Midway: The Story of Chicago Hip-Hop
Midway: The Story of Chicago Hip-Hop is a feature-length documentary film telling the story of the evolution, struggles and triumphs of hip-hop culture and its community of artists and personalities in Chicago. From the late-70s graffiti and dance scene to today’s successes of Kanye West and Chance the Rapper, Midway digs deeper than most stories of similar topic and looks to reverse the general negative stereotypes of hip-hop culture to show how it brought people together – regardless of race, gang affiliation or socioeconomic background while introducing audiences to many talented, often overlooked artists – musicians, graffiti artists, dancers, graphic designers, photographers and more.
