was thinking the same thing. This is a great piece, but someone so wildly creative deserves a feature length tribute.
More Fire RAMMELLZEE!!! such a prolific pioneer of our culture
I'm referring to Hip-Hip , Graffiti and Art Culture in general.... He is still influencing / inspiring and will for generations to come! "Our" as in ONE if you really want to know about unit of culture as it is ours and we are together as one.
Massive fan of his work & ethos, rest in POWER RAM.
Fresh!
What a trully amazing tallented man. Sadly missed R.I.P.
The King.... Amazing video great work x RIP Rammell
As a kid, my fav part of Wild Style was at the Amphitheater and Rammellzee was on the mic with gun in hand, always thought it should have went on longer, the beat was sick, his flow was different- I rewound and watched it a thousand times!
This was great, thank you.
Yes! Between him holding the gun spitting and shouting out rocksteady crew by individual names, it was the best part of that classic
I'll be at that amphitheatre in the new year. Can't wait, just to stand there and transport myself into that moment.
Don't forget cypress hill samples his voice from wildstyle on "hand on the pump"
AMAZING!!! just incredible work and so exciting to watch ...
Rammelzee musical style is simiilar to Kool Kieth who is a legend and fore father of Hip-Hop!!! Rammelzees mask are legendary tho!!
This show was completely incredible. Well done. So many dimensions.
The spiritual origin of DOOM
One of the Greatest Of All Time!!!
This is awesome! So much unseen footage, amazing video red bull academy
Unbelievable 👑
Style innovator🎨
Jetsons on roids straight up 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤟
All praises due to the Rammellzee! R.I.P. OG!
Grandmaster! I am happy and proud to have met you. Our joint work was just great. The necklace that you artfully made and gave to me always reminds me of that time. RIP my friend. TRAP TWO aka Ayhan S
Thank you Red Bull Music! Learned so much about someone from a different era from this!
The great RAMM, I think, would be proud of this mysterious glimpse into the mind of a transcendental genius... thank you for this.
The essence of graffiti manifested in flesh and blood. All hail the Gothic Futurist king RAMMELLZEE.
I love that this channel shows the real classic from the golden era ;)
Miss the era
OMbeyondGod!!! Thank you for sharing this history.

Graffiti comes to Life.
I'M 41

Dang whats that last song?
Wonder where Beastie Boys and Cypress Hill got that nasal style of rap? Rammellzee baby the first nasal rapper 😁
Please what is the name of the classic songs that were used in this documentary?
Now I know where Kool Keith got his style.
such effortless powerful creativity. rammellzee forever. shouts out to red bull music for coming through with production value and giving the light of day to this entity we know as Rammellzee. dope. - ProProducerBeats
BReal's from Cypress Hills inspiration 4:52
Now I know where the "Beastie boys" got those samples!

I kinda feel like Saban owes my man some royalties from .. um idk POWER RANGERS! lol
I drink 40's
So how do you want it.. Let me know!41once
more hip hop artists need to embrace wearing masks to enchance their persona. with him and DOOM gone now, its a dying artform. Ram was ahead of the game in lightyears and conversations, artisically also.

Pesquiso o Afrofuturismo em canções brasileiras e parei aqui por conta da entrevista do Mark Dery "De volta para o afrofuturo" porque ele mencionou o Rammallzee e simplesmente chapei.
Seeing the gender swap makes mebthink differently
Ramellzee currently chillin' on another astral plane shall return to this planet (post-corona) as an interstellar sorcerer of mathematical and hyper-psychedelic belovedness
