So I recently saw this 5 part documentary that talks about the evolution of the Jamaican soundsystem and its global influence on other music forms like UK Garage and Hip-Hop music (check out this post on the soundsystem in the UK for another perspective). Its definitely worth peeping… check for cameos from Kool Herc and Grand Master Flash.

Check for the rest of the clips inside.
