Just saw "Living the Hiplife" a great 1 hour doc on Ghanaian hiplife (hiphop with sampled highlife music) done with the godfather of Ghanaian hiplife and hiphop Reggie Rockstone.
Historical footage is remixed with studio and concert material painting a portrait of urban culture in Accra’s streets. The film ties political history together with vibrant musical life to look at the economic hopes and musical dreams of young Ghanaians as they confront the realities of corporate sponsorship, political change, and international hopes. This film was shot in Standard DV between 2003-6 with a small Ghanaian and American film and audio crew.
