We are excited to share Chromium composer Thomas Farnon has recently provided the score for the BBC’s brand new four-part music documentary “Fight the Power: How Hip Hop Changed The World”.
Executive produced by Hip Hop legend, Chuck D, and his producing partner, Lorrie Boula, the series will “tell the story of the relationship between politics and the Hip Hop movement, recounting the origins of the revolutionary artform through first-hand accounts and charting the journey of how Hip Hop became a cultural phenomenon, against a backdrop of social and political American history.
Throughout the series, the way in which Hip Hop quickly created a provocative narrative of America is explored by weaving together interconnected moments via intimate interviews with integral players in the movement and archival footage.” ~ BBC Media Centre
The first episode aired on BBC Two on Saturday 21st January 2023. The series is a BBC Studios Docs production for BBC Music and BBC Two in partnership with PBS.
